This is where I'm at rn but I'm worried about trying to get medication to treat it.
Since I was a kid I've always had issues with motivation and organization. My default state is moderate messiness and disorganization, weed just makes me not feel as bad about it and stop stressing myself out.
I hear you on the meds. I'm not sure I'm to enthused about those but people keep saying they help so I don't know. I also know I need to change my behavioral habits I've developed over the years but it's not easy. Just going to go with whatever the psychiatrist says and gk from there. I'm just so tired of my own crap at this point. And yeah, weed made it easier to just be. And I don't think you have to take medication if you don't want too. Don't think they will force it on you.
It's less worried about being forced and more worried about them thinking I'm drug seeking, it's happened to friends of mine who have asked about it.
Hate that this has to be a worry. Makes it harder for people that actually need help to get help. If I was drug seeking there are easier options than going for a freaking adhd assessment. Oh well, try not to stress over it, and I know it's hard not too but you can always go to another Dr. Just makes it a pain in the ass. Good luck of you do decide to go through with it.
