With so many disorder Tiktoks around I can’t help but fail to spot the difference between having actual ADHD vs just having poor focus habits.
I myself have trouble focusing on tasks but I doubt I actually have ADHD given the recent surge of disorder Tiktoks - tho I do have autism - and that my focus is typically normal on tasks I devote to like gaming.
Treatment for ADHD is lifelong. It is like diabetes, when you give a person with diabetes insulin, they will feel better and be a different person, but they cannot just simply stop taking insulin.
I do still take stimulant daily. It is the exact same dosage that me and my doctor worked to find a long while ago. I have no desire to take more, and I no longer have side effects or very minor ones since they petter off after a few months.
It is possible for people to come off stimulants if they wish, but that is rare, and mostly pointless since it’s not as if ADHD is magically going to disappear. It essentially becomes a Plato’s cave scenario.
It’s a shame that you’ve got to think about taking them everyday but I suppose it becomes habit? And great news that you’ve found the right dosage.
It’s just a habit. You just take one pill as soon as you wake up, that’s it. Same as vitamins, or you can do it with breakfast.
