I got officially diagnosed with ADHD inattentive type. Not sure on meds yet. With anyone with this (ADHD/OCD/Maladaptive Daydrraming) what coping strategies have you used to get through everyday. Now that I can put a diagnoses as to why learning anything has been such a struggle, I want to know what it feels like to be successful. But I struggle so much with reading comprehension and not feeling exhausted. When I googled on Reddit "adhd reading comprehension" most people suggested audio books. What has been your best strategy for everything in life?

I have also been diagnosed with ADHD and I have a really hard time understanding and remembering what I read.

My main stragedy is to ask myself what I read and then to explain it to myself. Usually in the process I realize I can't explain something and then I get re interested in reading about it.
