Getting a real diagnosis is a big obstacle. Waiting lists are ridiculous, and the medical landscape is confusing.

In recent years, I've become increasingly convinced that I've got ADHD. Before, I used to think I've got Asperger's or something. Before that, motivational problems (that was an actual diagnosis when I was a teen). By now, I'm ready to give chemicals a try, but I can't get them without the diagnosis. (Well, except caffeine, but I'm actually trying to reduce that.)

Also, I'm trying to channel that hyperfocus. It rarely works, but sometimes it does.
