I stopped taking my prescription two weeks ago because some of its side effects felt very unpleasant. The first couple of days went great (with help from coffee and weed) but I'm already in doubt whether this was a good idea.

I am 50 and was just recently diagnosed and started taking meds.

The difference has been night and day. I still struggle to take my pull in the morning sometimes

I look back on my life and wonder what I could have accomplished if I had been diagnosed and treated earlier.

Life is taking me raw and tbh staying OFF of caffeine has helped me. Sleep is hella important for my insomniac ass.

It’s true. I went to an NHS ADHD clinic and they turned me away without testing anything, after a year on the waiting list, as I didn’t look mental enough (though they told me there was definitely something up). Ever since I have survived on caffeine and rage.
