Ok but deadass I had a dream last night that I was late for school so I scared myself awake (anyone else just like wake themselves up in a panic because you think you’re late for something?) at like 3 am and then I was like “oh chill still have 3 hours till I gotta be awake for school” when I haven’t woken up for school at 6 am in 4 years cause I’m a senior in college and also it’s summer :D
Once I woke up at 7pm and thought it was 7am… I only noticed my mistake when I was on my way to “work” and noticed the abundance of people chilling outside enjoying the evening sun.
I work Graveyard shift so I 😂totally understand because I too did the same thing which is why now my cell phone has military time to avoid any confusion if I were to wake up in the evening assuming it’s daylight
Or... waking up late on saturday morning and thinking it is actually friday morning and "realizing" you are late to work only to be relieved that you don't work saturdays and it is in fact, a saturday and not a friday.
Orange juice/grapefruit juice counteracts the absorption, not the meds itself. So you gotta drink it pretty quick, like within the first half hour ideally but will still work for a while after. But it actually really works!
Yup. Vitamin C/Ascorbic Acid/Citric Acid inhibits absorption of amphetamines and actively pulls them out of your system even after they've been absorbed. All acids inhibit uptake to a minor degree, but vitamin C inhibits it significantly and also removes it after absorption.
Yea dude it’s happened on multiple occasions were in the morning I assume I’m going to have a lazy day, don’t take my meds, then I make plans and do take my meds thinking it’ll be fine since it’ll be a while till I’m in bed… it isn’t really wish I knew this
For context, I have to get up at 5 am or earlier so I have enough time to get ready for the bus. The bus comes at 6:20, and I need at least an hour to get ready. So anyway, I was on my bed watching shorts after school. I have to get up really early and can almost never fall asleep on the bus, so I ended up taking an accidental nap. (Starting between 3 and 4:30 pm) At some point my parents made plans and didn't tell me, so my mom came in and woke me up (6:00 pm). When she did, she decided to say "good morning" and then leave. I too have a west facing window, and so I could see the sunset. However, I just got woken up at 6 and was immediately told good morning, so I'm thinking I'm late for the bus. Needless to say only my dad is allowed to wake me up in the afternoons anymore.
Your comment made me laugh so much. I relate to it so much especially since I work night shift, and since we work night shift we say good night in the morning because we are going to sleep but this one particular day I was off and when someone said goodnight it totally threw me off.
I'm jealous that you only need that little amount of time to get ready for the bus. I would need at least another hour to find things I didn't know were lost, to then clean out the drawer that I found somethings in and then try to find something to wear because the blouse I thought was clean, wasn't.......
I got ready for work, thinking it was 8 AM. Drank my coffee, got myself ready and dressed for work...then wondered why it was pitch black outside. Took me a minute, then I understood the puzzled looks from my pups. LOL And yes, I also have changed to a 24 hour format, for that reason. So glad I'm not the only one!
I had a nap after work years ago. I woke up thinking it was 7am and I was supposed to be at work at 5.30am. I called work and apologised profusely. Then I couldn't find my uniform.

i don’t know about OJ but grapefruit juice iirc actually increases the bioavailability of adderall and intensifies the effects of the drug, so be careful w citrus! 😅
Yeah, it's important that you don't drink OJ (or ANY juice high in citric acid) in the morning if you want your meds to work. In fact, it's recommended that you avoid ALL acidic foods and drinks an hour before and after taking stimulant medication for ADHD.

It doesn't. She's wrong in this. Ascorbic acid (vitamin-C) may counteract Ritalin substantially, but no so much other types/brands of stimulants, especially not Vyvanse. Don't take it from me, though. Always take your medication advice from your doctor and farmacist, they're liable if they're wrong, I'm not. Not drinking orange juice with your medication, to be on the safe side, should of course be fine (if the medication is safe for you). Unless you have already titrated your dosage based on a habit of drinking orange juice.
I’m even a nurse and didn’t realize about the OJ and Vyvanse~I take Adderall (even though I hate it) but I haven’t tried that one yet. I do know with many other medications that are affected by grapefruit juice aren’t affected by orange juice.

So, I check my phone and sure enough it’s 12:45 AM. Hung up my clothes, went to sleep and did it all again in the morning.

