My psych is letting me try ADHD meds without getting neuropsych testing after all, which is great because that shit’s expensive. Wish me luck getting it filled with the shortage and everything. I really hope it helps! I’m tired of being overwhelmed all the time and unable to focus on what I want to focus on.
Update: Day one on Adderall 10mg - It’s a little too early to tell, but it might feel a little bit easier to focus on stuff. I don’t feel “wired” or anything, and I’m still getting hungry as usual. My heart might be beating a little faster, which I was told to expect.
Yo can you elaborate on that second point please?
The genesight test specifically test for how your body would metabolize depression/anxiety and ADHD meds.
For example, if you are a poor metabolize of a drug, you would be more likely to have side effects. And if you are a hyper metabolize you wouldn’t respond as well to normal doses as you would break down and clear the drug faster that the average person.
Both of these issues would eventually show up through trial and error with dose adjustment over the corse of a year or so, however with the genetic testing you can get that information in a couple of weeks and avoid a lot of the back and forth with does and drug changes.
That sounds amazing.
