Maybe I don't have ADHD after all 🤔

[-] [email protected] 30 points 7 months ago

ADHD is also connected with increased rates of obesity. While some forget to eat, others can’t stop eating in that never ending search for dopamine.

Easy solution: just start smoking

what medicine are you on if you don't mind me asking?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

currently none because my insurance says i need something called a "prior authorization" which means i have to spend hours playing phone tag with my doctor first 🫠

I am hoping that amphetamine salts will help me not be bored-hungry all the time and help with motivation to get to the gym regularly. I miss being healthy :[

I think it has to do with the medicine. I'm on a less common ADHD medication and I don't get like this. Unless I'm working for some reason 🤷‍♀️

I am assuming this is referring to medicated ADHD. Stimulates are often associated with decreased hunger. When I was on vyvanse I completely lost my sense of hunger and only went off my bloodsuger. Like "damn I feel dizzy and zombie like. Food time"

I'm on Focalin and I can't relate so it probably is the medicine 👍

Aaah suddenly this makes a lot more sense, thanks for the clarification.

I'm undiagnosed (finally should get that done... 🫣), so I have absolutely no experience with the medication.

Late to this party, but I binge eat when I’m off my meds.

I lost 45 lbs (~20 kilos) the first year I was on meds. Didn’t skip meals or anything - just stopped eating second whole meals after the first.
