Interested primarily in hearing from people who’ve tried more than one type of ADHD Zmedication, to compare their experience under each one. Also interested in people who just know what various different med types are targetting.
I’m in titration for medikinet’s Methylphenidate Hydrochloride and it doesn’t seem so effective. Very little difference to how i behave on it versus off of it, it does heighten my sense of fun and make me focus in videogames for longer though. It does make talking to people and masking a lot easier, however. I’m wondering if i should ask to switch to another one.
I benefit most from the amphetamine/dextroamphetamine ones, which give me an energy boost (e.g. vyvanse, mixed salts). Methylphenidate ones (e.g. focalin, concerta) give me only focus and it feels like everything else slows down, making for some long and tired days. I can’t speak for the strattera/guanfacine/Qelbree type stuff. But essentially if one particular category of the three types works, that’s your lane.
