    It’d be easy to diagnose if we were a little more lax with our prescriptions.

    Here, take this Ritalin. Did it make you hyper? Yeah, you’re normal. Did it make you fold laundry the same day you washed it? ADHD.

      I take meds and I will never fold. Best I can do is actually doing the laundry.

        Why is doing laundry so hard! I’m a stay at home dad and doing laundry just feels like such a monumental task! When I finally get around to finishing it there are more loads to do. IT NEVER ENDS! lol

      In theory, but it is equally possible that you might have something else going on that might get worsened by meds (such as if you have ASD co-morbid with ADHD), or that the meds themselves are just a bad fit (maybe you need to try something else).

      It’s not quite that specific as a test unfortunately. For example, if a person is having troubles focusing because they’re sleep deprived, ritalin will help even if they don’t have clinical ADHD.
