    And to make matters worse there’s some sketchy shit going on with reformulation to reduce euphoria 🙄 I’m so mad that I started taking medication because it changed my life and now I’m unstable due to this shit.

      Yeah, the reformulation cut the effectiveness nearly in half for me. I went from stable on the same script for 2 years to suddenly being emotionally agitated all the time, constant headaches, and 0 symptom relief. It took 8 months to figure out, but my provider and I finally landed on using a different manufacturer and nearly double the dose of what i had before to almost get me back to my original stable state.

      I didn’t know about the reformulation thing — is it Adderall that’s affected? I’m not personally on Adderall, but I like to be aware of the overall landscape of ADHD meds due to having many friends with ADHD (and also being a nerd)

        If i recall, and someone correct me if im wrong, back in August the ratio of active ingredient allowed to filler allowed went from 2:1 to 1:1 for adderall.
