Found a great med combo

I am so thankful I am to be in such a great place medicated. We finally settled on 27 mg Concerta most days of the week. I also have 18 mg Concerta as needed for lighter days or weekends when I sleep in. I’m not comfortable regularly skipping days, but I want some days where I’m less medicated. I still take Buspar daily, multi and supplements and propranolol as needed. My provider supports this plan.

The emotional regulation, and the newfound executive function to operate at a typical sustained level with conscious awareness of breaks before burnout is profound! Literally, I have so much less anxiety and so much more capacity / awareness for social engagement.

I am fully aware of my ADHD and I feel like understand what Neurotypical feels like. I love understanding why I am different and how I still totally fit. Maybe it’s because I’m a woman growing older, but I couldn’t love more how comfortable and confidence I am knowing my place in this world.
