I stumbled on this comic from Extra Fabulous Comics today.

It really did feel like gaining a super power when I started my meds.

These comments made me want to actually get diagnosed and medicated. Though I fear losing some of the fun in life

Dont worry the meds help but sometimes they dont so you're still fucked 👌

Most of the meds have a 4 hour half-life. You'll get a day or 2 of recoil, worst case, but you don't have to be medicated the whole time.

For me the fun is not only still there but the crushing feeling of self loathing from being unable to finish anything is gone because I can actually finish things now.

It's amazing.

Luckily for me I got a good one from the start, one of my friends had to try 4 different meds before they got the right one for them.
