Medication
Hello everyone I hope you are all well? Sorry if this is a personal question. But is anyone on ADHD medication and if you are how did you find them when you first started taking them, did you experience any side effects

@Michael Wilson which ones worked for you and what doses?

I take methylphenidate 2,5mg alternate daily. It lower than the therapeutic dose but I get side effects if I take anymore than that. side effects are difficulty sleeping, irritability, and worsening of racing / obsessing thoughts (I have those at baseline because I have an anxious temperament) this is not medical advice please speak to your doctor. I am now trying guanfancine. I have been on it for about 1 week. I have the expected side effects (sleepiness drowsiness) but those will pass once I have adapted. it is also called intuniv, non stimulating adhd meds.
Win - I quit nicotine!
I quit vaping recently, today is day 9 of me quitting. Was just wondering if anyone with ADHD has experience with nicotine use / quitting nicotine.

All of the above except for a timer 😂 I haven't tried timers have you? Do you feel bad if you don't complete the task in time?

Been Away For A While, Now I'm Back!
Hey guys I've been out of action for the last month main because a lot of things have been happening to me recently I lost my job and so under the equality act of 2010 and taking my employer to court so I've been talking to lawyers I had my PIP interview just waiting to see what the results of that is to help me with my ADHD in certain areas I hated asking but you need to help sometimes with my condition being officially diagnosed and the medication etc. I've gone back onto my antidepressants again and they seem to be working alongside the medication so that's a result although they calm down at the end of the 12 hours with the ADHD medication can be a little bit tough as most of you know. I'm still trying to learn about my ADHD and how it affects me and my staging life it is quite a major adjustment I need to do but it's quite strange that most employers don't acknowledge it or if they do they mention how many others have got it but when you look into it you find that none of them are officially diagnosed they're just social media diagnosed which I'm totally opposed to. I mean, it's just like saying you have cancer and then when somebody asks you when was you diagnosed you just say ''oh I just noticed it symptoms on social media so I know that I've got it'' whereas until you've officially been diagnosed I don't think you can say you have anything but that's just my opinion.

@Michael Wilson wow. That's impressive. I live in South Africa, our government is not great and we don't have things like this
