ADHDer in Finance NYC meetup

Hey guys, I’m seeing quite some threads about ADHD in finance. And I’m proposing a meetup this Sunday, 17th Dec in NYC, for a coffee to talk about how we can better coping with it.

There’re quite a bit of things working against us for what is required in finance, attention to detail, time blindness, rejection sensitivity dysphoria and the list goes on.

Would love to hear how y’all manage it and if you are taking medication what are you taking etc.

Here’s a QR code of my what’s app, shoot me a message, once we have enough people I’ll pull a group and we can decide where and when to meet on Sunday base on preference.

Tomato monkeys are strange mutations which have recently been spotted in the vast forests of Southeast Asia. It is believed the creatures spawned from a troop of local monkeys fed upon wild tomatoes which had grown in a contaminated area. They have all the usual mating, grooming, and social habits of normal monkeys, but tend to "spoil" as they get older.
 

I’m posting a few things I find helpful:

Inflow: App for cognitive behavioral coaching
ADHD 2.0: Book by Dr. Hallowell, a better understanding to yourself
Rivia Mind: if you are yet diagnosed or self- diagnosed, this tele-health platform can help you with diagnosis and medication prescription

Dr. Russ Barkley also has tons of stuff on his website and lots of nice vids I personally find helpful

Dr. K (healthygamer.gg) also has a ADHD guide, don’t know if it’s good or not though
