Thanks for sharing this with me. Do you have any serious side effects or anything? I ask cuz the med works for few hours and then I go through a pretty rough time, my dr says because the dose is too low, once it wears out the body is producing too much adrenaline to try to upkeep the “good-focused feeling”, but a lot of adrenaline is exhausting, anyways, I’m new to adhd meds and would like to be on smallest dose of any med possible and I’ve always metabolized insanely fast (at dentist they would always be shocked how much freezing I would need and continue to need it every 10-15 mins). And since most people are on low-medium doses, not many doc/psychs prescribe super high doses. Found one who has experience in this area, so I’m exploring this now, we are increasing slowly over 1 week at a time, but honestly I’m exhausted and little bit scared. And I found this earlier.... https://addadult.com/high-dose-stimulant-treatment-for-adult-adhd/
Anyways, anyone reading this and going through a hard time, me too, I hear you, I’ve lived with this for over 30 years and just got diagnosed. Oh, I actually was different? What’s evident is that there isn’t a single human being out there who can and will understand any of us fully, not our partners, parents, siblings, best friends, pets and solely because every single one of our brains is wired differently and thus making our experience super unique and never fully understood by anyone.
Perhaps our existence is to roam through life and discover the mechanics and mechanisms of our bodies and how the soul fits within. Ultimately though, inside this body (and brain) is a soul, that will leave this shell behind and thus we have always been whole.
Ah shoot, here I do again. Ok well I’m just gonna post before I over think and delete, if your reading this, I see you, I hear you, keep fighting and looking for answers and support in many directions, because like my brain and metabolism, YOU are also unique and will require a very unique treatment plan.
Thanks for reading this, say hi if you like and I really appreciate everyone in this community as it’s helped me progress my diagnoses as an adult who is struggling and really really really wanting to be better.
