    I am officially diagnosed with ADHD combined type! After waiting so long for my appointment and feeling so anxious that I was somehow wrong about it, it’s a huge relief. I get to try medication and looking forward to the bonus weightloss that comes from it lol

      bonus weightloss that comes from it

      I’m on day 3 of starting my meds and I feel like the loss of appetite is real. Like, I used to forget to eat at regular times because of the ADHD, now I’m not eating that much because of the ADHD meds. I could barely finish half of my dinner last night and as of 1pm today I’ve had half a banana.

        Oh damn, it really is hitting you hard. For me it hasn’t been too bad overall, my appetite seemed to not be too impacted, but I’m wondering if it’s the low dose I’ve started on.
