It has been a year and I can confidently say that, yes, physically I feel much better having bumped back down to the minimum dose of ‘ADHD’ meds (buproprion).

But also: Good grief I miss the higher dose. I’m definitely struggling more with executive dysfunction and life management and motivation stuff. 😣

On the bright side, this minimum dose does seem to be doing fine at keeping my mood in a reasonable range, which is what I was MOST worried about with the med change. So. That’s good!

#medication mention #health flails #actually adhd #I’d talk to a psychiatrist about maybe trying a more trad adhd med at a low dose to SUPPLEMENT the buproprion #but this entire issue has been that I just seem to be sensitive as fuck to anything and everything that even vaguely resembles a stimulant #which is uh #inconvenient!when I have ADHD!#my brain and my heart & central nervous system need to settle their differences dammit #hmnnn the other option is bumping the bupropion back up one step if the doc doesn’t think the side effects were *harmful*?#idk. the physical symptoms were much more unpleasant than the general not-quite-managed ADHD #but the not-quite-managed-ADHD is much more greatly affecting my LIFE nad my goals and my overall fulfilment #and also my uh. driving. I can notice a difference in my driving and I do NOT like that >_>;#life flails #complaining
