Sharing and Connecting

Hi guys, what i find immensely depressing is not having people to share my little daily obstacles with people who understand what it's like to take medication and the affects it has on functionality and mind. Would love to create a community, if you wish to join me so we can support each other do let me know!

Hi Bella, I am not on medication now but I know it's right for a lot of people. Maybe you can share here. I read about there being face to face support groups out there, maybe that would also be good. I want to look into that myself.

Hi BellaX,

Welcome to the group. We all have our own stories of how we arrived here. I too have ADHD and fight depression...many times a coexisting condition. There are a lot more of us out there than you think. It's just a matter of connecting to the right one(s). On the topic of medication management...I think it needs constant attention to get it right. Nobody has the correct formula for any individual...most are just assuming it's working okay. You've come to the right place. We're all here to help each other!

Hi there, I'm Julie. I haven't been clinically diagnosed, but my eleven year old son has, and I am pretty sure I have ADD. Anyways, I really would like an on line support group and face to face if I could find it.

HI guys, I did join a support group on facebook and to be honest its making a bit of a difference, the plus of it is that i feel less weird about symptoms and stuff like that when others relate their stories. And even through offering support, i sort of help myself in the process too. It's really wonderful how when we come together we can make a difference. My biggest dilemma was not feeling productive and functional, but in helping and offering pointers with stuff i've already experienced, i find that hey i've learnt something useful in the process. I am struggling with anxiety at the moment, really hinders my mobility, and the ADD medication gives me insomnia, but i mean i guess the latter is just something i need to learn to live with. Thanks for your replies.

I love sharing on here and I love getting responses. I don’t have anyone to talk to about my ADHD life and I have to put so much effort in and if I didn’t have this site I would be living with it all along. Please post and share, I’ll follow you and I’ll post with you. What is your thought of the day?

I am new here, did you start a community for this? I see the posts are a year old, but this is what I am looking for. Just sharing and connecting.

Hi I found dealing with ADHD is easy when you are accountable and want someone to be with you, your mind just work in co operation and this helps a lot, I tried many techniques to make executive function easy for us , did improve 80% of my work efficiency. Feel free to share your day to day basis and we togety make agroup where people like us stay together and talk their strategy to deal . We also discuss books , methods, and understanding. Anyone love to join can msg me
