    Came here to see if anyone had mentioned ADHD. So much misunderstanding. The name of it doesn’t help either.

    Sorry to hear about the Ritalin shortage. Going without meds for more than a week super sucks. (I’m on vyvanse though).

      Call it EDD (executive dysfunction disorder) which is a part of ADD and you’ll find more people want to know what it is and don’t just assume.

        EDD sounds similar enough to ED that people might get the wrong idea.

        With that being said, I’m not going to use the term extensively.
