My husband and I have been married for 2 years and have been together for 4. We are considering having kids. I'm going to talk more with a doctor tomorrow, but I'm concerned about my mental state. I was recently diagnosed with ADHD, and my doctor thinks I was misdiagnosed in my teenaged years and not handling this ADHD has spawned depression, anxiety, and sensory disorders. If I want to have a baby, I know I need to find some sort of job that pays roughly $600-700 a month, but I feel like I'm having so much trouble getting my ducks in a row. I haven't had a job in a long time because I took a break from school, but I graduated and am focusing on writing, but writing on top of doing simple chores feels like I'm trying to accomplish a week's worth of work in a day. Every task feels like so much effort and it boggles my mind that some people can handle every day things, including having a job, with kids, and going to school. I don't know how I could handle simple chores, a job, and a baby. I feel like working more with my doctor will help me, but I'm also afraid that I can't take any ADHD medication while I'm pregnant, and all of my work to get on track will be wasted. Having a baby is something that we really, really want, but I also want to be a fit mother for my child. I trust the community on here, so are there any mothers out there that struggle with mental disorders? Anyone that has ADHD in particular (since my ADHD seems different from my husband's, who manages pretty well) and has some good advice on how to manage this, because I feel awful all the time?
