I'm not currently medicated for adhd, but I've been curious to ask. Has anyone had success with medication dealing with the social battery aspect? It's one of my worst symptoms, and really impacts work.

Adderall helps me with that quite a bit. Not to the point where I can keep it up all day, but I can at least not have a mental breakdown after talking to three people at work

People at work tell me my phone voice is so nice and soothing, but they don't know it's shaving hours off my life each time like a cigarette.

Please do not make extension cords with two male ends like that. They are often called “suicide cords” for a reason.

Then again, maybe that’s part of the joke!

I think in this comic one end is the standard male end and the other is a HID

ADHID

How does ADHD factor into this, medically or scientifically speaking? Does ADHD inherently make call center type work more difficult?
