Well... After a very long and expensive and confusing MH journey and some frustrating technical hiccups, I've finally got to the point where I have a box of ritalin to start on tomorrow. Strange combination of nervous, excited, guilty, relieved. Feels a bit scary having so much of a schedule 8 drug in front of me. I hope to hell this finally helps me stop sabotaging myself constantly
Good luck. 3 years ago I was prescribed a similar stimulant. Went from washing dishes in a kitchen to IT manager.
They can change your life.
Thank you so much. Your story is unbelievably inspiring and I truly hope this might help me unlock that constantly thwarted potential (and prevent myself from ruining my gums from forgetting to brush for weeks on end).
I hope so too :) Be aware it will take about 3 months to settle with the medication. If you find it's not working, or giving you unwanted side effects, there are other options. Best of luck to you!
