Great to know. Thank you! I signed up for a routine app, which helped me before. I've hired coaches for business/career and your post made me think I could benefit from working with someone who helps with executive function in general as opposed to focusing on career/business....Hmmm. That is something for me to think about!

OP

You do not need to be tested - you can be diagnosed by seeing a paychoatrist.

I take atomoxetine. It's helpful but I still need some kind of coaching/therapy and routines for structure.

What helped you?

I was on Wellbutrin which had an off-label benefit of helping with focus. It really helped!

My struggles are around motivation and focus. I have come a long way with exercise, diet, and meditation yet think I need to get tested or back on meds.

Questions:

How/where can I get tested that won't cost $1,000?

What had worked well for you with handling your ADHD?
