This rly sucks, I think I’m withdrawing :(

Pharmacy is out until (possibly, they only give vague answers) well into next week, doctor’s office is closed for weekend so I can’t get them to transfer it, am just fucked until maybeee Monday if they ever respond to my voicemail. It took them a while to respond to me wanting to refill it at all, I guess I should’ve done it earlier

Is not as bad as cold turkeying antidepressants but I’m just a mess today (2nd day) :( Been in bed all day, feel badd

And somehow I feel guilty, like I don’t need this stuff to be functional, have these feelings bothering me especially when I’m trying to access my medication cuz I think it would ruin my month if the pharmacists told me I’m just a drug addict like I have heard happen to so many other ppl

Has been incredible life change since I got these meds a few months. I hope getting back on isn’t too roughh

Idk i guess im just making this to whine, i may delete

    Don’t delete, your pain and discomfort are real and you deserve to not feel them.

    I feel for you. I’m on Strattera now because I couldn’t find a stimulant that didn’t eventually give me diminishing returns on the benefits without the drawbacks full-force, but not being on them for a couple months due to not having insurance was rough. I hope you can get what you need soon. Hang in there.

      Honestly might be easier sometimes lmao

      I could do it tbh but as usual, the issue is in supplies and the state not throwing you in prison for decades so no plans to do anything like that ofc :(

      Its sooo difficult getting on and staying on meds, especially if you’re honest like me and tell doctors about drug use :/ (I don’t recommend lol, I’m just rly bad at lying and keeping up lies)

      I did find a doctor recently who is cool and actually seems to listen to me which is nice. Before this person, I had someone who refused to prescribe stimulants, I tried all the other options and they didn’t do anything good for me, knew I had to find someone else when she suddenly “diagnosed” me as bipolar and wanted me to start on antipsychotics (??)

      Since I got on stimulants it has been genuinely kinda life-changing lol. And ironically, but not unexpectedly tbh, my desire to use other drugs is at an all-time low hehe

      Rly hope you can figure it out soon <3 I finally got my meds today thankfully

      Btw, have never been officially diagnosed besides ADHD but I’m pretty sure I also have the double “curse” if you mean AuDHD lol. Idk, these days I’m okay with it even, I don’t think of it as a curse usually anymore. Like, it has benefits in creative work I think lol, is just a nice way to live sometimes idk

    that sucks. ive heard a lot of horror stories from my friends with adhd about the pharmacy just not having it when they needed it… and if they try to get the pills early or ask when they can get their refill they’re treated like drug seekers catgirl-flop

    hope you get them back soon comrade cuddle
