I strongly encourage you to tell no one except your doctor or those closest to you about your adhd. You will be accused of being lazy, using it for an excuse (even if you haven't made any sort of excuse about anything) and that "people just don't want to have to be parents", "you didn't get your *** beat enough as a kid", "it's just a fake disorder to sell pills and turn kids into zombie drug addicts", "you just want an excuse so you don't have to try", "everyone has those symptoms", "its just like doing meth".....

Yadda yadda yadda....everyone is a self-proclaimed adhd expert, parenting expert, child behavior expert, etc....and they all have an opinion, and it is "politically correct" to say adhd is BS.

I advise you to NOT share this diagnosis with many people, so you don't have to listen to this annoying crap, get blamed for things you didn't do, get accused of being a "druggie"....and have people begging you for or trying to steal your pills (these are usually the same people who call you a druggie).

If you have to share it with your employer for some reason, play it off like it is no big deal. Do not tell the other workers. If they find out, that means your boss doesn't know to shut up about your private business, and needs called out on it.

I would almost go so far as to say skip your meds for four or five days so it isn't in your pee for a pre employment physical, but why should you have to? That's not fair. That being said, though, I still might try that. Only problem is, if it DOES show up in your pee and you didn't mention it, there will be drama. Can you get out of it? Sure. You have a script. You're doing nothing wrong. Would it call attention to it? You bet!

Good luck, I'm sorry you are going through this.
