It gets replaced with ennui.
Am American, have ADHD, used to smoke ~30 cigarettes a day. Didn’t help, believe it or not.
You need stronger stimulants than nicotine
Stonger stimulants? Surely 850mg of caffeine per day should work then
You need more persistant stimulants that that… also needs to be stronger (still)
yes, but actually no
Am an American, probably have ADHD, never been diagnoses as I already said I’m American, Been self medicating with nicotine, caffine and thc for 40 years now, it does help.
I didn’t get (informed about) my diagnosis until I was an adult and figured it out myself.
The medication is life changing, and while I still enjoy nicotine (vaped now tho) and caffine (matcha now instead of coffee), I am no longer dependent on them.
The THC hasn’t gone anywhere, but that serves additional purposes.
I guess that’s all to say, it’s not too late to get a diagnosis, and if you feel like your ADHD is negatively impacting your life, you might want to consider doing so. It’s literally the most effectively treatable mental issue there is, they figured it out.
Edit: I also find that occasional psilocybin trips (at somewhat regular intervals) are helpful to declutter my mind and improve my mood. I call it “defragmenting my disk”, because I’m old like that… also 1337
My (excessively french) mother has maintained for years that anti-smoking campaigns in france will lead to a humanitarian crisis, as cigarettes are the primary way the french get vitamins in their diet.
This has twisted my brain into a pretzel
