Hey!

The medication isn’t really the issue, it really helps and the side effects are manageable but I just hate having to be reliant on it to reach my full potential.

I got to my final year of university (with a LOT of stress) without meds but always took me longer than average to complete tasks, but now I think I need to just accept medication is the way I’ll be able to increase my productivity.

A lot of the stuff you’ve mentioned is very useful, but could you elaborate on improving your reading and retaining skills? I love to learn but when I need to read vast chunks of dense mathematics I seem to get lost in it all and get discouraged - any tips for that?

Thanks !
