I always forget about my naval. When I was younger I would never wash behind my ears.

One option would be to buy Vyvanse on the darknet and stick to a small dose of 30mg/day for at least 8 weeks before you change anything. You don't need a doctor to tell you that and it will improve your life immensely with very few minor side effects. Also likely cheaper than whatever you're currently self-medicating with and the other hidden costs of living with undiagnosed ADHD.

But it's probably illegal, so you know, don't do it.

I got a whole bottle of Vyvanse once and holy shit it was a great couple months, never felt so productive in my life.

Hm... is that thing expensive on black market? Cuz I can't spend too much currently ๐Ÿ˜”.

I take Escetalopramme currently, 20mg, that's for my depression and bursts of rage... I didn't used to have a short fuse, but raising a kid, especially a stubborn one, is not easy, so I started having them when he didn't listen. Things are good now, haven't had them in a while and I feel much better, more relaxed and just have more nerves for stupid things that surround me every day... I don't take them as seriously, just go "meeeh, whatever". So it's not bad, but focus is a problem sometimes. Though I do have better focus now, my guess is, thanks to the drug, I would like to improve on that.

If you're already on medication, especially for psychological issues, disregard my entire comment.
You definitely do need a doctor to advise you on (possibly very dangerous) interactions between meds.

Yeah, that is true...

I'll see if I can do it online somehow, pay someone to diagnose me, I really can't afford to go abroad now ๐Ÿ˜”.

Not a doctor obviously, but I've been taking escitalopram and vyvanse together as prescribed by my doc. Which should be where it is coming from, honestly, considering it's basically diet speed lol
