Iβm 37 and with medication and various time management strategies I actually managed to build a pretty normal life. So there is hope, just donβt expect to be the hyper-organized productivity machine you think you need to be.
To be fair, I managed it quite well without any medication.
I got really lucky and usually had a lot of space and freedom at work etc.
So, most of the time, I did the usual ADHD stuff, being there but not really focused, so also not really productive.
But because I had so much freedom, it was pretty easy to compensate during the more focused hours.
Also, the broad knowledge I obtained about random stuff just by wondering around was usually well-received and often helpful.
Unfortunately, that doesn't really work anymore in my current situation.. So thinking about getting an appointment at a doctor to get some medication started.
But.. well.. don't like doctors in the first place, my last diagnosis was when I was 9 or so, so I probably need a new one. And there are waiting lists of months because they are just full, and procrastination and so on...
Not really anything there that actually pushes me to do so :/
27 now.. still believe.. π
