I was able to get an adult ADD diagnosis in my 50s from my mental health counselor. Which was forwarded to my PCP. Only then I was allowed to start meds.

I have heard it's notoriously hard to get a diagnosis as an adult.

It's me in this clown makeup and I don't like it.

College was really hard for me. A big bundle of distractions at a vulnerable age in my life. I about failed out twice out of STEM degrees. I finally found a Liberal Arts degree that I could get a BA in.

Then a few years later, I had married somewhat. I went back and completed by STEM degree, somehow.

Now I'm back at it again 20+ years later, working on my Masters in IT. It takes all of my ADHD coping skills. Making lists. Exercise. Counseling. Supporting friends and family.

It's possible, but it's hard.

One of my top 3 movies!

Damn, that movie really messed me up as a kid, watching it alone.

It's designed to work perfectly in a frictionless environment with no gravity.

never make unconscious purchase decisions. Consciously set a list of what you want, and follow it.

Yes, but how do you become aware of product you consciously want?

Oxygen sensors are bullshit.

And expensive!
