Hello, I am new here.
I am undiagnosed but have been essentially told by my therapist yeah you probably have ADHD, and suggested possibly being on the spectrum too. So I thought maybe this could be a good place to explore this issue I’ve noticed recently.
I mean stuff like personal appearance? It’s fine, nobody will say anything negative and I know that, but thinking about changing my beard style or removing it all together or I’m a little bored with some of my clothing. But thinking about doing something about it, I just know everyone will have to address it and ask the same questions or make the same comments about it and, I don’t know, like feel mentally exhausted just thinking about it.
Does anyone else experience this? It feels incredibly silly and annoying.
Interesting. I’m not sure I’ve confidence improving from medication.
The weird thing is, one of my medications may have increased my confidence, or at least relieved depression enough, to consider changing things up, but apparently not enough to just do it and not worry 😅
I still think I’m gonna go through with it, hopefully it’ll help me gain some confidence.
The reason your depression might be down is because adhd and depression medications both use a chemical called dopamine. Also fun fact, 20-30% of people with adhd also have major depression. As for you confidence, just stop think to much about it and just do what’s comfortable, it’s not that big a deal and it shouldn’t stress you out.
