Re: Anyone not on medication?

jennifermac – you’re right. We need to take ownership and responsibility for our ADHD.

If we have been diagnosed there’s no reason why we cannot move forward.

On saying that, one of our biggest issues is with motivation. As Barklay said ‘it’s a deficit of motivation’. So we see things differently if we see them at all.

Mark – I agree with you. If your coping mechanisms work then there’s no need for medication. I take meds now because my coping mechanisms aren’t as effective anymore. On saying that, I prefer myself off meds – I mean personality wise – but that’s only possible under certain circumstances or when it doesn’t matter.
