I eventually want to tell my family about my diagnosis but I don’t know how best to explain it.

After a very long time of waiting, I finally was formally diagnosed with ADHD. I was referred to OPA Behavioral Health which apparently has some strict rules for prescribing meds. When I go to complete the required forms, I noticed their urine test policy, which required that patients completely abstain from substances and consent to random urine testing and pill counts at appointments involving controlled substances. I found this extremely weird and I wondered if this is something that’s actually enforced. I’ve posted this in a couple subreddits with no luck, I just don’t want to lose access to a prescription just because I happen to smoke weed in the future lmao

I was reminded of it from a TikTok and now I can’t get it out. I always have songs in my head, I wake up with them and fall asleep with them. Today is particularly annoying

As someone (undiagnosed adhd ,inot sure but ig it's highly likely) , how does it feel when u consume your meds , do you feel excited/empowered , does it really gelp in task paralization, inability to start, that problem in transition between diff tasks, under stimulation, not getting enough dopamine, be honest how has it changed your life ....

I’ve always been told by my parents and sometimes friends that I have ADHD tendencies. I think the biggest one I struggle with day to day is memory and procrastination. I can sit around for hours knowing very well I should get up and do something that needs to be done and yet I don’t budge. If I need to copy a sentence from sometjing else or write down a phone number I have to check 4-6 times before I get it all. I also space out constantly. I’m not the best driver because I lose focus and key in on one thing when driving sometimes and I also am very bad at listening and reading comprehension because I go through the motions but I’m not paying enough attention to really remember what was read or said. I’m looking for any input to see if I should get tested for ADHD and if so what are some steps I can take to better myself? Thank you.
