It’s a tricky one really. I think anyone (irrespective of ADHD) would feel like that after a 9 hour day. But I do know what you mean because I have to work longer hours than my colleagues to get things done and it just kills any other aspects of life. I certainly can’t deal with last minute stresses like you describe even if I am not tired. I have to do things at my own pace even if it takes longer. If I don’t, then I make mistakes and that’s worse. Guess we’re all in a similar boat.
It might be a good idea to declare your ADHD if you think it will protect you. It depends on the situation and the employer. If they will use that to ‘get at you’ later on then don’t – but if it will protect you then do. I guess it just depends on how reasonable these people are.
Whatever you decide, best of luck and I hope it turns out well.
