God I wanna make so much art (drawing/painting/wood carving/crochet/build things/etc), make comics, learn languages, learn how to deep clean and power wash, garden, make clothes, make fursuits, travel, hike, forage, make youtube videos, go urban exploring, go ghost hunting, animate, preserve animal skeletons and insects, etc etc.

But I’m so perpetually exhausted that even just planning out an idea takes a lot out of me, and it feels so unfair.

Thankfully medication has helped out a looot (I mean the difference between taking genuinely months to do anything vs being able to do so within a week or even a day if lucky is quite an improvement) but it’s not gonna make me superhuman any time soon ^^;

    If you know you have ADHD, give the meds a go and then decide.

    Imagine if in 30 years you finally try them and see what life could have been like. If they are not for you, no problem.

    It’s funny as the other commenter said about the dependence thing - most other drugs make you unproductive, and so they are harmful to you fulfilling your life goals. This is kinda different, and there are many days where I just go without because I feel like being lazy or just kicking around doing whatever.
