roulette

My mind is spinning and I can't make it stop....

What to do next I must pick one to make it stop but they all have to be done now but I can't do everything at once so what do I do next, I must pick one to make it stop but they all have to be done now but I can't do everything at once so what do I do next. I must prioritize by writing it down but then I will be adding another task to the roulette wheel. What do I do next I must pick one to make it stop by they all have to be done now but I can't do everything at once so what do I do next!

Lord help me.

Wow... this sounds way too familiar. Maybe make a list and limit yourself to only having 3 or 5 things on the list at a time. Also, tell yourself you cannot add anything else to the list until all of the tasks are completed.

"The List" is never done at my house. What I try to do is ask my wife "What are the Top Three things you would like to see done this weekend?" I think she really likes this strategy because she feels that her needs matter and I'm not going to tear off and work on only the things "I" want to work on.

Adderall has sure helped me crank through the List, but with more awareness comes more anxiety over knowing All the things on the list and how rapid it grows. The bottom line is, there are so many hours in the day and I want to feel good about what I've accomplished.

Hang in there...

yeah full on...yep it's like having 1000 golf balls and no golf club to hit even one of them properly so feel like jumping in thrashing arms and legs but thats no good!

...I wanna walk 100 dogs with 10 leads I must be crazy?

why do I count things all the time and read words backwards and forwards sdrawrof dna sdrawkcab?

I forget to breathe ALOT... motionless I sit sometimes but it's an illusion I am in ADD stasis and run a delirious blank and it's just the engine in my head misfired briefly and panicked back into motion gotta keep searching put these thoughts somewhere at least most everything is not yet quite finished!

there are millions of alternatives to incredibly everything and I am impossible to be around my predictive text style attempts at conversations surely is not appreciated...just maintain eye contact thats all I gotta do right?...right?...ooops drifted again and it's not uncomfortable anymore cos that probability was seconds or light years ago but hell I'm nervous anyway

"1000 golf balls and no club to hit one" Awesome analogy! "Millions of alternatives to everything" I love that one too... I'm so sick of getting bashed over something I've done or not done and facing the judgement/wrath of "The Nornal Brainers" over the Black/White, 1/0, Right/Wrong end result, not comprehending the hundreds of things that lead to any end result :-/

yes we are a unique group of humans...designed to screw with the easily defined and tamper with the undefined and do all this indefinitely.

...it's an infinite experience unaided by curiosity but rather the generosity of possibilities and it's frustrating as hell being confined and convinced we are doing something really important really really wrong!

it's like trying to paint a white wall white while holding onto an intergalactic helicopter with your teeth...staying self assured.

man.....I am so clumsy at life but am radical at thought and easily get mistaken for something really really odd...

but thats okay

We can sure think outside the box. I was worried that the Adderall would take this gift away from me, but it really just enhanced my thought processes

never fear ....not much can disturb the add

me....I'm banned from all adhd meds gotta deal with it freelance...(meaning just me and no drugs at all)

bipolar borderline adhd addict combination what a madness stir fry
burnt my brain on the dex for 8 months and went elicit the rest of the time.

glad you are ok and managable on your pills...

I sure miss the accuracy of thinking but I think anyway and it's ok for now at least

I'd survive without the Adderall, but I would not be happy. I know exercise help and Starbucks, but it must be tough. I went 43 years not knowing what the hell was wrong, knowledge is half the battle Hang in there...

I'm taking the adderall and vyvanse and I still can't focus. I'm better than I was but still having a lot of problems lately. I had a therapist tell me that sometimes we have more stress and issues than the meds can help. All I know is the last couple years have been a challenge and I'm not coping well. Been fired twice, family illnesses, my husband has shut me out 'cause I'm not meeting expectations. Now I don't know if I should focus on my normal list, my divorce or seperation list, career list. Now, I have to pick which to do list spinning wheel then which task. It's all just so damn complicated.
