Wait, drugs work for you guys? ๐Ÿ˜”

Every prescription ADHD drug I tried gave me anxiety and made me pee every 20-40 minutes. Then I'd get more anxiety because I'd have to pee so often. It also made all my normal habits into unhealthy habits. Ever since I took any meds, I've been unable to drink coffee now without the same issues.

Now I just raw dog life. People either accept me as I am or I just stop talking to them because no prescribed pill or social pressure is worth it for me anymore. At least I'm happier now.

Vyvanse does for me. None of the others really helped much.
