When you feel the sickness creeping in, what can you do to prevent it from getting worse. Currently keep clearing my throat, but so far doesn’t hurt yet. Any advice? Don’t think it’s COVID, could just be a common cold. After all, it is the season for it.

Yeah but could covid get tested then if it's not. Still don't go out. If your sick, do go spreading it. Rest is the best thing for the body. May get some hot tea and rest on the conch with some TV

Rest, hydration, and a hot toddy before bed.

EmergenC, honey lemon tea, keep yourself nice and toasty, sleep more

Zinc and vitamin C plus lots of water and rest. Just find a show and watch it, nap 20 minutes every 2 episodes. Have fun!

If I feel a scratch throat, I use zicam right away.

When i felt myself getting sick i started popping vit c, drinking more tea, lots of water and I happened to have a zpack at home. I also did the lemons/oranges/cinnamon steam breathing thing too. Helped with congestion. Idk if it was covid but in 2-3 days i was fine.

Try black seed oil or boiling lemons, orange, ginger and turmeric together in a pot

Is anyone on a low dose of Adderall or a similar stimulant, and do you find it helpful/effective?

When I was diagnosed (at 20 yo) I started on Adderall XR and my psychiatrist essentially took a “keep upping the dose until you feel side effects” approach, even though I still saw some benefits at a lower dose. I’m currently unmedicated and am somewhat hesitant to restart, but feel I could see some benefit and better stability with the help of medication.

How much would a 30 day supply of Vyvanse (30mg) cost me after insurance? I know this is going to vary by plan but I'm still curious as to know how expensive of a medication this is.

My pharmacy informed me that the insurance will not cover without authorization from the psych. My psych was wary about this & instead suggested Ritalin during my session. He mentioned that insurance companies want us to first try Ritalin because they are generally cheaper. How much truth is there to this? Thanks!
