Surprising ADHD research finds greater life demands linked to reduced symptoms
www.psypost.org
Recent research found that ADHD often fluctuates, with most individuals experiencing alternating periods of remission and recurrence influenced by environmental demands, rather than following a static course of persistence or permanent remission. Recovery is rare, occurring in only 9.1%.

Curious to hear what others think, as this definitely aligns with my own experiences.

    Makes total sense to me. On a busy day, I get everything done with time to spare, on a slow day, I somehow don’t have time to do anything.

      Same here! I’ve repeatedly tried to explain this to my manager, and their response is that I should learn to delegate more. I feel so lucky to have a job that demands so little of me, but it sucks because I end up underperforming and unhappy. Since it’s clear at this point that my manager won’t give me more work, I guess I need to find other ways to make myself feel busy.
