So hi all you cool fediverse thingies,

(Edit: I just realized I posted this on ADHD memes. Can't stop being a clown)

After an odyssey I've been finally diagnosed at 18 of age with "a textbook example of ADHD" (-my psychiatrist) and high QI. Lmao I wish.

They gave me 30gm of lisdexanfetamin (Elvanse) and I just took a pill a few hours ago after getting up.

The thing is that I'm not feeling a single thing different in any way and I don't even what should I be expecting. I might be scared of having expend more money and time because of the dosage not being right…

How were your first moments/days/weeks with medication? (I you don't mind sharing).

I don't want to fail uni. :c

Not on the same meds. But Vivance and to a a degree Ritalin give me the energy to do things.

Instead of walking past the thing and taking on yeah I'll do that later. I can just do it.

And I'm able to complete one task before starting another one. I find myself turning to a task and think nope, finish this one first.

Or Ive noticed I can even have for Sight to think do I really have time/need to do whatever my brain wants to do right now. No. Ive got to leave in 5mins.

Wow, that souns incredibly alien for me. You are able to restrain yourself instead of arriving late? Sounds like superpowers to me.

I'm happy to know it works for you. It also serves as a reminder that things can indeed get better with help.

Thanks for the reply. :)
