i have a lot going on in terms of my mental health, but one thing that is really destroying my life right now seems to be executive dysfunction. i’m well into middle age now and never got assessed, but i’d like to be evaluated and treated if possible. i really don’t know where to start. i don’t have insurance as i’m unemployed (u.s.). what sort of professional should i see who can help me? any thoughts on what to expect along the way? any advice would be most appreciated!


In parts of Europe, Modafinil has a decent ratio of “easy to get” / “helpful with executive dysfunction”. It’s schedule IV in the USA; not sure if a GP can and will prescribe it, especially when intended for off-label use. Safety is also not great compared to real ADHD meds, but it helps pretty well.
