Arjun Joshi is a 28-year-old software...
Arjun Joshi is a 28-year-old software engineer who has always been bright but struggled with organization. In college, he managed with all-nighters, but at his demanding job, he's drowning. He misses deadlines, forgets meetings, and his desk is chaos. His manager suggested an evaluation. His psychiatrist, Dr. Mehta, diagnosed Combined-Type ADHD. Arjun felt both relief and shame, relief that there was a name for his struggles, shame that he needed 'help' for something others seemed to do easily. Dr. Mehta recommended a trial of a stimulant medication alongside cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for ADHD. Starting medication was nerve-wracking; Arjun worried about dependency. The first week was transformative, the 'static' in his mind quieted, allowing him to prioritize tasks and follow through. He combined this with CBT strategies for time management. Six months later, Arjun is thriving at work and has started a side project. Emotionally, he moved from feeling like a 'fraud' to understanding his brain's wiring. He now sees treatment not as a crutch but as glasses for his focus, allowing his true capabilities to shine.