I always take my meds after breakfast, taking them with my leftover milk. I made the mistake of eating cereal for dinner and out of force of habit and took my meds and then relized what I did and googled if I was gonna die. I’m not gonna die, just no sleep
I’m literally watching this at 2am because passed out from 🌲🍃🔥 at like 8 and woke up at 12am. Now I’m binging all her content and I’ve never felt more validated and called out at the same time😅
Okay first off I had my finger down since she started explaining and never raised it back up-second personally I use military time because it’s a lot more soothing and comprehensible to my brain😭
Three days ago I woke up at 11:00 pm thinking it was 7:00 am, despite it being pitch black outside and multiple clocks telling me it wasn't. I then checked the time while eating breakfast and, instead of thinking that I just fell asleep for a little bit during a nap that I forgot about at that moment, I assumed I slept in and started freaking out. It took me a couple of minutes, but I did eventually realize. This is not the first time it's happened 😅
It has happened to me more than a few times that I confused night and day. How did you not realize it was getting darker though? That’s always how I realize it.
@@Rattlsnke it was summertime and 7pm looks the same as 7am on the east coast. Plus I was woken up by a slamming door mid rem cycle so I was basically half drunk. Rushed to get dressed and ran out the door. I did think it was weird there was no traffic but thought I just got lucky 😂
I was just diagnosed with ADHD. i was just watching your vids and it was like a light went off. All the simptoms matched perfectly. I started crying,i thought i was just doing everything wrong in my life( forgetfulness and everything) It ruined so many relationships. Now I realize what was actually going on. Thank you SO much ❤
I changed my clock to army time because I also frequently woke up at night, thinking it was early in the morning. But there are still times where I misread the clock, like 20:30 for 2:30 and I start to panic and think that I lost the time to cram multiple assignments in one night, which is my fault to begin with but now there's literally no chance of me passing all of them in time :"D
MY HEART DROPPED THE SECOND YOU SAID VIAVANCE! For anyone else, Adderal is more common amd lasts about 6 hours, viavance lasts 12 WHOLE HOURS! and both are super strong stimulants
Adderall is anphetamine, it accelerates everything accelerable. Vyvanse, even though it is like a cousin of anphetamine, it doesn't have the same side effects, like pumping your heart out of you.
This 💀accept I don’t have ADHD medication so I just end up crying cause I can’t fall asleep and then only being able to sleep the next day around noon and then getting really confused.
Thank you for sharing and educating others about ADHD! I have ADHD and you are helping me better understand myself and how to explain my ADHD to others. Keep up the great work!
This is why my phone doesn't have 12 hour clock. I get very confused. Also the vibes are real. Slept from 4 to 8 and I immediately assumed it was morning. I didn't have my pills on me. I was very confused for a solid 20 minutes
This is why I started using 24 hour time- I woke up around 8-9pm once and panicked thinking I was late to school only to realize when I got upstairs that everyone was home and chill and the sun was down
You finally get to sleep and wake up 12 hours later during a nightmare in which you are back in Army Basic Training again and have overslept and are late for morning rollcall.
This comment made me understand why I had the same nightmare for years, dreaming I wasn't in time with my studying for an exam, or always missed the bus or train or airplane trying to get somewhere ..
Honestly mentally it doesn’t really do much, it does make you lose ur appetite tho. So basically even if ur hungry u don’t wanna eat. Also as a stimulant it just keeps you up but normally it isn’t a problem b/c you take it in the day. Tbh only really noticeable thing is just you don’t wanna eat. Well that and you can focus better, but tbh you don’t really feel different on and off cuz you just pay attention better and that’s more of like a passive thing.
Yea but if you count hunger as physical I hardly notice anything. It’s more like I notice when I’m not on it cuz I can’t pay attention to like school and you get jittery. So yea the things you only notice when ur not on it only happens in times you normally take it or need it. Like in class if im not on It I can realize I forgot to take it and it’s hard to sit still and pay attention. Emotionally it doesn’t do anything directly but for me it’s more of a byproduct. Like getting a little agitated when I can’t move around in class, or jsut how you are when ur hungry, so basically like I said it’s really nothing direct for me.
The best part is that it’s so relatable yet for all of us it would be so unique and we could justify every detail of why we did what we did and yet no one else will understand it
xD My clocks are in 24 hour time because two of my jobs have used it for whatever reason and I honestly prefer it so much. Makes is SO much easier to understand WHEN it is.
I’ve lost 12 hour clock privileges before. But then my concept of time changed. There was no longer a 4:00pm for me. Only 16:00 (random example). I lost the ability to talk about time with 12ers. Which was everyone in my life. I’m just not good with anything related to time.
