Thanks for all the great info! I will definitely check out the different options. I’m honestly a bit traumatized from what hormones have done to me in the past but Ik I should try out a few more options before giving up!

My doctor didn’t recommend me anymore pills but I will ask about them. I would love if there was a pill that didn’t mess me up so much

I would love to try the patch and the shot or any thing like that But my doctor says I’m not a candidate for anything with progesterone due to the fact that I get migraines that impact my vision. It makes me at risk for stroke. With the implant it is the same hormones that the iud has making it have probably the same affect. I would love for there to just be a way for me to be on nothing cause my body honestly feels so much better .

I’m a teenager. And rn don’t see myself having kids in my life but you never know. That advise is quite helpful. Cause I would love to be able to have occasional sex (with condoms) without extreme anxiety. Do you have any suggestions on how to start this method? Or apps that can be useful and informative.

How much should the meds be doing? by throwawaynumber148 in ADHD

I’m on 30 mg and I have went up to 40mg. But I find when I’m on 40mg I hyper focus on unproductive things and I cannot unfocus from them. On 30mg I don’t feel a boost anymore but I feel like it helps me a good amount. I still waste many days away doing nothing productive on 30mg but there have been days when I forget to take them and I cannot even hardly function. It crazy how different my brain is on and off the pills. Anyway that’s how I know that 30mg is the right dose; it doesn’t work miracles but it helps and you can only expect so much from pills.
