For my first year of medication (ritalin) I felt like I had superpowers 😅 I took the pill and in like an hour I had a clear mind and I just knew where to start doing stuff...magic 🤣🤣 Eventually the superhero phase faded...my doc explained that it's normal, because we hit a maximum performance or something...a plateu? Not sure if this word is correct. I switched to vynvanse too and it worked better, but the superhero effect rarely happens anymore. I think it's kind of a perspective thing also....like, I couldn't concentrate and had awful executive function, suddenly for the first time I got those, so I felt like superhuman, but I was just experiencing a neurotipycal way...with time it just became my new baseline of functioning. So it's not like the beginning, but I still see a very clear difference from a day with and without meds
My doctor put me on extended release meds and I don’t really feel that they are working as well as immediate release would. Are yall on extended or immediate release? What are the differences? I’m new to this.
I found an alternative to medication that works really well and it has no crash at the end! It’s called Grey Matter and it basically a powder that you add water to and it tastes like strawberry lemonade!
Interesting. Lemmie take that it looks cool
oh yeah i have the entire thing mapped out lmao. like, the first 30 mins after i get really talkative, then normal for an hour or so and then that peak you’re talking about, and sometimes when there’s a random rush i check the time and see that it’s about to end (my 2nd dose legit only lasts for 4 hours consistently 😠even tho it’s supposed to be 5) and it’s like clockwork the peak and then the slight burst right at the end before the crash
I’m clinging on too little concerta
Definitely not alone, I feel it my stomach first and within an hour I peak. Talking to much. Don’t get discouraged about it meds, there doing wat they were designed to do. It’s just how our body metabolized.
YESS im talking and it feels like my mouth is moving faster then my brain
On Concerta, and yes, I can feel that uptake of “alright, let’s do this!” kind of energy toward the beginning. It does tend to wear off; so little bits of caffeine for me all day, it is. 👍🏼
the (rare, thankfully) times i forget to take them and am out somewhere and can’t, my go to is iced coffee lol next best thing
