honestly one of the worst things about having adhd is how i have to motivate myself to do things i actually enjoy

I mean, your mileage may vary, and I just got diagnosed like three days ago, but I just used weed. Never when I had to do the important stuff, but at the end of the day, to enjoy the things I want to enjoy, I'd have a smoke. Otherwise, they felt like just as much work as everything else.

Of course this is a pre-diagnosis coping mechanism I developed, and I'm kind of hoping that once I'm medicated I won't need to smoke weed every night to stay sane... but it does make it easy to just genuinely enjoy a relaxing thing that can suck you in.

I really don't advise it though, your lungs will thank you if you never start.

I hope this doesn't fall under discussing illicit use of medication... I'm assuming that means specifically ADD medication like Adderall, etc. but I can delete this post if it breaks the rules.
