Do it! ADHD can screw with emotional regulation or cause you to hyper fixate on intrusive thoughts etc. It's not all fun rabbit holes n may be impacting you in ways you didn't realize (like me) 💗

I had emotional regulation and hyperfixating on intrusive thoughts and memories big time until I started on Elvanse. It was really really bad by the end. It turned out that Elvanse was quite a life saving medication for me and if I forget to take it for a few days it becomes a lot harder to maintain the dysregulation.

And nobody ever told that this could be a symptom of something and not just self-centered over-thinking! I've just recently started to realise the same: fixating on intrusive thoughts, feelings of anxiety/anger or constant existential crisis has apprently been just ADHD all along (well, not just that of course but oh boi does it amplify them). And how can this medicine turn them off just like that?! Why didn't I have access to this before?!

my partner is going to a psych today and I'll be going too if it proves to be affordable
