How did you figure out? What do you do now to help you through the day? Does coffee make you sleepy?

well me, but you know it from the other day

coffee helps me but its different to ritalin. coffee gives this "in the moment" boost that is better for like workout while ritalin recalibratws my brain so I can study and do whatever I want without wanting to kms

its like coffee overclocks RAM
ritalin overclocks CPU

Let's say you took 200mg or even 300mg of coffee at low tollerance, would it be just as easy to fall a sleep for you as if you had not taken any?

I did some bullshit online testing a couple days ago and it said I might have both types of it whatever that means tbh haven't looked into it afterwards. But of course that test is probably about as accurate as an online iq test. Which is basically 0. On the big 5 I pirated the real test and took it and I got bottom 1 percentile conscientiousness, I think I don't actually have that low conscientiousness I think something might just be wrong with me.

adhd is hard to diagnose, if you have it you likely had symtomps all your life that you lived to learn it and you think its like that for others too, but its not. it has some benefits too over other people, so its a curse and blessing at same time, but mostly a curse. i filled about 500+ question questionnaire, had 3 hour talk with psychologist woman then 2x3 hour talk with psychiatrist man then they did some testing with computer and tasks too.

adhd is like your prefrontal cortex (responsible for coordinating things mostly) is underperforming and ritalin makes body direct more blood into prefrontral cortex so it can operate/sync with rest of your brain better and you can utilise it for whatever you want better

its like you have the knowledge and capabilities in your brain but you cant properly utilised it cuz you're cucked by prefrontal cortex. im not sure on the science cuz havent read about it on molecular level, but yeah the idea should be smth like this
 
They said I outgrew it lol

I've thought that my prefrontal cortex was fucked since HS. I tried coping with meditation for a couple years which helped a little but not much. I think sloped forehead might be correlated to a smaller prefrontal cortex considering that cavemen had smaller prefrontal cortexes I'm assuming. Since being even preteens I'd always be forgetting stuff before I left to school or when walking into a room. For some reason I always get along really well with other people that are diagnosed ADHD. Do you get along with other diagnosed ADHD people irl? But compared to one of my ADHD friends I could tell if I do even have it it's not as bad as his lol
