    good for you girl. I got my official diagnosis last year at age 30! it was heartbreaking when I first found out because I feel like there was so much time lost where I could have been treated and that it could have been prevented, but it was life-changing nonetheless. the meds I’m on have helped my mood (co existing depression/anxiety) and helped me operate in my daily life much better. I feel like my life is only getting better from this point so I’m definitely grateful. knowledge is power! ❤

    Do you still suffer from any headache caused by Ritalin? I read something quite interesting about the correlation between stimulants and sugar or more precice glucose the other day. It says that due to the stimulation of the frontal brain the glucose consumption raises drasticly which causes a rapid lowering of the blood sugar level and eventually hypoglcemia. A low blood sugar level can cause headache. Therefore it‘s quite important to have a little snack from time to time to keep your blood sugar level in a normal ratio.

    reading a lot of comments about not drinking coffee with adhd meds is interesting. I am pretty new to the diagnosis and the meds and I have to say, I am pretty tired and had my morning coffee without any issue or feeling awake or anything. But I also came into this having a pretty low average heart rate, so maybe having a resting heart rate at around 45-55 on a normal day does not lead to having a super high heart rate with meds and coffee. I also do not have heart issues, went to get that checked by a specialist before even being diagnosed with ADHD. I am now super relaxed and calm, which is funny to me considering how one would normally think about stimulants. The only thing my doctor told me, that it was importance to eat before taking meds. While I am not a breakfast person, I can see why this is important, and therefore, try to remember food (well reminders everywhere, but you get what I'm saying)

    Hi. I used to be a 5 cup a day person until I was diagnosed. I now consume about a half a cup in the morning because it seems like caffeine addresses somewhat different symptoms. I noticed that my headaches were because my body burns fuel on medication and so I need to eat more regularly or I get a headache, same with liquids. But its also hard to eat, so light food like granola or rice/beans work really well because they don't make me gag and digest easily. I hope this helps.

    ADHD stimulants ruin everyone eventually. You can slow down the negative effects on your life by not taking Rx weekends. But eventually you’ll notice different parts of your life deteriorating, including sleep. I took Adderall 15 of the last 25 years, so speaking from experience. The day I didn’t need it for work I stopped taking it. If you don’t need it for work, I recommend you do the same. Good luck. 🇺🇸
