Boi howdy Ima tryin! People should also know Adderall to get up and Valium (Diazepam) to go down will increase your tolerance and dependency on both! I think these two are specifically contraindicated for that reason

P.s. all the trans people in my life diy, and they all found mentoring communities to learn from, some on 4-chan. Why can’t neurodivergent people get together and share strategies, instead of walking through life feeling like a piece of shit bc you can’t hold down a job or socialize sober. Those are symptoms, and those of us that went through the diagnostic process are LUCKY to be able to talk about it and help bring others in to reduce the harm of their coping mechanisms. This isn’t reddit, you want a heavily modded space, head on back. I want real stories, from real lives, warts and all.

Sorry, I’m so tired and I can’t stop worrying about 14 things and my heart rate won’t drop below 80, and this prudish anti whatever attitude is irking

I want to talk about this bc instead of sleeping I’m still gripped with energy from the 10mg IR Adderall I took 20 hours ago. And I’m out of the diazepam they scripted to help. I hate my meds rn and can’t get the pro’s to try anything else with me. My low season is about to start and I’m really scared, I’m already drinking too much, started smoking cigs again. I tried two different ADHD meds since I got diagnosed Oct '23, decent results with stratera but bad, can’t tell if it’s real kinda dreams, couldn’t eat either. I really don’t like Adderall, it just feels like cocaine, going on 9 mo. I was at my best micro dosing mushrooms during the year I waited for my diagnosis. I dialed in to .017-.020 mcg as my sweet spot. Over .021 made me spacey, which wasn’t a bad day, just less balanced.

We have to talk about self-medicating as a community bc people end up drinking, smoking, over-doing psych’s, self harm. We need to be real, and ready to have harm reduction conversations with people that can’t or don’t get a diagnosis. We need to be able to educate and help each other when there is no physician to consult OR you have a lazy-ass NP that only spends 5 min to figure out what refills to send. It’s going to be another 6 weeks before I have a chance to get referred to another NP and I don’t know what my options are. OR you lost your fucking letter and the providers make you start the process over, which is what my partner is dealing with. I’m in the US and our insurance costs 1k/mo for this FUCKIN BULLSHIT

feeling sassy might delete, good luck out there

Me too! Drop Dead Fred made me think it was a thing! Also Phoebe Cates is so convincing
