There’s a drug in my life I don’t want to let go of, I seeked medical advice but I got a couple side eyes when I talked about my usage, then again when I said I had ADHD symptoms since childhood. She did make me lay down naked on our first exam after I mentioned I had pretty bad anxiety.
« So coming here today, would you say you were anxious? »
« Yes a little, but I move forward because I chose to believe in our medical system »
« Ok now I want to see your penis »
As a child I had been diagnosed but I chose not to move forward. It’s when I read the list of ADHD common symptoms and realized most of the « issues » I have with myself are all closely tied to ADHD that I wondered if i should do something about it. Sometimes I’m afraid I will make the jump and create more issues for myself. I’m doing better than I ever have through my own means and wouldn’t want to break that balance.