I know exactly what that feels like. Ugh just thinking about it makes me feel so annoyed, or if you take your adderall slightly to late and you end up staying up all night, adhd is the worst.
Random way to learn army time, whatever time it is, we'll use 18:00, just take 12 from it and you know what time it is. 18 - 12 = 6, so its 6PM, or 1800.
@@jonahp03 Let's get one thing straight - understanding and relating to symptoms is one thing, but when it comes to diagnosing ADHD, that's a job for the professionals. It's about taking charge of your health, not leaving it to chance with a self-diagnosis. So, step up, take control, and consult a healthcare professional. That's how you lead your health journey. Be decisive, be strong, get a professional opinion.
@@weightelk So @jonahp03 finds the videos helpful and suddenly they're in the self-diagnosis hot seat? Come on, they practically waved a disclaimer saying, "never been diagnosed with anything."

It's almost like you don't need a medical degree to appreciate good advice or feel seen by a video. Let's not leap to conclusions; not everyone's out here playing armchair psychiatrist. Some folks are just enjoying the show and picking up a few good tips along the way.
At first I thought you were going to say how you actually slept til like 5am or something and I was like "Fuuuck, I wish! I could never.. " and then I slowly just started relating to your story so hard.... Lol
Sometimes I look at my phone for the time and i don’t remember what I looked at so I re look and think its 12am but notice it’s really bright out, so i check again and notice it’s 12pm..(this happens to me everyday adhd sucks sometimes 💀)
No why did I do this so often during school days😂I literally ran downstairs to yell at my mom that I was late at like 830 9 o’clock 😂she has never gave me a more confusing look before 😭
Omg i needed you and these videos to exist more than anything right now. I forget how many i watched, but i remember the button is in a red envelope and feel a little less misunderstood
I work at a hospital and it is SO NICE to work on army time. Rarely confused about when a procedure will be taking place, except that the doc's always change the times up xD
I am currently unemployed. I'm enjoying not working but having 0 schedule and ADHD makes tings interesting. There are days were I have to look at my computer to actually see what day it is. One thing that may help with the pill management is getting one of those boxes with slots for pills for each day of the week and then looking at calendar/computer before you take them. This tool helps me consistently take my meds. I refill the box every Sunday.
Hahahaha I am in the exact same situation currently but I did NOT know that orange juice and certain other foods and beverages can counteract ADHD medication. I’m actually not on Vyvanse, (as it and every other ADHD medication on the market did not work for me) but rather amphetamine/dextroamphetamine. Apparently it has the same counteracting effects from those same foods/beverages. So once again, THANK YOU as always for these little informative shorts you do. No matter how unique to yourself these or other symptoms may seem to be, it always helps others to know they’re not alone

@alexvsp #stopanimaltesting #stoptoxicmel #flop If you brush your teeth before eating, then the toothpaste helps protect your teeth. If you brush after, any acids you may have eaten that have softened your enamel will get scraped away from the toothbrush
@@leftysheppeybae the hashtags what 😭
@@sunnythemartian it's the guys username. My phone likes to change usernames into normal text for whatever reason 😂
@@leftysheppey i regularly brush my teeth after eating since it gets any food and bad breath from my mouth, thank you for the information.
I always take my meds after breakfast, taking them with my leftover milk. I made the mistake of eating cereal for dinner and out of force of habit and took my meds and then relized what I did and googled if I was gonna die. I’m not gonna die, just no sleep
haha
My daughter has ADHD, this is very helpful!
