I am 54 and ended up at the ER last week due to unmedicated ADHD. I thought I could handle projects without the pills..oh boy was I wrong...slowly over a few years i went to mush. My mood is great though as i have no front-cortex functioning anymore to worry about things. I'm a god damned zombie. :)
