tfw you have a few months left in savings and finally get around to looking up disability and it’s all “we’ll get around to it in 6-9 months.”

    Stimulants help a lot. Sometimes, I’ll catch myself getting motivated for the wrong task, though. I also have to force myself to eat sometimes. Lastly, I’d have a heart attack if I ever drank coffee.

    I’m prescribed methylphenidate lr. It’s a lot less intense than amphetamines.

      I went though just about every stimulant on the market about 20 years ago. Most did nothing, but a couple had me going through panic attacks for routine work issues. After two years on the pharma-go-round I’d had enough. I got this far in life rawdogging reality. How bad can it get?

      Narrator: Yes.

        Did you try again? Bodies change, I was in a group therapy where one guy said that meds didn’t help him when he was a kid, but now 15 years later he tried again and they work. Can be a big help.
