    I feel that. Without caffeine and anger I would just be a sad, highly compressed ball of sadness and stress and sadness.

    I’ve been on all kinds of medications from age 7 to 26.

    Ritallin sped up my heart and I couldn’t keep up in gym class because I was constantly catching my breath.

    Concerta/dexadrine took away my appetite. One bite every meal, then I was full. I was pathetically skinny and got called anorexic all the time.

    Straterra made me tired and drousy all day, I was sexually frustrated because my dick would REFUSE to get hard, and then I would wake up at night, not being able to sleep.

    I’m 31 and madication free for 6 years, and have learned to overcome my ADHD on my own. Never swallowing a other ADHD pill again, fuck that shit entirely.

    I so badly want to be medicated again. However I’ll require yet another diagnosis even though I have 3 throughout the years. Problem is, it’s too difficult for me to get all my ducks in a triangle to get the process moving

    Anyways I hear meth works pretty much the same plus it’s easier to get so yeah imma check that out

      Methamphetamine is literally used as a treatment for ADHD. It’s also fairly easy to get a hold of amphetamine on the darknet which is used in things like Adderall. It honestly isn’t that bad of an idea to try amphetamine or even methamphetamine if you actually know the correct dosage range. Recreational users would typically start at a higher dosage than someone looking for medicinal effects. Over time though medical users can end up on a similar dosage to a recreational user due to tolerance.

    AuDHD and completely caffeine free (and stimulant/meds/drugs free too). Caffeine definitely doesn’t work for me like it does for other people - makes me sleepy and headachey. I’d rather just work with what I’ve got, (noise cancelling headphones + being inflexible) even if it has limitations
