I find that I have absolutely no energy to do anything besides get high after work. I go to the gym, do like 1 pullup and I am fucking destroyed, and I’m not the most out of shape person in existence despite my job being a desk job (for the most part). I don’t go out, I have no friends partially because I moved to a new place 6 months ago.

Please no ‘you don’t’ or ‘welcome to life under kkkapitalism’, only false promises.

      Its probably not great for my anxiety either, but I take medication for schizophrenia that helps with that. If you often have anxiety it might be worth looking into a doctor or medication. From my own lived experience I know that things like paranoia have a major impact on your quality of life.

          Im sorry to hear that. I can only say that my medication did help me a great deal with my paranoia and I wouldnt wanna go back to not taking it. Just a warning my meds take the edge off but they feel like they sap you of creativity in a way and you kind of lack highs and lows. Like funny enough one good thing about my schizophrenia is that I could write MUCH better in my state of hyper awareness like you can taste colors but obviously I guess it was a bit much for me. Wish I could do it without meds.

      Pair with l-theanine to take the edge off. Won’t help the insomnia though so for mornings only.

      Is your ADHD medicated? If so you might try mixing up your formulations. I just got switched from focalin back to concerta even though my focus isn’t quite as good, the focalin comedown had me trucked in the morning. I couldn’t even brush my teeth.

      My executive function is a little worse now but I can actually move
