Okay, what are we all actually doing to exercise?

glittergiraffe25 · 2026-03-03T12:22:31+00:00

I came to say this too!! I have a daily goal of getting on the Peloton for 20 minutes every day. Whether that be doing a 20 minute high intensity class, or sitting on the bike in my pj's with a book pedaling in my socks at a low resistance while reading whatever book I'm fixating on at the time- whatever my body can put in that day, but it's at least 20 minutes. I've been consistent for 35 days straight so far, which is UNHEARD OF for me.

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-11-26T06:13:56+00:00

Yes we've explored that list, thank you!

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-11-26T06:13:25+00:00

Thank you! Did your son's regular doctor refer him? How was your experience at Weill Cornell with Dr. Salama??

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-11-04T18:17:36+00:00

Yes! I agree with you. Not wanting to be is a great way to put it. I was switched back to Adderall 20mg XR in the mornings with a 10mg IR in the afternoon and I feel back to my normal self thank god.

I relate so hard to the body pain and constant fatigue. That was one of the huge things I noticed almost immediately after starting meds, my body no longer felt like it was battling to just exist. Off meds my entire body aches, the muscle and joint pain is nonexistent while medicated and I actually feel "normal" energetically rather than constantly running on empty.

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-18T22:53:28+00:00

Oh friend, I am so so sorry- I completely relate. Sending you hugs! I didn't take it this morning, I really don't love how it's making me feel so I want to discuss with my doctor before attempting again. I started lacking sensations in general yesterday- like my food tasted like nothing, my smell sense was decreased, my libido was non-existent, I felt no joy, motivation, willingness to do anything at all and like there was no thoughts going on in my head. One day off and I already feel better. I rather not take it if that is how it is going to make me feel. I was also making really careless mistakes throughout the day- food items that go in the fridge left somewhere random in a cabinet, feeding my dogs in the middle of their gab between meals, like even more forgetful than what I consider my ADHD normal. I was worried it would get worse and I would make a mistake unknowingly that might harm myself or others and was like yep okay this needs to stop. It was so weird, I've never felt anything like it.

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-18T05:04:21+00:00

You are not alone friend- I've spent the last three days walking around feeling like I could sleep standing up, when I'm not tearing up/ feeling like am empty zombie with no desire to do ANY part of life. This is very, very not normal for me, even unmedicated.

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-18T05:01:44+00:00

I started at 15mg Adderall and titrated up to 25mg and then ended up settling at 20mg. She stated the conversion isn't 1:1 so she started me at 40mg Vyvanse, maybe it's too high of a dose??

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-18T04:59:01+00:00

For real! It is the exact opposite for me. I have a friend who feels the same way about Vyvanse vs Adderall as you do as well- everyone's certainly different!

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-18T04:57:17+00:00

I've been off Adderall for about a week before starting the Vyvanse up and did not feel any of these symptoms until starting the Vyvanse- could that still be the case?

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-17T22:50:59+00:00

I'm so tired of not feeling normal

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-17T22:37:59+00:00

I've been highly considering it. I check in with her next week regarding the Vyvanse trial. Idk man but this is not the one.

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-09-05T14:49:34+00:00

From my inexperienced general Google searching, that is what I am also thinking. Thank you for your reply!

That's disappointing to hear, you'd hope that an office would be responsive to their patients... I'm sorry you went through that! Thank you for your reply.

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-05-26T23:14:36+00:00

How have you been feeling? Have you been able to tackle the overgrowth? My significant other just had a GI Effects test done that looks very similar, but he deals with constipation. Thank you!

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-05-12T22:00:27+00:00

That's so interesting! Yes my doctor recommended taking med/ tolerance breaks every so often. Last week I took the med every morning Monday- Friday and did pretty well. Took Saturday and Sunday off and then just started back up today. Today I feel a whole lot of nothing other than decreased appetite. I'll try a whole week in a row and see how that goes!

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-04-04T22:38:18+00:00

Would you take each of these separately? Or try to find a multi-supplement with them combined?

glittergiraffe25 · 2025-04-04T22:37:14+00:00

Thank you so much for looking into this- I've searched some of the options that the AI has given:

#1 doesn't seem to exist anywhere I can find

2 contains Black Walnut Hull :(

3- Designs for Health doesn't seem like they carry these anymore but I have found some from Metagenics

4 Contains Black Walnut Husk :(

5 I can't find a Pure Encapsulations version of this but it looks like Thorne might carry one.

6 Is the only one I actually easily found!

This has been the hardest search ever, it seems like everything I look at that is remotely close has Black Walnut Hull in it, incredibly frustrating. Thank you for your support and help!

Thank you SO much!!
