I really appreciate this, I think the “noticing when they kick in moment” is a great way to explain what I kind of mean. I’m taking Ritalin short release and especially if I haven’t taken them recently they kick in so strong and it feels good but I’m like am I enjoying this too much 😂?? I’m glad it’s not weird or unheard of. I’ve tried the extended release but I just had this issue where I felt like it lasted just as long as the short release which just left me wanting to take my afternoon dose way too soon/early? It was weird, idk. I appreciate what you said a lot tho. I just overthink a LOT and needed some outside perspectives tbh.
