Starting ADHD Medication
Day 1 (2026-05-20)

Day 5
Sorry for the radio silence. We’ve been doing work at our parent’s house for a few days. Meds have been going well, I’m able to do things without getting very upset about having to do them now. My motivation is back and I feel like I could make something creative soon.
Sadly this upturn in energy has corresponded with a massive heatwave in Britain, so I’m not actually able to do too much. I’ll ride out the wave first…
Day 8
Still melting. It’s hard for us to do much of anything right now.
…
Day 27
wow. um. what a month. got a flu that i’m just now recovering from. kind of hampered our ability to do tasks for a bit… i think the meds have boosted our mood and given us the ability to draw art and stuff. going to up my dose soon.
Day 44
FINALLY got our new meds. took a while haha. going to take them tomorroww ^^
Day 51
i don’t like these meds :-(. they have made us rly anxious around lunchtime. like i have had an anxiety attack cos i missed food at lunch. but i ate a hearty lunch today and im still anxious. ghh. maybe i’m not compatible with methylphenidate. i might stop taking them tomorrow.
