My ADHD Journey: Why I Cried When I Went on Medication for the First Time


Listen Later

Have you been considering ADHD medication but want to know more about what it’s like?


Ever since I released my episode about what it’s like to live with ADHD (and the quirks I didn’t realise weren’t just my personality!), you guys have been asking for an episode about my experience with ADHD medication. 


So here it is.


Medication is not for everyone, and I know the thought of being on medication can be really scary. So in this episode, I’m talking to you about my experience with 3x different types of ADHD medication, which ones I decided weren’t for me, and why I got so emotional the first time I took the tablet. 


You’ll hear:

My experiences with ADHD meds Ritalin, Vyvanse and Dexamphetamine

What happened when I went off my meds for the first time in 8 months…

My fears about becoming a robot and having no emotion

The side effects I experienced that made me stop ASAP

… and so much more


If you haven’t listened to my first episode about my experience with ADHD: the good, the bad and the chaotic then make sure to queue it up next! Listen on Apple or Spotify.
