More likely though it’s a normal turner inside, and she just has her keys ready to lock the deadbolt from the outside. That’s how our apartment is.

I had to go into a partial psych care program because I literally was only eating like 1 meal a day, I was very underweight, and it was making the depression really bad because my body had nothing to work with. Even when the ADHD med wore off I had so little energy that I didn’t want to find food before bed. The psychiatrist ended up switching me from Vyvanse back to Adderall, and then a month later lowering my dosage of Adderall from 30mg to 20mg. I definitely feel like my ADHD is harder to manage, but it seems to be the happiest medium I’ve found for the moment.

He did not say to give all of your money to them though. He said to give the Romans just the portion that is owed them (and by extension, to anyone you owe money to).

The way caffeine works is that it blocks the receptors in the brain for adenosine, which is responsible for slowing down the neurons in your brain, making you feel sleepy. It also causes the release of adrenaline, which is a stimulant and thus can help ADHD brains focus. Additionally, it makes your blood vessels (especially in your brain) constrict, which can make other stimulants take effect faster. As if that weren’t enough, it also slows dopamine reabsorption, which feels rewarding (the major contributor to caffeine addiction).

These are the upsides, but caffeine comes with serious downsides if you use it regularly (i.e. more than twice a week). In particular, it seriously inhibits your ability to get truly deep, restorative sleep, even if you only have it in the morning.

Tl;dr: It can make you feel more awake, but it can’t replenish your energy stores. It basically puts a pin below the needle of your mental fuel gauge so it can’t drop below half a tank, but doesn’t actually fill the tank.

Technically all the dopamine you need is there, it’s just that there aren’t enough receptors to receive it. Hardly more than a semantic difference though, besides being even more frustrating knowing it’s literally all up there but there aren’t enough doors for it to squeeze in to the party bus fast enough.
