So I kept seeing the memes and identifying with them, until I started asking you questions, which lead to asking how to get diagnosed. And after a visit to the neuro and a questionnaire later, I've joined the club. TBH, it lifted a weight off my shoulders.

I will begin treatment as soon as the damned insurance clears the request for medicine. I'm hopeful about the future.

I was raised being told I shouldn't need meds to function, so I thought much the same. I'm glad I didn't persist in that thinking. It's not night and day, in fact I would say it's subtle enough - like growing hair, you don't notice, but those around you occasionally might.

For some of us, it IS night and day though.

Yes, sorry - I forgot my usual disclaimer ๐Ÿ˜…. Yes, you are correct. And with proper journaling and patience one should explore their options to find what works best for them.

When I was living with roommates and was on meds, I didn't notice much change but all 4 roommates did.
