Just found out that the med finally has generic versions out right now in the US! If you pay out of pocket the price is less than a third of the name brand, and will probably be less of you have insurance.

This is going to *literally* save me thousands of dollars per year.

Another thing: / definitely activates me /wakes me up in the morning, (mostly) regardless of the amount of sleep I had.
That means that I have to intentionally make sure I get enough sleep the night before!
This is a lot easier with meds than without because I can decide to sleep and follow through, but still it takes active consideration.
The unhealthy ADHD pattern of “staying awake until I collapse” does not work when taking meds.

@techsuppork it's all exhausting tbh.

The past few years I went from:

Undiagnosed.

Realizing I have a problem and seeking diagnosis.

Getting that diagnosis.

Trying to manage the medication's ability to exasperate my anxiety.

Trying to manage friends and family that don't understand the disorder and the changes in my mood and habits I was going through.

Accepting that I am not and these "friends" didn't want to even try to understand.

Cutting them out of my life and being personally lonely, while at the same time realizing I am not alone in my thoughts, habits and behavior and accepting that I'm different. I am different, but millions of others are different too and none of us have to feel alone in our "craziness" that is our brains.

Oooooh, the has kicked in! I'm ready to get stuff done!

I believe I need to tackle updating my instance and figure out why GitHub OAuth2 isn't working on my Hoppscotch install this morning 🤓

This also looks like it could be fun to play with - github.com/mrusme/neonmodem

Trying the first dose of today, hopefully ending a year of med uncertainty & disruption. I’m about two months into a new job & desperately need the brain I’ve come to rely on back. 💊🤞🏻

Saw the girlfriend off to work, had a bowl of cereal, took one of the few I have left and now I've crawled back into bed for a little .

I hope I can be today.

After almost a year of interrupted or unavailable I finally have a new psych NP and a new prescription for and I’m almost in tears imagining actually being able to do my job, manage relationships, !READ! without constant force and terror of failure. I needed to try something new anyways, Adderall effectiveness was reducing after 7+ years, although I’m not looking forward to the month long process to find the right dose again.
