    It’s definitely something that takes trial and error, and I know for some people the medication doesn’t work very well at all unfortunately. I know you didn’t ask an internet stranger for their armchair psychiatry but one thing I can recommend is that you don’t let medication be your only treatment! Routines and exercise have both been extremely effective for me personally at mitigating the effects of ADHD. I know those are both almost impossible to get into precisely BECAUSE of ADHD, but if you can, try and use the medicine as a springboard to help you! I’d recommend talking to a professional about various non-pharmaceutical things you can do to supplement your medication. Good luck and try not to let anything kill your love for games!

    That’s very interesting! My experience with treatment has mostly been that all the games I thought sounded really cool but weren’t very fun turned out to actually be extremely fun, I was just utterly incapable of immersing myself in anything before treatment. Granted my issue was severe ADHD and I have no idea what yours is.



  • These are games where a major portion of the gameplay involves learning about the game. In Heaven’s Vault and Chants of Sennaar this manifests as learning languages. In Return of the Obra Dinn this is figuring out what happened on the ship. In Tunic and The Outer Wilds this is based around knowledge checks, or mechanics that are present from the start of the game but you only learn how to exploit them much later.
