30, AMAB Last night I went to sleep at a normal time, I was feeling pretty lethargic from not getting enough sleep the previous night. I woke up this morning with what felt like muscle pain on my side and near my armpit, I just assumed I must have slept in a bad position, I used a massage gun in the

Having ADHD fucking sucks. It’s not quirky, fun, or something that needs to become an entire personality. I’ve seen so many TikTok accounts that are all just “here’s 5 reasons you have ADHD” and then they base everything they discuss as mundane nonsense that doesn’t even pertain to ADHD. “You migh

Let me tell you a story. I’m a dad with ADHD, my oldest son has ADHD inattentive type, the middle son has ADHD hyperactive type, the baby is a baby, but we already have a sense she’s got something going on already. In the mornings, I serve up morning meds for everyone. A vyvanse for dad, fluoxetine

My son is profoundly autistic and very minimally speaking with a host of comorbidities, including ADHD combined type. We tried several stimulant formulations. He couldn't sleep. He became aggressive.

Turns out with the right drugs (guanfacine + wellbu

I haven’t been able to sit down and read literally just a CHAPTER of a book in like 6 years. I crave just…. Sitting down and focusing on one task. Reading a book. Doing a puzzle. Cleaning my room. For reference I am diagnosed with adhd-c and on Sertraline and Guanfacine. I been on both for like?

I can’t believe nobody has ever recommended this drug to me before. I always struggled with stimulants as there would be days where I would have breakdowns or hyper focus on the wrong thing, couldn’t sleep.. etc. I’ve been taking guanfacine and bupropion for about a month and I REALLY NOTICE a diffe

Maybe it’s just me but I’ve gone through a gauntlet of medications (Adderall, Focalin XR, Ritalin, Metadate, Vyvanse, Dexedrine, Concerta, Wellbutrin, Strattera, Guanfacine) and each time I’ve ended up disappointed in them. At best, they give me a bit of energy/wakefulness and make it slightly easie

This is really long. I’m tired and frustrated, sorry. So I just got off my 11p-7a in the emergency department. We have this one doc, LC, who I’m pretty sure is out to get me. Does this sound dramatic? Yes. Do I actually think it’s true? I’ve been trying to convince myself I’m crazy, but I actually
