Hey all,
I have a rare sleep condition and recently was prescribed Adderall to help me function during the day. It's been incredible for that and a total life changer. But I think I underestimated it's impact on my appetite.
My appetite was low-ish before, but I was still able to get a solid gain by eating extra and stuffing from time to time. But now my appetite is like nonexistent. It's doubled the effort it takes to eat past the point of fullness and decreased the desire to eat at all.
I'm starting to feel hopeless against it and don't know what to do. Forcing myself to eat when I'm not hungry results in nausea and stomach pain. But I'm desperate not to lose weight. I'm at a loss with this...
Any insight or advice would be super helpful right now ðŸ˜
I don't really have any advice but I do sympathize with your situation. The medication i take for diabetes has the same effect. It's very effective for controlling my blood sugars, but the side effect is frustrating. I suppose one thought I've had is to eat smaller amounts more often to counteract the effect, but that isn't always practical. Hope you find a good solution.
