I was going to share this tiktok. It's someone reading about an article that talks about adhd. Oh man idk what rabbit hole i went to but it's been like 8 hours and i just remembered when another video of hers showed on my fyp

Just found this thread. Subscribed immediately so I don’t forget to.

I‘m super good at thinking Ive done that “thing” I was asked to do. Only to discover later that I only thought about doing it but never actually did.

I'm really not sure why I use pot. For a few reasons: aging, depression ( can't take anti-depressants), Introvert brain where I need to let my brain shut off the usual bs. Sometimes I feel when I use pot I can finally think things through in other ways. Although I will admit that can be a rabbit hole. It helps me to relax usually. I smoke maybe twice a week.

PS Although the main reason I wanted to talk about pot is I'm really confused about mj. Does anyone sell the cured, crushed leaves anymore and is this a dumb af question?

I guess I'll be the bearer of bad news for the ladies....ADHD worsens during menopause. Although it might be because the women entering menopause now were part of the 'only boys get ADD/ADHD era, so were never diagnosed with it, and whatever coping mechanisms we came up with seem to not work anymore. Just add it to the other joys of getting older.

I watch some of those adhd/add/nd videos, then wonder where last hour has gone.

I wrote a 3 line comment and wondered how it took me 30 minutes.

I’m trying to do a podcast. Others that I listen to have sound effects to ‘enhance’ the episode, but I find them off putting if done wrong … trying to do them in mine is making my head hurt. Not only finding the right sound that is in my when I wrote the dammed words … wondering if others with adhd/add/nd sound sensitivities prefer plain voice

I find it makes me more focused and less "oh, shiny thing!". It also slows my brain down to manageable levels so I don't feel like I have to chase after my own thoughts, haha.

It also helps with appetite, anxiety/depression, and pain, especially when it was my only form of pain management.

I'm in Canada where the government sells it, and licensed shops, and a grey market. Everyone is still selling flower, in more varieties and forms than ever before. I can get it whole, pre-ground, pre-rolled, now they're doing infused stuff, on top of all the edibles, beverages, oils, extracts, vapes etc., all from the Ontario Cannabis Store. Everything is well labeled and you know exactly what you're getting, which is nice. I'm just glad the OCS has finally gotten their prices and shipping times reasonable

The dispensaries in MASS sell flower, prerolls, concentrate, edibles, and vapes. So it’s pretty much anything you want.

How are my adhd peeps doing?? I had a big deadline at work and was hyperfixiating on it. When i was done I forgot how to do my work.

Dammit, I can’t find a single pharmacy that has Adderall in stock! This is really starting to become a problem. I sent off a note to my MH provider to see if they could get me some, or prescribe something else. I would have thought that with COVID no longer the issue it was, that supply chain issues would resolve, but I guess not!

That has been a huge problem over here too

Also, did anyone find their ADHD was worse post covid? Or meds don’t work effectively?

Yes. Post COVID, my ADHD definitely has gotten worse. It probably doesn’t help that everything is going to hell in a hand basket over here.

I haven’t been to the states so can’t compare but it feels the same here.

I’m sorry to hear that. Apparently we (USA) are contagious…
