    Vyvanse ended up making the dog way bigger on some days, I’m on atomoxetine and that’s been way more manageable.

    In case anyone has found themselves to be sensitive to stimulant medication, don’t be afraid to ask about trying non-stimulants 🙂

    I wish tbh, been diagnosed for 3 years and still haven’t found meds that work. I suppose that’s inevitably part of it, but it sucks to just not be able to do things because my brain doesn’t want to give me good chemicals.

    Meds that I tried didn’t help me. Fuck me I guess 🙃

    To be fair I have not tried any new meds in many years, so I’m sure there’s new ones I haven’t tried, but I couldn’t afford the appointments or medications anyway…

    I’m at my third type of medication and still no difference. At least I’m not absolutely drained as on first one but yet to see a positive impact. Yes, I’m diagnosed.

    Adhd meds turn you into a Furry confirmed (although, what you you already were one beforehand? Does it cancel out?)

      If my kid ever feels like this, I am going to be angry, and have a LOT of questions. Mostly in a very pissed off tone.

      …I don’t have kids, and the last time someone COULD HAVE potentially gotten pregnant from me and kept it secret would have been 2006. But I’m 99.9% sure I don’t have kids.

      So if I found out I have a kid, I would be confuuuuuuused.
