Medication

Does anyone else feel like their meds aren’t medicating? It’s like they all of the sudden stopped working. Any ideas why? Or how to make them useful again? I suffer from really debilitating time blindness and the meds used to help keep me on track…along with most everything else.

You you’re feeling stressed or depressed your meds can stop working. So think about if the symptoms you’re feeling could be symptoms of something else. Otherwise go see your doc😋

If you started any new medications or supplements or are super stressed, these are just a couple of reasons they could not be working as well. Also, depending on how long you’ve been on them and what you take, tolerance is definitely a thing. Agree that it deserves a visit and discussion with your doc!

this happens to me a lot maybe it’s the wrong med/ wrong strength or because you’re body has really adjusted to it so you don’t feel it as much as it did when you first started. For me personally, they’re still working but i feel like they’re not; but it’s my motivation / relying solely on meds to keep me on track. You could try to consult with your doctor or try remembering they are but your body is used to them, now it’s time to try and do these things without solely thinking a medication is the thing that’s doing it :)

Hello! I had the same issue when I couldn’t find my medication on the market and had to change it for a different one. It felt like I was experiencing all the side effects but none of the positive ones 😅 maybe you can talk to your doctor and ask for an upgrade in dosage or maybe even consider a different medication. I hope you feel better soon 💪🏻

Not sure which med you’re on, but taking a day or two off (since it’s not helping anyway) can make it more effective again, at least for amphetamine-type meds.
