My ADHD doctor told me:

"Medication tends to be Plan Z. We do everything we can with working with your lifestyle, your habits, your thought patterns, and then consider the lowest effective dose if we need to." I liked that approach. I didn't want medication either.

Understanding how you work differently than others expect is extremely powerful.

However, eventually after MUCH STRUGGLE... I'm taking a puny 5mg generic Adderall daily...and it makes the monkey-radio stop switching channels in my brain for a minute.

A lot of people describe it like getting glasses when they didn't think they needed them. "Wait... you're supposed to be able to see all those leaves from this far?!?! WOW!"

I guess just make sure you're seeing a psychologist first, because psychiatrists are basically all ' bout 'dem pills lol.
