  • As someone who had a similar experience and recently went through this process (although mine was over a year of waiting), I can say it’s pretty life changing. However, even in my case of now being on ADHD medication, it’s not a magical cure-all. Sometimes you focus too hard on the wrong tasks, or you forget to take your meds, or you feel completely ready to focus but for some reason you’re still not doing the task so you beat yourself up and second guess if you actually have ADHD or are just a lazy piece of shit. So it’s great and I hope you find what you’re looking for, but in my experience the medication is like being handed a heavy sword. It has the ability to defend you, but you still need to actively learn how to use it and put the effort into wielding it. A sword won’t defend you all on its own.

    I think people are more talking about believing in scientific institutions to ensure credibility and good faith research. Not necessarily that an individual institution is credible, but more the scientific community as a whole can be relied on.

    Science is absolute, however the way we interpret and understand it isn’t flawless and at the end of the day some level of belief has to be put into the fallible people behind it.

    Absolutely no joke I would watch this all the way through.

    The biggest complaint about Hallmark is how they lack creativity and every plot is the same. I feel like the missing piece to their formula is absurdism. Like a love child between the princess switch 2: switched again meets sharknado.
