How has it improved your symptoms?

Friend of mine has ADHD she Has Put her ADHD to good use and sHe now Enjoys Working it’s one of her Favorite things in the whole world.
She Learned to Focus she used to Have trouble focusing but through time effort and life experience she learned to focus.
Her ADHD gives her a Shit ton of physical energy to do anything. I was always jealous of her physical energy and used to Dream of Having ADHD myself so I could be so energetic and full of life as her. but unfortunately that never happened.
You have a Gift ADHD isn’t a Bad thing it’s a good thing It’s a Drive that You gotta learn to operate and direct. Best of luck to you mate

Also she doesn’t take medication for it anymore she Quit medicating her ADHD a long time ago and realized how bad trying to medicate her Problems were and they weren’t problems and if she wanted to grow up she needed to Quit taking a pill for everything she Didn’t like about herself.
She now Has 2 dogs 1 Cat and lives with her 22 year old boyfriend and a child on the way and works a good paying job.

Well, in this little story of yours you just show you have no idea what ADHD is or what is it like. You have zero understanding for it. I would say this whole story is just bullshit or your friend doesn't have very severe ADHD.
Especially when you say you want ADHD, you clearly don't understand how bad it can be. Would you like not being able to eat for days? Would you like living in a house that's a complete disaster coz you havnt been able to clean for months? Would you like to just lay in bed everyday coz you are so exhausted? Would you like experiencing severe anxiety? Would you like sleepless nights? I bet you wouldn't. So stop talking shit when you know nothing about ADHD. It's not all bad, we have our strengts. But it's not great either.
