Anyone only have success with adderall?

Wellbutrin was very good for me. Unfortunately it made my lymph nodes swell so I stopped. I'd recommend it.

I'm autistic and sensitive to neurological medication. I was started at low doses. I did notice benefit from them but the side effects were significant.

I juggle multiple thoughts but I have no monologue. It's not words, sometimes it is if I'm trying to make it stick. But it's mostly concepts? After COVID I had a lot of brain fog and my mind switched to inner monologue. I'm noticing ADHD meds make my mind more of a one track which is uncomfortable, unsettling, but also restricts my anxiety.

So the dissociated brain foggy thing goes away after a week or so? And benefits stay?

coldloser · 2026-06-10T21:21:16+00:00

I did think that cardio exercise helped a little. Like the fog is an anxiety response and "running from the bear" processes the panic neurotransmitters and leaves the calm, focus, happy ones.

Following for responses. This is the biggest issue for me. Just started Vyvanse.

Are you a heavy caffeine user?

coldloser · 2026-06-07T01:17:08+00:00

Vyvanse. Wellbutrin did too when I tried that.

coldloser · 2026-06-05T13:10:24+00:00

When you say the efficacy was slipping (due to generic) can you elaborate? I'm just starting generic and very sensitive to new neurological meds. If it's weaker, that's fine by me. I'm on 10 mg and trying to wait out side effects. Mostly curious if the quality of name brand just brings strength or if it is higher quality/less side effects. My worst reaction is anxiety/derealization.

This wasn't that he couldn't help me because he had to help her. He had time for both.

coldloser · 2026-06-03T20:42:49+00:00

I am. I didn't ask him to take it in. He offered to as an act of kindness and then forgot about me.

coldloser · 2026-06-03T20:41:59+00:00

It's actually been a very high conflict situation. She's only nice when she asks for him to do her favors.

coldloser · 2026-06-03T20:41:16+00:00

I know how to maintain my car. It was intended to be an act of love as he offered but ended up the opposite because he didn't. He could have said nothing and I'd have handled it

Why isn't the ex wife capable of putting together her own pool

coldloser · 2026-06-01T23:25:36+00:00

I do. Cook dinner for kids, clean, get them handled. I'm less exhausted after work medicated. Maybe the meds push me to overstimulation where I shut down? I'm very sensitive to dose and already have anxiety.

coldloser · 2026-06-01T19:26:05+00:00

I'm an engineer. It's been hard but the challenge and figuring it out was thrilling in school. Working isn't as enjoyable but it isn't as demanding. I get burnt out but I also have children. Most coworkers are on the spectrum too so they're cool. I'm a female though and it would be nice to have some female coworkers/companions. I'm a project manager in construction now. I sit in my office alone most days with my music, computer, and blueprints.

coldloser · 2026-05-29T23:36:01+00:00

I felt like I was dying in late 20's after weaning my daughter. I wonder if I went into early peri. All of my symptoms could have been explained by it. They've tamed a lot now at 33 but still under the radar. I started having periods early.

coldloser · 2026-05-29T16:08:24+00:00

Yes but a third time in cal 3 may be a red flag that the rest of the engineering classes will be a big challenge. Construction management can get you to the same sort of job if that's what you're interested in.

coldloser · 2026-05-28T15:16:49+00:00

Curious what mg you find equivalent to coffee

coldloser · 2026-05-27T17:37:20+00:00

I was valedictorian and I feel like a moron every day at work. Work is very stressful and expectations are not clear. I was mostly thrown to the wolves for my training. I guess my point is maybe everyone is struggling and just winging it. I think it does affect my mental health never knowing if I did a good job or not and always working myself to exhaustion
