What is it like to have AD(H)D robots ? I think i may have it

oririririginal bump

Not fun at all. In my case, amphetamines only made things worse.

Before starting medication, I sounded close to what you are experiencing. I then found a doctor and after a long series of tests got put on a script for Adderall and Vyvanse. They helped in the short term but eventually I couldn't handle how robotic of a person it made me. Conversations with people would make me furious - sounds had become to drive me to wits end. I lost a relationship I had been in for a number of years because I had literally become a different person.

After that happened, I gave up medication and started exercising more. It helps in a different way. - I still have the same issues as before, plus conversation is really really hard to follow (although alcohol helps a lot with this). I'm married now, so things must have improved...

It's awful; the most frustrating is that I can completely forget what it is that I was doing and it takes painful concentration to remember. People who don't have ADHD and say it isn't real, simply don't understand how maddening it is that you can't do basic human functions simply because you can't remember any immediate thing.

maybe i also hape it op 2 people have said i have it never know man haha you know about it?

same kek

this is why i always use notepad everytime, backup shit etc write on the notepad what i'm supposed to 'search' on google or 4chan for instance to don't forget about it

thats insane, i was already 'paranoid' but now it became even worse

always triple checking things like when u close the door, since u will almost never had the 'memento' that u rly close it, u think u created it or something because thats a daily routine for u

Well I might have might have ADHD I have the same symptoms as you and my brother has autism not severe autism do apparently many of my relatives have autism I think my father has it too but I'm not sure so you might have autism and I might have autism

Having ADHD is not that bad actually you just have to focus a bit more than usual

It makes me angry, forgetting what I was about to do or even when I'm in the middle of doing something, I forget what I'm doing. Trying to do work is also pretty maddening, work is something that requires concentration and with ADHD that isn't something you have a lot of. You just have to try harder at life.

Having ADHD is like not being able to focus on any one thing for very long. The length of time you can manage to devote to any given task or thought is roughly proportional to the amount of interest you have in it. As a child it is far more pronounced and obvious but starts to slow down in most with practice and age. If it remains severe into adulthood, it's known simply as adult ADHD and is more or less the same. It also tends to affect conversation, as your thoughts will jump all over the place--and so will the conversation as you change the subject multiple times.

The real fun is in having ADHD and obsessive compulsive disorder at the same time.

When I was a kid I was obnoxious as fuck, constantly yelling and running around. As soon as I got into middle school I checked myself and was able to control it, but it manifested itself in needing stimulus by shaking my leg, arm, or just moving around. When I used to sit in class I would constantly shift my position, crossing my legs, or moving into a seemingly uncomfortable position.

The worst part about ADD is forgetting what you JUST did, it's fucking crazy.
>put down keys to do something else real quick
>forget I put them down and leave the house
>can't find my keys and can't remember where I left
>searching ensues
>turn on all the lights to help
>finally find it
>leave my house with all the lights on
>tfw theres no winning

The best combo is:
>autism
>bpd
>adhd
>severe suicidal depression
>insomnia

It sucks so fucking much.

Extreme temper and emotions, black and white thinking, sensitive to everything, can't even focus on things you love, want to do 100000 thousands things but never finish or get deep into it, always change hobbies, can't organize and stick to a plan, always late, always saying stupid shit, everyone thinks that you are slow in head, forgetful, easily irritated, prone to addiction, impulsive as FUCK and have no self control

holy fuck, i genuinely chuckled. This sounds very similar to my ritual before I leave the house. There's no winning

I have the better version of adderall, straight dexamphetamine. Has helped me infinitely with life, and I only have mild inattentive subtype.
Honestly life is so easy with it. Also have had some fun w it. If you feel like you'd benefit from it I'm sure your (((doctor))) will 'think' about writing a script for the medication he's paid to give oht.

I have ADD but any time I've been prescribed meds I just end up abusing them.

its basically like this songtext:

"You ever been in such a fog you don't know you?
Never being able to do the shit you're supposed to?
I wouldn't wish it on anyone that I'm close to
Wouldn't wish it on anybody that I'm opposed to
There's not an accurate diagnosis to show you
Basic neurobiology isn't close to it
I'm watching life as a spectator
I can't help myself, even though I possessed data
It's not a part of my spirit to want to test nature"
