Motivation is my worst enemy.

Memes like this are why I asked to be screened for ADHD as an adult. Thanks for this. Vyvanse is the best thing to have ever happened to me, when I can find it.
Combine ADHD with BED and #ThisIsWhyImFat. “I want to lose weight and get healthy”…”too fucking bad”.
Can you elaborate a bit?
The meme's from this sub often do resonate with me, but I had understand that most of these things are commonly experienced by people just generally, but a diagnosis of ADHD will depend on the degree to which these things are experienced, and the harm they're causing.
I do struggle with my mental health, (as in, struggling to be productive because I'm paralyzed by anxiety), but thus far (I'm 41) I've managed to hold it together. I've built my own small business with a few staff. IDK if I'd call it "successful" but it's enough to provide for my family so I must be "functional" in some capacity.
I'd love to be diagnosed with whatever thing that is easily treatable with whatever drug that will cure all that ails me, but having been on and off SNRIs and SSRIs over the last few decades, I know that's a promise that meds rarely fulfil.
Some of these memes are scarily accurate to me, I'm very seriously considering getting a diagnosis.
Do it. Whats the worst that could happen, you find out you’re normal?
Or you could self assess first. The diagnostic criteria is public knowledge.
My wife tried to talk me out of it, talking about Ritalin zombies from elementary school. Honestly if anything, compared to my baseline I feel like a superhuman when my SSRIs and amphetamines kick in. Then I realize that that’s what “normal” is supposed to feel like.
