Here's how you pay attention at your job.

Here's a little bit of that stimulant to help you out.

You know, I do all that stuff.

But...

I also discover that I have to do another kind of thing, which is I need to fix or we need to repair all of the psychological hurt of growing up with ADHD up until this point.

All the things that you knew you were capable of that you got passed over for this girl that you really liked or this guy that you really liked that y'all went out on a date, but you couldn't pay attention to a fucking conversation.

So they ended up dumping you for someone else.

You know, all these people that texted you and you like saw the text, but you wanted to say something really important.

They sent you a really important text, but you didn't have time for a really important text right now.

So you said to yourself, I'm going to do it later.

And then what ends up happening is you forgot.

And so someone sent you a really important text.

And a month later, you realize, oh, shit, I got that text.

And I never responded to them.

And then it feels really stupid to respond to it a month later.

So then you don't know what to do.

And so then you're just kind of like, whatever.

The consequences.

of growing up with ADHD is different from treating the ADHD itself.

So, to give you all an example, there's a great medication called an ACE inhibitor, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor.
