Adderall is an appetite suppressant. If you’re concerned, talk to your doctor.

I had to learn to plan times to eat (rather than randomly wanting food all the time for a dopamine hit) but once I start eating my appetite is the same. Some people do loose their appetite though!

I lost my appetite and developed an eating disorder. I had to start going to a nutritionist because my hair was breaking off.
I set timers on when to eat because I don’t get hungry.

I actually gained weight because my body went into starvation mode and held onto every calorie I managed to put into it.

This is what I’m certain my body will do as well. Glad you were able to see a nutritionist

I lost weight when I took it more regularly. Rebounded when my appetite came back from getting used to it and I’d fixate on eating.

This happened to me as well on instants!

Lose weight for the most part, however once it wears off or you stop taking, weight gain is often a side effecf

Do you mention who your clients are in interviews? I can never tell what the right way to do this is. I usually say something along the lines of “a large client in X industry/vertical” because dropping the client name feels tacky? But at the same time, my main client is niche and knowing who is kind of vital to understand the work.

Movers are coming tomorrow and I have procrastinated packing the miscellaneous drawers and whatnot. My lack of organization becomes very apparent when I pull out 10 different categories of things from one drawer. Chuck 25% and the rest gets put in a box to the new place. Anyone else feel that packing for a move is harder than it should be?

I recently switched to Strattera (had been on Adderall for 6 years) to see if it’d help my sleep issues. Been taking for 6 weeks total, almost 4 at the current dose. My focus isn’t too bad, but I’ve been feeling really… blah… and unwell later in the day and not as motivated overall. Also been having more obsessive impulses, though my anxiety seems to be better. Anyone else have this experience? Did it change over time?

Newly diagnosed & medicated and new to consulting.
I’m great with clients but getting bad evaluations because I’m slow to produce work and don’t take time to communicate status.
I’m trying really hard but I keep getting stuck in perfection loops and scared to share things before they’re perfect.

Did you struggle with this & find a way to improve? I’m terrified I’m going to get counseled out, but I love this job so much.
