Brain Fog and Fatigue
When you don’t take your medication are you excessively tired and or does it feel like you’re head is super foggy? This is the case for me. My mood also seems to be lower than usual but I also suffer from major depressive disorder. So I wonder if I just benefit from stimulants because of my depression and not because of ADHD.
Today I am attempting not take my medication. I don’t want to feel like I’m addicted to it or overly reliant on it but I struggle to have any engagement when I don’t take it. Sadly even when I take it I still can’t seem to focus or be as productive as I’d like to be but that could be due to my job being super boring, my depression and not caring about much, or my rapid thoughts due to anxiety. Currently I’m prescribed 30 mg of extended release Adderal.