I’m literally watching this at 2am because passed out from 🌲🍃🔥 at like 8 and woke up at 12am. Now I’m binging all her content and I’ve never felt more validated and called out at the same time😅
don’t you hate it when you pass out from a tree dropping leaves on you and catching on fire? that’s what you meant right? 😅
@@wizewunz I’m havi a tree drop on me right now
Okay first off I had my finger down since she started explaining and never raised it back up-second personally I use military time because it’s a lot more soothing and comprehensible to my brain😭
i have to count on my fingers sometimes-
As someone with ADHD, i can somewhat relate. But it’s hard to process so many words in one sentence😂
Yeah I have adhd also and I had to watch this three times this wa away top fan for me
I understood every word and forgot to keep scrolling and just watched it 4 times
Lol she’s got orange juice and bad at nap time. 😅
That’s what the crack pills do to ya lol
Neurodivergence crew checking in, I had to watch it 5 times to follow the story line 🤣
You’re actually a comedic genius like actually I’m so impressed by your sense of humor
Three days ago I woke up at 11:00 pm thinking it was 7:00 am, despite it being pitch black outside and multiple clocks telling me it wasn't. I then checked the time while eating breakfast and, instead of thinking that I just fell asleep for a little bit during a nap that I forgot about at that moment, I assumed I slept in and started freaking out. It took me a couple of minutes, but I did eventually realize. This is not the first time it's happened 😅
Sammme 😂
You don’t need a 24 hour clock, you need a clock that says things like,*
*2nd hour of the evening*
FR
I was relating to everything until the “adhd pill” part. Then I went back to relating during the “army time” part lol
Yeahh
I always forgot to take my medicine anyway soooo
Woke up thinking I was an hour late for work and didn't realize it was 7pm not 7am until I got to the job lol
It has happened to me more than a few times that I confused night and day. How did you not realize it was getting darker though? That’s always how I realize it.
@@Rattlsnke it was summertime and 7pm looks the same as 7am on the east coast. Plus I was woken up by a slamming door mid rem cycle so I was basically half drunk. Rushed to get dressed and ran out the door. I did think it was weird there was no traffic but thought I just got lucky 😂
@@lm2720 Lmao. I gotcha.
I can relate to over-sleeping when I take a nap, or even falling asleep with the lights on when I only wanted to lie down for an hour.
I was just diagnosed with ADHD. i was just watching your vids and it was like a light went off. All the simptoms matched perfectly. I started crying,i thought i was just doing everything wrong in my life( forgetfulness and everything) It ruined so many relationships. Now I realize what was actually going on. Thank you SO much ❤
my clock is in armytime- it's actually quite helpful when you get past the "only know 00:00-14:00" thing
Omg my ipads clock is in armytime too lol 😆
Bro, literally the reason I use 24 hour time, its alot easier, for me it is anyways
0-14? 🤔
I changed my clock to army time because I also frequently woke up at night, thinking it was early in the morning. But there are still times where I misread the clock, like 20:30 for 2:30 and I start to panic and think that I lost the time to cram multiple assignments in one night, which is my fault to begin with but now there's literally no chance of me passing all of them in time :"D
Other than i don't take medication this is exactly why i use a 24 clock. It just lets me keep track of the days easier.
Lord i had something similar. Never again. Took the 9h pills..
oh god 😟how long were you awake for?
MY HEART DROPPED THE SECOND YOU SAID VIAVANCE! For anyone else, Adderal is more common amd lasts about 6 hours, viavance lasts 12 WHOLE HOURS! and both are super strong stimulants
Same!
*Vyvanse
Adderall is anphetamine, it accelerates everything accelerable. Vyvanse, even though it is like a cousin of anphetamine, it doesn't have the same side effects, like pumping your heart out of you.
Well- it's meth😂😂
Never tried vivance but adderall just makes me want to go to sleep.
This 💀accept I don’t have ADHD medication so I just end up crying cause I can’t fall asleep and then only being able to sleep the next day around noon and then getting really confused.
Yesss it's rough being this way
Bro fr tho you need either marijuana or a sleep medication that is actually prescribed
This drug is literally one carbon molecule away from coke. Crazy how often it's proscribed
@@jeremylucss4019 do you know what also has a difference of just one carbon? CO2 and O2, it's almost like one carbon can make a huge difference
@@casperbergstrom1206 I mean idk about vyvanse but adderall and meth are extremely similar.
Thank you for sharing and educating others about ADHD! I have ADHD and you are helping me better understand myself and how to explain my ADHD to others. Keep up the great work!
"LOL!!"
"LMAOOO-"
"Same girl- oh wait I mean uh.. no..."
This is why my phone doesn't have 12 hour clock. I get very confused. Also the vibes are real. Slept from 4 to 8 and I immediately assumed it was morning. I didn't have my pills on me. I was very confused for a solid 20 minutes
My phone tells me whether it's AM or PM- 💀💀
I can't take day time naps. I wake up in a full panic because I was sleeping during the day
Yep. Grapefruit juice works very well against our meds too.
This is why I started using 24 hour time- I woke up around 8-9pm once and panicked thinking I was late to school only to realize when I got upstairs that everyone was home and chill and the sun was down
You finally get to sleep and wake up 12 hours later during a nightmare in which you are back in Army Basic Training again and have overslept and are late for morning rollcall.
