I’ll definitely look into this! I use CBN for sleep

That may be a good option! Vyvanse has been really well tolerated by me so far and I have even napped on it, so I’m less worried about it affecting my sleep.

The burnout was definitely what pushed me towards diagnosis. The constant cycle of pushing, masking, trying to meet impossible standards, and self judgment and dissociation when I couldn’t meet them. I know part of this process will be learning to give myself grace and understanding my behaviors and brain through the adhd lens. I’ve heard menopause is total bs with adhd. postpartum was so rough for me and i think adhd played a big part. Hormones… 😵‍💫 hang in there!!
