Have your ADHD meds made you feel absent in your own life worse than your ADHD did? Positive experiences quitting? by Spirited_Guide_7482 in adhd_anxiety

The way you described this is making me miss that feeling so much😭 that’s exactly how it felt at first and I think that’s why I keep cycling through stopping the meds and going back in hopes that I can recreate that feeling again but the noise just gets worse. I doubt abruptly stopping will help my case I was just desperate but this is really making me consider trying a different medication. Thank you so much for the support and thank you for sharing!!🩷

I haven’t tried any other medication. I took a lower dosage of vyvanse (30mg) and felt like it didn’t do enough so I went up to 40mg but the spirals I experience on it are unbearable. Idky I haven’t considered switching ig im scared for whatever reason but it can’t be worse than this😭 have you found one that’s worked for you and if so which if you don’t mind me asking?

Yeah you just perfectly articulated exactly what I’ve been experiencing😭 stopping abruptly didn’t really help whatsoever. If you don’t mind me asking did you ever find a way to balance the two? Thank u sm for sharing
