This half my problem now. Anxiety is gone, brain chaos gone, constantly planing 10000000 conversations that never happen, the double think on messages... too.. none of that.. except now I have 0 initiation or drive to start anything. Go to gym? Nope. Do laundry? Nope. Do dishes? Nope. Work? Possibly. Etc. Infuriating as ao many people dont understand that i WANT to do these things but getting from thinking to actually doing it, its like there just isnt a connection so my body doesn't know how to start even if ive done jt a million times. Fuckin weird.
So many people don't know what action potential in neurons are. You don't actually will something into bodily action. Your brain use neurotransmitters to start ANYTHING. ADHDers typically need more dopamine to start that action, but because it is enough to will it for normal people, they think that is all there is to it. Without enough neurotransmitters in the right synapses, it doesn't matter how much you want something. Which is also related to why we humans don't usually run when dreaming about running. The brain inhibit the action.
Yeah and I noticed if I stop adderal for a week or two. And start back up. I actually have drive and initiation for a solid. Like 5 days. The. Back to juat hyper focus, task switching, and none of my other shit.
