my adhd meds always stop working before my period (if anyone has any experience dealing with this pls let me know) and honestly it just shows how much they do when they actually work

like i have no idea if i was actually this bad before i went on the medication. probably, i just have a shit memory. but going from 'i can concentrate on this special intrest related task perfectly' to 'i am hopping between 3 tabs oh wait thats a cool looking snake let me look it up on wikipedia oh wait a song from this artist just came on shuffle ive been meaning to buy this album physically let me open cdjapan oh wait i forgot to message my friends oh wow i really cant concentrate let me make a tumblr post about this wait what was i trying to do originally. now i am staring into space.' within the span of a day is absolutely insane.

and the sudden resurgence of insomnia. and the tummy aches. adhd fucks you up so badly. i always knew this, but going on medication and having it not work for 4 days or so every month really highlights that adhd is just the torture labyrinth.

A soft reminder to always listen to your body ! I have ADHD and take methylphenidat 10mg in the morning and in the mid day since my body gets rid of it in about 3 hours . ( i take retard ) i recently started to take 5mg at around 4 pm . It was always without any problems but today was diffrent . I had the feeling i dont realy need the third dose , but out of fear i could be quite unstable in the rebound i took it anyways . Turns out my body was warning me about this . I had heart raceing , a short panic attack and overall i felt verry overdosed . ( awake etc . Wich is usually not the case for me at all . As i tend to get calm and my inside rush starts to vanish on MPH .) These symptoms faded in the first hour luckly . But im still a bit on edge . Always listen to your body about these things , even if the medicine helps you usually , there are warn signals that your body dose not want it . Today was also a verry hot day .. wich could have indicated to this outcome . ( starting the pill slinda 4mg again too today ) . I will take it as usual tomorrow 10mg at 11:30 and 10 mg 3 hours later . And thats it . I think my body is alright with this only . And i will comsult my doctor about this . Dw . Have a good day ! And stay safe .

Reminder for adhd brains on stimulant meds (for extended release meds)

EAT AS MUCH AS YOU CAN BEFORE YOU TAKE YOUR MEDS

This is important bc it can prevent both a dopamine crash and a situation i experienced which idk the name of where the meds kick in too hard bc your metabolism is too fast and so it doesn't release slowly as it should.

I'm now on methylfenidate or medikinet, but my psychiatrist is still not entirely convinced that I have adhd 🙃🙃🙃

So like you give me meds for adhd but still don't diagnose me although I was diagnosed when I was 13?

Ok 👍🏻

Me on meds: Yass I‘m that bitch!! Look how functional I am!! Look what I can do!! And I don’t even need FOOD or SLEEP !!

Me without meds: *crawling out from my room at 11am after sleeping 9 hours* I need… foooood!! And … sleeeeep! Ooh and this feels stimulating nice

Erster Tag auf Medikinet adult 1x 10mg am Morgen genommen: es ist alles ein bisschen schwummerig und ich bin leicht reizbar. Dafür sind meine Gedanken klarer und langsamer, ich kann sie besser sortieren und denke mehr über das nach was ich sagen möchte

love my meds being a restricted substance and needing a new precription every month while also having a forgetful psychrist who forgets to book appointments and send precriptions 🙃
