    Please listen to the huberman podcast on ADHD and medicating it. You will discover that you take an exceptionally high dose which is not likely to be necessary. Please consult another doctor.

    They should be ramping it up from a very low dose slowly and keep it at the lowest working dose four exactly the reasons you have set out.

      this was years and years ago, when docs ramped it up in the name of medical profits,… and I never really ended up needing then after a few years of “getting gud”

        Ya but thats honestly insane. Isnt the highest dose of Adderall like 50 or 60 mg?

        Why did you go along with that? They literally forced you to up-titrate to that level, nothing less was sufficient, like, ever?
