20mg - having trouble getting sleep

Just starting now. Doc said try 5mg twice a day (10mg split in two). Not sure it made enough of a difference. May try the full 10 in morning itself.

Oh god I’m 40 mg a day and I’m a small woman. I thought I was on the low end... but I think I’m on the high end of the spectrum. Both my psychiatrists said “I can’t believe you made it this far without a diagnosis” when I got diagnosed as an adult 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Huh? I do not crash from adderall. The “high” I was describing was how I feel when I don’t take my meds! Haha

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.
