I kept forgetting to take my supposedly, highly addictive, Adderall. And then, when I set an alarm to remind me, and took them regularly. My body just got use to it and they no longer did anything... 🥲

Just started on it on too low a dose and not only do I often forget to take it, it sometimes makes me sleepy. Also it doesn’t do shit, because again, too low a dose. At least it was validating because it definitely confirmed I actually have ADHD because a neurotypical person wouldnt get sleepy on a stimulant like that :/

Exactly. I explain to people it’s not like speed to me. I compare it to wearing glasses, things stop being foggy and become much clearer
