    thanks, and yeah it’s kinda like my brain is running 80mph instead of 100. ngl, i’m a little underwhelmed because i saw all these posts “first time i took adderall my inner monologue was quiet for the first time and i cried,” “i was able to do a chore without repeating it in my head 40 times,” “i finally felt present and out of my head when talking with someone,” etc

    not expecting a miracle pill and i know i have to apply myself too, but everything is very subtle and i only feel slightly less scatterbrained. my psych said i seem to have severe ADHD but she wanted to see how it affected my anxiety and insomnia first (all of which it’s minorly helped), so now i have to wait another 2 weeks to talk about raising the dose. wish i’d started this earlier but oh well

      Better late than never, does sound like it has been helping. Hopefully the anxiety becomes more manageable and hoping you get sleep sorted too. I know it is usually baby steps with some meds but it does sound promising so far.

      2 weeks shouldn’t take too long to go in so hoping things go smoothly for you and maybe get the dosage upped a bit more c: good luck!
