I have a high pressure software job and severe adhd

considerateSpruce6517 January 28th, 2021

As I’m sure you can gather from the title. I have a stimulant addiction. But I also have a medically necessary reason to have them with my adhd. I’ve tried tapering off and alternative medications but it all comes down to the same thing every time. My work performance suffers so strongly that I risk losing my job and then I would be in a much bigger problem. I just want to not need them as my crutch but I can’t stop them. When I lost my insurance and ability to get my adderall I started buying armodafinil as a cheap substitute from online Indian pharmacies. I just hate feeling like I’m not in charge of the controls anymore. It feels like I’m John Malkovich in the movie Being John Malkovich. I can see everything happening but I’m not consciously controlling it. I could reach out and stop at any time but doing so would throw my life into turmoil.

Meth was my drug of choice for a while. i got off of it got sober 3 months and my adhd was harming my grades and work performance so i got back on my adderall. Everyone told me i shouldn’t but i of course i didn’t listen. Long story short very quickly cravings for meth hit and eventually started smoking it again. I hope you ain’t thinking of getting back on it. Your not alone in this man. Theres help out there. I wish you the best stay safe.

Thank you for your message because I’m feeling exactly the same. I wish I could just hit pause on my life and start fresh , back to before taking adderall

No wonder you meet these problems. The job is really difficult

You know, I started to read a different informative article about web and application development on https://fireart.studio/blog/how-to-write-an-effective-product-requirements-document-prd/ and now I am even thinking about the creation of my own app. I still don't understand totally is a nice idea or not, but I really want to try. Although after reading posts like yours I start to hesitate because I understand it's a really time-consuming and quite a nervous job.

It's really, pretty hard and hard work. I sometimes create scripts for gaming applications and everything. Further work is beyond my power. In this case, I use a resource like TechReviewer. Here I can find a company that specializes in the area that I need at the moment. There's a lot to choose from.

Man, I believe that your job is pretty stressful. It's hard to please everyone's needs when some people don't even know what they want.

I agree that software development can be quite hard when you have to deal with it every day. It was difficult for me to come up even with one software, so I had to contact specialists. And I'm glad that my software company did a quality assurance test in the end because I've heard that some companies neglect it.

The same solution here. Thanks.

You can't have a problem with that if you have a printer. If not, go to any mall, they will definitely help you. Anyway, this is what I use, namely softorbits.net which helps to achieve a positive result. When editing videos and photos there is no more useful saving tool than this, so I use it still.

From time to time there is not enough person to whom I can speak out.
