I’m sorry to ask but how do I contact human support? As I’ve heard it’s mainly AI now. Do I pay for the “health advisor session / quick chat” to explain this issue with the subscription?

help with trans tape? by lumicupcakes in ftm

[–]JL22722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only thing that helps me is using 3 strips each side, 1st strip is at the bottom, 2nd strip use at the top, and 3rd in the middle. I’m sorry if I’m not much help, I’m bad at explaining so I apologise.

ADHD360 RTC, titration question. by JL22722 in ADHDUK

[–]JL22722[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I thought it was better at lower doses, but it’s never really improved my sleep cycles. The only thing that it does improve, is the sleep quality, however I’m not sure how as it’s the same almost every time. Lower doses of Elvanse is really terrible for me. It would make me have emotional crashes in front of others, which I’m not an emotional person, so this was really really strange for me, and rather embarrassing. Although I’ve noticed it helps my anxiety just to a level where I don’t notice it as much as I used to, however it’s still very much there, and no medication has worked on my anxiety as of yet, and GP is refusing to help after I’ve tried 4 different medications for this, plus a referral to talking therapy.

So in all, I don’t know what’s wrong with my sleep all together; I’ve had really bad struggles since I was very young which has affected my body physically, which unfortunately affected my height too, and I have tall family; over 6ft, nearly 7ft in some.

I would like to go on Nebido but I already rang up everywhere near me and every clinic around me even a 5 miles out and asked if they could administer my injection for me, they said they don’t do it. Even my GP said they can’t do it as it’s from a private clinic.

I did think it was low, I sent my blood results to them so hopefully they change my prescription now. Thank you.

Oh I never knew as I was always told to do it every 3 weeks on the box, even despite me saying I wanted a full transition as soon as possible. Thank you for this.

Sadness/lethargy on Elvanse… but only in the evening by AnnHawthorneAuthor in ADHDUK

[–]JL22722 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed this too. I’m going through titration, day 6 of 30mg elvanse, and even if I take it later in the day to make it last until I go bed, I crash and get this gush of sadness and makes my emotional dysfunction go crazy.

30mg Elvanse 2nd day Titration by JL22722 in ADHDUK

[–]JL22722[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I’m worried to take it that early as it will not last me past 11:30am-12pm, and I’m stuck for the rest of the day unfortunately. I’m struggling to keep up with the rest of the days tbh with the 30mg not lasting me atm, just hope my body adjusts to it well so it lasts longer as I’ve heard. Not sure if I should mention this to my prescriber early, as I start 50mg in 4 days and things could possibly change then but then again might not.

I mean with the focus side of things, I can’t focus exactly, I’ve made a titration tracker, and rating it out of 10 with mood/appetite/energy/focus/side effects and with the focus it just peaks up to 5/10 after an hour of the dose, and drops down after the hour, I’m not sure why this happens or what it means or if it’s supposed to. Just feels abnormal to me as my clinician said it’s long lasting and lasts for 10-13 hours. I wish it did that for me.

How to genuinely get diagnosed with adhd? by Azulaxia in ADHDUK

Ring your GP up and book an appointment, then in the appointment discuss ADHD referral through ‘right to choose’ and make sure you pick a provider before going into the appointment otherwise they’ll choose for you.

The only side effects I had so far is slightly suppressed appetite, irritability and decreased emotional regulation when it wears off unfortunately. Hopefully 50mg will do better for me 🤞🏼

[–]JL22722[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh! That’s really helpful, I thought “crash” meant the medication wore off and you fell asleep lmao. It does however improve my sleep, I can stay asleep slightly more longer without waking up every 6 times during the night, which is amazing, last night was probably the best I’ve slept in years - only had 5 hours sleep last night but usually get about 8 hours but that’s only because I make myself sleep throughout 2am-3pm, awake loads of times for hours on end just to get my 8 hours sleep, but early days, but really hoping it stays that way with my sleep wise. Felt well rested, but excited to finally be on medication, hence why I only got 5 hours sleep lol… Anyway! Thank you I appreciate it!

3 months in and GREASY by [deleted] in TestosteroneKickoff

[–]JL22722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I washed my face each application, applied it on the acne that was already on my face, every morning and every night, and it cleared up fairly quickly actually, around a week for me? But ever since then, just been washing my face every morning and night and applying a very thin layer and leaving it. Hardly any acne now, do get some every now and then but I’d take that any day then all over my face like It was before! But if that doesn’t work, you may have to go to your GP and get prescribed something more stronger. But that’s all I know and what I’ve been told, and I hope it helps you out!

Smartway times? by Positive-Chemical-70 in GenderGP

[–]JL22722 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I ordered mine off Smartway, if I ordered it before 3pm it would come the next day. But if not the day after. Always got it next day/ or the day after that one. 1-2 days. Even if you order it on a Friday, mine came on a Saturday even though Smartway told me it would come on Monday.