On the upside, that adrenaline shot will _definitely_ help you focus 😅
This comment made me understand why I had the same nightmare for years, dreaming I wasn't in time with my studying for an exam, or always missed the bus or train or airplane trying to get somewhere ..
Could you do a video on medication? Like your opinion on the before and after? 😅💚🥳
Vyvanse?
Honestly mentally it doesn’t really do much, it does make you lose ur appetite tho. So basically even if ur hungry u don’t wanna eat. Also as a stimulant it just keeps you up but normally it isn’t a problem b/c you take it in the day. Tbh only really noticeable thing is just you don’t wanna eat. Well that and you can focus better, but tbh you don’t really feel different on and off cuz you just pay attention better and that’s more of like a passive thing.
Yea but if you count hunger as physical I hardly notice anything. It’s more like I notice when I’m not on it cuz I can’t pay attention to like school and you get jittery. So yea the things you only notice when ur not on it only happens in times you normally take it or need it. Like in class if im not on It I can realize I forgot to take it and it’s hard to sit still and pay attention. Emotionally it doesn’t do anything directly but for me it’s more of a byproduct. Like getting a little agitated when I can’t move around in class, or jsut how you are when ur hungry, so basically like I said it’s really nothing direct for me.
Yea to sum it up it’s Ight lmao
@@ledihnquan thank you , I really appreciate your input and experience 🔥💚🥳
I have had this exact experience. Its terrifying... And strangly motivating.
i have adhd and i take naps usually once a week around 5 and i always wake up around 7pm thinking its 6am. my mom literally always bullies me ab it😭
Why is this so specific,and why do i relate to this
I woke up at 5 pm once, and I thought my parents were playing Salsa music at 5 IN THE MORNING 😂
Switching over to 24 hour clock is so real and honesty so helpful.
lol idk why people saying army time always makes me laugh, like i know its just how people are brought up but 🤣
Australian here. Never heard it called army time. I call it European time.
Facts. This is one of the reasons I've been on 24 hour time for almost a decade, of not longer
I don’t have adhd pills, but aside from that, yes that’s happened to me before- 💀
The best part is that it’s so relatable yet for all of us it would be so unique and we could justify every detail of why we did what we did and yet no one else will understand it
xD My clocks are in 24 hour time because two of my jobs have used it for whatever reason and I honestly prefer it so much. Makes is SO much easier to understand WHEN it is.
I’ve lost 12 hour clock privileges before.
But then my concept of time changed. There was no longer a 4:00pm for me. Only 16:00 (random example). I lost the ability to talk about time with 12ers. Which was everyone in my life.
I’m just not good with anything related to time.
@@d.s.4952 xD Right? Time is a pain!!
Girl this is why I keep that OJ concentrate (the frozen can) on hand. Instant OJ whenever you need it
I can see the pain in your eyes 😭 i feel u girl
Thankyou for making me laugh at my own ADHD. I've been struggling so hard lately
I know exactly what that feels like. Ugh just thinking about it makes me feel so annoyed, or if you take your adderall slightly to late and you end up staying up all night, adhd is the worst.
Random way to learn army time, whatever time it is, we'll use 18:00, just take 12 from it and you know what time it is. 18 - 12 = 6, so its 6PM, or 1800.
I forgot she was doing a fingers down challenge. Like, immediately. Didn’t even realize until the second round.
I relate to all your videos so much! I’ve never been diagnosed with anything but your videos are very helpful. And you’re beautiful
Because all humans experience these things. Don't self diagnose
@@weightelk Did I say I was self diagnosing GTFO
@@weightelk how is this person self diagnosing
@@jonahp03 Let's get one thing straight - understanding and relating to symptoms is one thing, but when it comes to diagnosing ADHD, that's a job for the professionals. It's about taking charge of your health, not leaving it to chance with a self-diagnosis. So, step up, take control, and consult a healthcare professional. That's how you lead your health journey. Be decisive, be strong, get a professional opinion.
@@weightelk So @jonahp03 finds the videos helpful and suddenly they're in the self-diagnosis hot seat? Come on, they practically waved a disclaimer saying, "never been diagnosed with anything." Maybe they just like the videos. Ever thought that content can just be... helpful? Shocking, I know. It's almost like you don't need a medical degree to appreciate good advice or feel seen by a video. Let's not leap to conclusions; not everyone's out here playing armchair psychiatrist. Some folks are just enjoying the show and picking up a few good tips along the way.
