I went to a neuropsycologist that specializes in diagnosing ADHD. I had a series of cognitive tests that were performed on me for about 4 hours, I was pretty tired at the end to be honest.
I live in USA.
Insurance covered the majority of the cost, I just had to pay a fraction of the normal cost. Sorry, but I don’t know how much it would have cost me if I had to pay everything myself.
let me know if you have any other questions 🙂
interesting… found a page that explains how to do this, will have to play around with it at some point
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
people don’t know that though, they think its safer.
I agree with everything you’re saying. Maybe since its so in-our-faces now, things will maybe change? time will tell.
yeah, but that’s the societal trap. who cares what other people think if you know you’re doing the right thing by taking care of people who take care of you?
yes, they are. so many kids of family and friends just bust out dancing randomly, its absolutely hilarious tbh
lol I see what you are saying, but I think you’re being critical of the artistic liberties taken when drawing this
the blue donkey is the DNC, a caricature of how the democrats are represented. its similar to how the republican party is depicted as an elephants.
I don’t see anything racist about this, wouldn’t think too deeply about how its drawn
hey, this is great!! what’s your credit card number
do I have to go to a specific place and see a specific specialist?
I am not sure where you are located, but I was able to get tested in NYC through my job. I would suggest for you to search online for ADHD testing and see what comes up, first good step.
Also I’m kinda scared of most medications and don’t really want anything too intense.
I informed my doctor I do not like the idea of taking medication, but if it would help me function better, I just have to face the music and try it out. I’ll follow up later and let you know how that goes.
If I do have ADHD it’s not like I can’t function right now so I’m unsure if I should even get tested. I just wish that I’d spend more time and effort on my hobbies.
I had the same feeling and was told I am high functioning with a mild case of ADHD. I’ll see what next steps I want to take in regards to medication once I get access to the full report.
These days I go hard on one of them for a good couple days or weeks and then not touch them again for months or longer.
are you me??? lol
idk, I think words eventually take new meaning. no need to bring propaganda into this imo
let me know when you figure it out, thanks
hmm, looking up the word on Wikipedia shows how the word Luddite now means what the comic is depicting:
Nowadays, the term “Luddite” often is used to describe someone who is opposed or resistant to new technologies.
In 1956, during a British Parliamentary debate, a Labour spokesman said that “organised workers were by no means wedded to a ‘Luddite Philosophy’.” By 2006, the term neo-Luddism had emerged to describe opposition to many forms of technology. According to a manifesto drawn up by the Second Luddite Congress (April 1996; Barnesville, Ohio), neo-Luddism is “a leaderless movement of passive resistance to consumerism and the increasingly bizarre and frightening technologies of the Computer Age”.
I feel like I do this but definitely need to take a step back and see if I can reel my passion in a bit… 😮💨
thanks for the advice, have a great weekend!
how do we combat ignorance in our personal lives? I am looking for suggestions
if this were to actually happen, I’m positive some people still wouldn’t get it
kissed the ring, now has to do his bidding
