I accidentally doubled up on my ADHD medicine and I feel like I'm going to pass out. That's how I know I actually have ADHD. Too much stimulant medication makes me feel super sleepy. Meanwhile a mate of mine got one from his partner and took it at a festival and was absolutely shitfaced the whole day. Brains are weird.
hmmm, speed and md used to put me to sleep.
Couldn't hurt to get checked out. It changed my life completely.
It sounds like it could hurt a few grand. It's on my list to check, but my hernia is taking priority at the moment.
Cost me $250. Plus the GP appointment for the referral. But it might have gotten more expensive since 2021
I've been meaning to look into it too. I did an executive functioning assessment with an OT and got "moderately/markedly atypical" in most of the areas. No wonder coffee doesn't do much for me (even though it tastes nice)
Dexys?
Yup. I take 2 every 4-5 hours. Tried the long release one, but it didn't work for me. It seemed to all release in the one go.
There's 2 kinds?
Not OP, but chiming in re: the slow release....I'm on 70mg Vyvanse which seems to keep me going throughout the day. I asked the doc about Dexys and he said I shouldn't need them for a top up
First of all, good to hear from ya! Second, North won a game, yay. Third, if someone, hypothetically offered Vyvanse to me would that have the same effect as dex? Like as in the motivation mode? 😉
For a normal person, you'd be pretty amped up. For ADHD you'd be really chilled out.
Interesting.
Yeah there's one where you only have to take 1 tablet a day called Vyvanse. It's a pain in the ass to organise your life in 5 hour blocks.
I've always got a small tin of tablets on me at work so I can duck out to the bathroom and take 2 even if I'm in a meeting.
