First day on new meds
Obviously will see how things go but already I am calm, collected, focused.
Ritalin was different - lots of focus, but like. It had to happen. Lisdexamphetamine (vyvanse / elvanse) put the focus just. There. Available. Useful. I don't have to use the focus on thinking everything through manually to make it happen like with ritalin.
I'm encouraged by the preliminary results, but skeptical of the price tag 💸
Me: *reads medication side effects*
The side effects: bloating, "moon face", swollen feet, muscle weakness, eyesight issues, risen heartrate and bloodpressure...
Me: *as the list keeps getting longer, and longer* Oh wow... I really hope I don't get that "moon face", it takes like 6 months to a year for that kind of swelling to go away and I really like my face as is.
Also me: Still worth it though, if the medication works.
