I was diagnosed at 36 (2 years ago), unmedicated so far, too many antidepressants to be taking add meds, hopefully changing it this fall. Good luck to all of you

    Hey! Thanks, that was a very wholesome read. I usually just lurked around reddit but lemmy is lemmy :)

    I think the brand name is Concerta/Ritalin and apparently it’s been connected to heart failure. And obviously has dependency concerns but… Yeah I’m probably worrying too much.

    I don’t drink alcohol at all or smoke anything, but I do take too much caffeine. I’ll start to reduce it for myself but also because my shrink said that, while it’s not absolutely necessary, I should try to cut back.

    Maybe I’m confusing fear with excitement. :)
