This comic is cute, but I don’t want people to set the wrong expectations for adhd medication. For everyone across the board, it doesn’t work like a stimulant, as in make you faster, but quiets you down and allows you to focus. But you may still be tired or depressed. In short, it’s not a magic pill and you should reflect on the affect it has on you. Some people can take their meds and go to sleep, that’s one way to tell how it affects you.
That’s not necessarily true. Myself, and several other people I know, have definitely experienced a boost from stimulants, just not in the same wired way neurotypical people get. Sometimes it feels like a weight off your shoulders that in a way almost feels stimulating. At the very least more talkative.
Meds will turn me into a furry? Ok i’m in.
Meds made me go from “I had confusing feelings about Tails and We’re Back: a Dinosaur Story when I was six” to “my ass is chock full of Bad Dragon dildoes”
The plural is just dildos
i have changed the plural, pray i do not alter it further.
Is Dan Quayle available to weigh in?
Dildoeoeoes
Me too!
Vyvanse ended up making the dog way bigger on some days, I’m on atomoxetine and that’s been way more manageable.
In case anyone has found themselves to be sensitive to stimulant medication, don’t be afraid to ask about trying non-stimulants 🙂
Non-stimulants? I am on extended release ritalin and it suuuuucks. Everything is the same as it used to be but now i feel like i am on speed for 5 minutes, an hour after i take it.
Everythings sucks 🥺
Wow brilliant, this is one of the best explanation for ADHD ever
I wish tbh, been diagnosed for 3 years and still haven’t found meds that work. I suppose that’s inevitably part of it, but it sucks to just not be able to do things because my brain doesn’t want to give me good chemicals.
Meds that I tried didn’t help me. Fuck me I guess 🙃
To be fair I have not tried any new meds in many years, so I’m sure there’s new ones I haven’t tried, but I couldn’t afford the appointments or medications anyway…
I’m at my third type of medication and still no difference. At least I’m not absolutely drained as on first one but yet to see a positive impact. Yes, I’m diagnosed.
Adhd meds turn you into a Furry confirmed (although, what you you already were one beforehand? Does it cancel out?)
Furry squared
the furrier equation
Furrier transfemation
Furrier transform
Mmmmmmm, furry TF, you say!
fuck that’s what i meant to write, i hate my brain
You’re just a very FOCUSED furry
I hope my kid gets to feel this way someday
If my kid ever feels like this, I am going to be angry, and have a LOT of questions. Mostly in a very pissed off tone.
…I don’t have kids, and the last time someone COULD HAVE potentially gotten pregnant from me and kept it secret would have been 2006. But I’m 99.9% sure I don’t have kids.
So if I found out I have a kid, I would be confuuuuuuused.
would you… lose your mind?
Steady on there, Genghis.
