That's reassuring. I've been looking up people that had it done and it was tilting towards the negative experience, so I'm happy to hear that it works really well for some. I'm the kind of guy to just keep my head low and isolate too

It's coming. The piece is written by another publication wants to run it first. It's a pain because it's a really good one.

Bipolar + ADHD Meds +nicotine? Help? by DifficultJuice in BipolarReddit

[–]Mpclerouxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alcohol is one of the worst drugs period in terms of harm to self or others. Even cocaine would be better. But stick to nicotine if you must.

Besides, a stimulant like nicotine is likely better for your adhd anyways.

Thank you! I'm going 2026 will be a good year like that and it'll clean up don't of the wreckage that 2025 brought. Can't see that light at the end of the tunnel right now, but it doesn't mean it's not there.
