I've had ADHD since I was 6 and been on multiple medicines over the years to try and treat the problem. One advice about medicine though, make sure you ask a lot of questions and follow up with any suggested testing that needs to be done. Some medicines may damage your liver and you need to have it tested every so often to make sure that no damage is being done. I was on one of those medications and they didn't test me ever. I was lucky and no problems occurred, but it is a good idea not to take the chance. As far as being an adult with a job, I find that I am able to focus when I need to. It takes some conscious concentration but I get through the days alright. You just need to realize you're day-dreaming an dget back to what you need to be doing. Good luck with it.
