Welcome back to Off My Meds! This is my final solo episode for Mental Health May — a little late, but in true ADHD fashion, we’re embracing the chaos.
In this episode, I’m getting real about my experience with ADHD medication:
💊 Why I started stimulants
🚫 Why I went off them
🌿 The supplements I tried instead
🔁 How I’m navigating going back on meds
And all the messy, emotional, and eye-opening lessons in between.
Whether you're newly diagnosed or rethinking your treatment plan, I hope my story can help you feel a little less alone. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey, and what worked for me might not work for you — but maybe it’ll give you a starting point or a new question to ask.
✨ If you’ve ever asked yourself “Do I really need meds?” or “Is there a more natural route?” — this one’s for you.
📍 NOTE: I’m not a doctor — just a girl with a mic, some strong opinions, and a lot of trial-and-error. Please talk to a licensed professional before starting or stopping any medication.
🧩 Got ADHD? Or think you might? Check out my past episodes where I dive into diagnosis, burnout, executive dysfunction, rejection sensitivity, and the everyday rollercoaster of being neurodivergent.
👇 Drop your experience in the comments. I’d love to hear how you’re navigating your own meds journey.
