They’ve known that ADHD causes fibromyalgia since at least 2005. They also know that around 80% of all fibro cases are misdiagnosed bc it’s primarily women who get the diagnosis. We also know that the MAJORTY of all girls weren’t diagnosed as kids or treated for it. Decades of misdiagnosis, lack of medication, lack of treatment for the genetic sleep disorders linked to having ADHD are massively detrimental to the lives of women and the children of those women.

Not doing something, hating yourself for not doing it, but being unable to make yourself do it until it’s an emergency.

I need to get evaluated because "exhausted at the end of the day after trying to force my brain to do something it doesn't do" describes like 70% of my days

I literally cried the first day I took my meds when I remembered I needed to grab the mail after I came home with groceries. I put away all the groceries in less than 5 minutes, REMEMBERED to go get the mail, went outside and got it, came back inside and sorted it, and then realized I didn't need to consciously think about any of it. I didn't have to remember every little step, I just did it.

I vividly remember doing my homework in 3rd grade and it was a huge page of math problems that I absolutely could do. But it physically hurt to even try.

Yes the grieving after being medicated after having the hardest life is insane. It’s been a year and I still cry about it

I was medicated from Kindergarten through Sophomore year in HS. Im tempted to try again, but the meds as a child upset me. I felt dead and didn't eat.

meds gave me such a better quality of life. I had chronic fatigue, I could never get started, things were on HARD mode. when I took meds, things were still challenging, but they were on medium mode. I got medicated at 30, I desperately wish that I would have been medicated. I had every single coping mechanism and lifestyle adjustment and it still wasn't enough

i have one friend who i'm effectively 100% sure is somehow neurotypical and one time he was complaining about having a ton of college work due and i was like "shit im sorry what's the game plan??" and he was like "well i'll just do it" and i was like ..... oh you're just Annoyed ... NOT terrified and insinuating a long, late night full of nauseating levels of dread and psychological pain

don't remember where i heard this but, "being lazy feels good" if it is stressful that you aren't doing it but you still can't get yourself up, that's not laziness it's executive dysfunction
