Celebrating a hopeful win!
I just wanted to pop in and say/celebrate that after 14 years of not being on ADHD medication, my primary physician is willing to start me on some again! Wish me luck! I am hoping it will help with some of my impulsivity problems that have started to become a bother for me at work, particularly when communicating.

Hello, I just wanted to give a little update. Since there were no bad effects from starting on the pediatric dose for 6 weeks, my dose has been increased to the starting dose for adults a few days ago. I don't remember the rules about naming medications on this site, so I won't out of caution.
So far I can definitely tell its effects, such as feeling more awake. The first day I took it around the same time as drinking coffee, and quickly realized that probably wasn't the best thing to do since I got a bit jittery for a bit (and coffee alone usually doesn't have that affect on me). As of writing this I am on the 3rd or 4th day and am adjusting to the other side effects such as feeling like my heart rate is faster and feeling a stronger urge to move about. But so far no major negative effects yet. I've been writing down in a notepad periodically how I've been feeling as well.Â
Until the next update! Thanks to anyone who's deciding to read this! :)
