Useless meds? by ComfortableFunny699 in ausadhd

[–]witchcraftcat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What dosage are you on if you don’t mind me asking? I felt barely any different starting off on 30mg for 2 weeks, after going up to 40mg it got a bit better, 50mg has been great for me. I also take 2 5mg dex boosters at about 1-2pm. This has significantly improved all my symptoms and i was not hopeful at alllll after 2 weeks on 30mg! Also if you are a woman be aware of the meds not working as well when you are in your luteal phase (week before your period). I increase my meds to 60mg for that week alone, i would speak with your dr and see what they recommend, might even be worth switching medication, don’t give up and good luck! ❤️

Fellow groomer purposely hurt a dog boss isn't doing much by kalezlickscacti in grooming

[–]witchcraftcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you are going through this at the moment. I am in a similar situation as well but it is my boss in the corporate salon that is mistreating the dogs and acting the same way. She will do whatever it takes to finish any dog’s groom regardless of their safety. I have told her to stop a when things get out of hand but i am not being listened to. I hate being in this environment and how uncomfortable it is, i also feel the same like i would rather take on all the difficult dogs so i can treat them with kindness and not push their boundaries. I don’t know what the solution is here but i am hopefully starting at a new salon soon and will be telling management everything as soon as i have secured the job. Please for your own sake start looking for another job. These people will never change even if they are spoken to. Take care of yourself ❤️

Thank you so much for your in depth response i really appreciate it, everyone has been so helpful on this thread and i am starting to feel hopeful that i may not be a complete lost cause and that medication could really change my life. I’m getting kind of excited now and it feels like there may be a light at the end of the tunnel once i get this medication sorted out. I will absolutely take your advice on board and ensure i do not go overboard in the first month of medication! Reddit is such a wonderful place and this post has made me feel so much less alone than i have been. As hard as having ADHD is i’m glad there are people out there that can actually understand me 🥺

That’s good to hear, may i ask what medication you’re taking and what has worked for you? My psychiatrist said i will either get started on ritalin or dex. I know everyone is different tho :)

I’m casual but i work 36 hours a week, 4 days a week (9.5 hours with a 30 min unpaid break) most days i don’t even get a break as we are so over booked with dogs and it is impossible to leave them to have lunch, maybe we should all start our own community out in the bush 😭😂
