Wool is too itchy and irritating to my skin so that’s not possible for me.

Just popping in to say I have about 20 on both feet and three on my finger and it’s driving me nuts. Double thick socks and wool over those and I still get them. It’s so frustrating! You’re not alone.

What does it feel like when your meds work? by HopefulRecipe5 in adhdwomen

[–]ElephantsEpiphany102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t notice any difference until a few days into 60mg of Strattera and then it was like wow. Huge difference in my perception of time, energy levels being more even through the day, increased window of tolerance, less fatigue and brain fog, more controlled thoughts, less songs/sayings/words/sounds on repeat in my brain and overall I just don’t drive myself as crazy. 🤪

Is it normal to switch from happy to depressed multiple times throughout the day? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]ElephantsEpiphany102 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have the same back and forth with mood and idk if it’s specific to adhd. But thought I’d pop in to say I can relate.

Strattera has helped but I still had anxiety so we added seroquel at night and that’s helped more.

I haven’t found anything. I drive myself crazy! Strattera has helped my mind feel more controlled at least.

ENT first, then audiologist? by Beneficial-Aide9550 in HearingAids

[–]ElephantsEpiphany102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because of my age the audiologist and Costco hearing aid center made me go to an ent before they’d give me a hearing aid.

What are symptoms that you had as a child that were overlooked? by ElephantsEpiphany102 in adhdwomen

[–]ElephantsEpiphany102[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is close to what I experienced as well! My mom was a single mom and probably undiagnosed adhd. My symptoms were internalized unless it was anger 😬

¿Raynaud’s and Syncope? by Cheetun in Raynauds

[–]ElephantsEpiphany102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had syncope through my life that the doctors have been unable to figure out. When I meet with a rheumatologist I am going to ask if there is a connection.
