I've also just been diagnosed at age 30 (constantly been labeled "lazy" / "dreaming" when I was younger - you believe it after a while - ADHD diagnosis still seems to be something novel here in Austria as well).

What you write really gives me hope, for now my neurologist put me on Wellbutrin mainly to treat my depression but he said he really wants me to try Ritalin soon.

I'm one of those people who rather meditates and works out regularly than to take any drugs - I don't like to mess with my brain - but I'm so fed up with my ADHD and the Wellbutrin alone already helps not only with overcoming my fail(ed-potential) derived neurosis but also a little with focus.

Do you feel as if Ritalin might help with getting to where the ADHD recovery group managed to get themselves even when not on Ritalin? "Plasticity of the brain" yadda yadda...
