I’m 35, with diagnosed ADHD and brain scarring. My memory feels so fried and it’s almost Impossible to finish a task. Where I live it’s almost Impossible to get actual medication for something. Doc always gives herbal treatments and it helps nothing.

Is there a way to help myself without meds?

    I’m not avoiding meds, in fact I’d buy them off the streets if I could. My family doctor is into herbal treatments and old wives tales. Here it’s pretty hard to find someone that isn’t that way.

      Try out things that have stimulant effects: caffeine, exercise, horror movies. Your brain is wired for crisis and you can handle things well when in crisis…the problem is it you chase that, you have a high risk of burnout if you don’t plan down time.