🤣🤣🤣 your videos are so perfect... also I can't imagine taking Vyvanse at 9pm omg 😆
I’ve done it before it sucks
"Army time", or as anyone outside of the US calls it, "time"
At first I thought you were going to say how you actually slept til like 5am or something and I was like "Fuuuck, I wish! I could never.. " and then I slowly just started relating to your story so hard.... Lol
Bahahaha!!!!! Saaaaaaameeeeeeee!!!!! I swear this channel is so good at making me feel both seen and attacked at the same time! 😂
You can see her swollowing that sadness as the end to stay calm. Same.
Me holding my hand up for literally 10 seconds: 🖐️🖐️🖐️
“Oh wait this is oddly specific” but yeah I can see myself doing that lol 😂
😂😂 same. I was left hanging waiting for the next finger. 🫤
I always forget to take my medication lol😭
I’ve accidentally taken my vyvanse after 12pm and cried because I knew I wouldn’t get any sleep that night. This is soooo relatable!!! 😂😢
This is me and my pain
Pathetic. Get help that isn’t destroying your dna.
Something about this just feels *RELATABLE*
Girl I feel you on that 😂😂
It’s so specific yet relatable, I have found that my schedule gets very screwed up if I take my medicine at a different time than usual
Omg I use Vivanse too! 35 milligrams to be exact
Vyvanse. Yes.
mine is 30mg lol
Just so you know OJ will not counteract drugs you’ve already taken.
You’re videos are so relatable and funny, you are a gift from God and he has great plans for you, god bless ❤
One of the many reasons I’m addicted to OJ
I could relate-
Despite people telling me it's still the afternoon and the sun is setting I still proceed with my morning routine to head to school😭
Sometimes I look at my phone for the time and i don’t remember what I looked at so I re look and think its 12am but notice it’s really bright out, so i check again and notice it’s 12pm..(this happens to me everyday adhd sucks sometimes 💀)
Military time was a total game changer.
Stuck with it even after getting out for these types of reasons
The fact that i have to watch this 3 times to understand 💀
Omg I swear this is me having ADHD is so fun totally- 😭🤚
Are you calling our serious disorder fun?
@@NewfoundMapping no , I have ADHD as well- I was saying this video is relatable since I also have ADHD-
@@chickin19898 oh my bad. I thought you were calling ADHD fun to have. Which it isn’t sadly
No why did I do this so often during school days😂I literally ran downstairs to yell at my mom that I was late at like 830 9 o’clock 😂she has never gave me a more confusing look before 😭
I’ve done this too. You are in good company.
👇😔 u r so valid and relatable. my signature move is taking a quick 5pm nap and waking up at 9am the next morning a half hour late for school
“Put a finger down if………..2 thousand years later” xD
(This is a joke if you are easily offended keep scrolling)
Omg i needed you and these videos to exist more than anything right now. I forget how many i watched, but i remember the button is in a red envelope and feel a little less misunderstood
The more I am listening to this. The more I think I have this. I just did this.
24-hour clocks. Life saver!
before i was diagnosed back in high-school i remember getting ready for school AT 6PM😂😂on a weekend!!!
I work at a hospital and it is SO NICE to work on army time. Rarely confused about when a procedure will be taking place, except that the doc's always change the times up xD
I am currently unemployed. I'm enjoying not working but having 0 schedule and ADHD makes tings interesting. There are days were I have to look at my computer to actually see what day it is.
One thing that may help with the pill management is getting one of those boxes with slots for pills for each day of the week and then looking at calendar/computer before you take them. This tool helps me consistently take my meds. I refill the box every Sunday.
Yup. An experience like this made me change all my clocks to 24h years ago
Your reels are the best ! cheers from Brazil
Hahahaha I am in the exact same situation currently but I did NOT know that orange juice and certain other foods and beverages can counteract ADHD medication.
I’m actually not on Vyvanse, (as it and every other ADHD medication on the market did not work for me) but rather amphetamine/dextroamphetamine. Apparently it has the same counteracting effects from those same foods/beverages.
So once again, THANK YOU as always for these little informative shorts you do. No matter how unique to yourself these or other symptoms may seem to be, it always helps others to know they’re not alone
That was a good speech, lol! But I have almost done that before. Woke up all afraid that I slept in, thinking that I was going to be late for work.
