ADHD medication update⁣ 💕⁣I was diagnosed with ADHD earlier this year. I was finally able to start on medication in May, and yesterday I had my five week follow up appointment with my doctor! ⁣⁣Believe me when I say this… the difference I feel on medication has been night and day:⁣⁣My mood is more stable and I no longer feel like like I’m on an emotional rollercoaster. ⁣⁣I experience so much less anxiety throughout the day.⁣⁣I’m able to focus on what I’m doing and am not as easily distracted.⁣⁣I FINALLY feel like I’m able to balance things in my life now…⁣⁣And the MOST important thing I’ve noticed… Is that I TRULY have an overall more positive sense of self and confidence in my abilities.⁣⁣I can vividly remember all of the panic attacks, feelings of hopelessness, and how I felt completely unable to control my brain at so many times throughout my life, especially as a child. Constantly overwhelmed, unconfident, and unsure. Doubting myself at every step because my brain was unable to function like neurotypical one…⁣⁣And now, it feel’s as if a switch has been flipped. Like some sort of mental fog has been lifted. It’s truly been life changing…⁣⁣To anyone out there on the fence about getting help, I promise you… Medication is not a crutch, no matter what anyone else says. It’s a form of self care. And you deserve that care. ❤️
