I have severe ADHD along with Bipolar 1, GAD, and OCD. I was able to get a job despite being on no medication.

I'm not saying it's easy to get a job, but I'm saying that it's possible. So, don't worry about not being able to get a job. You'll be able to do it.

As far as memory goes... I have better visual memory than verbal memory. My verbal memory is 82... and well... a score of 70 is considered "mental retardation" and a score of 100 is "average". I'm closer to mental retardation than I am to "average". So, you can imagine how horrible my verbal memory is! My visual memory is 102 though. I just remember things visually because my visual memory is much better.

I've learned to compensate for the ADHD over the years, although I'm now looking into medications to make my life easier. I just haven't been able to take any because of my bipolar disorder (cos I'm not fully stable yet).

Best of luck
Thanks for this!
