I got my meds today, concerta 36 mg today and i feel like i am sitting for an exam. Mild trembles, hyper-aware and inability to sit still. Like a weaker version of caffeine for me.
From what i have seen online, caffeine, for alot of adhd ppl, works similarly to adhd meds, helping them focus. For me, it worsens my adhd, making me hyperactivity, hyper-aware and very trembles. I sort of addicted to it for 2 months or so. Drinking 4 to 5 cups a day.
Thinking about it now, this could be caffeine withdrawal rather than the meds. Either way, has anyone had similar experience?
But I am worried about caffeine withdrawnls and if that miss with the medication. Maybe I should have sorted my addiction first before starting meds?
I was gonna wait regardless thought and haven’t had coffee for 3 days now.
No need to worry. The meds will alleviate your need for caffeine.
It take a little time to figure out what works for you.
After two weeks things are starting to balance out.
Find some other warm tasty drink to replace your coffee.
Good luck.
