Yup, I picked them up today. Tomorrow is my first dosage.

In my mid 20s I was told I was too high functioning for meds. That was a long time ago in a very conservative area that doesn’t in general believe in mental illness.

I’ve been quite successful without them. I’m an executive as an example. But this job I’m struggling more than I have in decades, in some ways I feel like I’m in my early 20s again.

With some encouragement from the ADHD community here I gave it a go. The first provider wasn’t helpful at all. The second one, bingo!

    Thank you! And the doctor warned me about that.

    In my youth I was prone to anger, likely part of my abusive childhood. So I’ll be on guard, as will my wife! 🍳
