        I feel like I’m in that bucket, but it was deemed I did not have enough signs early in life for a diagnosis

      The worst part is that the medication is barely effective and you build a tolerance almost immediately. And then when it wears off it makes the problem even worse.

      I just want permanent relief. I am so done with always being burnt out.

        I’ve had success with medication but it took a long time to figure out a dosage that worked for me. Also helps to find a good therapist if you have access to insurance.

        Make sure to talk to your doctor, you can try different medication and there are extras you can add so you don’t crash as hard. Don’t give up, you can find the medication that works best for you.
