Does anyone else experience variation in what the effect of their meds feels like?
I’ve gradually increased my dose to 2 x 30 mg of slow release methylphenidat and have had a couple of days where I felt fantastic. Very focused but also calm and balanced. I had this very strong feeling of “really being myself” as in being able to use my full potential as a person.
Then I have some days where I barely notice anything and today I’ve mostly just felt jittery and a bit anxious. I can feel the stimulating effect on my body (higher heart rate) but without the mentally calming effect.


Yeah I have this same issue. Just started meds for ADHD and so still trying to find the right med and dose. I havent tried a new med, just been slowly increasing the dose. More often than not it doesn’t help, but sometimes it does. They keep saying its a dose thing, but I’m beginning to think its the med itself. I’m on dexmethylphenidate (or however its spelt).
