My adhd meds really help me a lot and they really do calm my brain down. You need to be on the right dose and the right type of medication. The meds don’t cure me though, they help me to slow down enough to use other strategies to cope. I don’t know what is going on with Jack, but please don’t let her put you off. I think she loves having an excuse for her shittiness, so makes no effort to let the medication do its job.So I've yet to be medicated for ADHD but how come Jack's medication doesnt even touch the sides of her symptoms?
Genuinely if a frau on ADHD meds can confirm this isn't normal for me? Because if not that's very concerning!
Full disclosure I have also abused my medication in the past, and it made me really strung out - this is actually how Jack comes across to me so she may be taking too much or not really need it.
