What does it feel like for you when you’ve used any ADHD medications? I have looked at a bunch of reddit-logo posts but I feel like there are never good answers for this. I have heard that they can help NT people with focus and such, or that y’all build up a tolerance after a bit. And then I hear for people with ADHD, that the first couple of times you take the meds, or if the dose is too high, that you’ll feel speedy/high.

I’ve been trialing meds with my psychiatrist for a while and I feel like I don’t even know if I have ADHD because of all this conflicting info and how I feel on them. I know it can take a lot of trying different types and doses but I just doubt my diagnosis I guess.

TL;DR: What do stimulants feel like for you’ve taken them semi-regularly?

    Thank you agony-wholesome It’s seriously such an accomplishment to be able to cook! I’m nearing my 40s which is horrifying, and it’s just kinda been downhill for me in terms of executive function and motivation for a lonnnng time.
