Basically the title.

Brief background information

After having tried all sorts of Elvanse (lisdexamfetamine) dosages (30, 50 and 70 mg) and noticing nothing at all, I’ve got prescribed with Medikinet 20 mg (Methylphenidate).

The thing

I don’t think I can properly articulate the experience in English, but I’m going to try anyway.

I noticed that, shortly after taking them, I start to feel as if I was on the verge of having a panic attack (maybe that’s a bit dramatic, IDK if I experienced one of those ever anyway). I become incredibly stressed, but for not apparent reason. Not only that, but I could not rationalize the source of my stress/discomfort.

It is an excruciating feeling. Thankfully, it does not last more than a couple of hours. Also, while going through it, I feel tired, exhausted even.

It is weird, very weird.

Trying to relax is futile, the same goes for breathing exercises, distractions etc…

Does anything here make any sense to you?

P.D: Thanks for reading this incomprehensible wall of text, I am currently in this shity state.
