How to navigate a work/life balance with ADHD?

Hey folks, so I recently got a job, which has been pretty great but very tiring. And I am finding it difficult to have that balance while also living with ADHD. I'm on meds, though might have to discuss with my psych on putting me on different meds but that's another story for another time.

I think I'm just also having trouble going from no work at all to instant full time work. Luckily my boss is letting me come in starting at 10:30am, but eventually it'll be a 9am gig and I also have delayed sleep phase cycle too. Any pointers, help, what have you would be awesome. If not, kind words are also appreciated.

  • It is hard and I don’t have a great answer, but one thing I try to do for myself is to always have something scheduled that I am looking forward to. It can be something big (like a concert) or small (weekend donuts). It really helps me to feel like I am not spending my whole life working.
