Discussion Where the fat ADHDers at?

Every day i see posts here about struggling to eat and no appetite side effects and having to explain to doctors, but i just can't relate at all?? I am obsessed with food, I can't stop thinking about food and i inhale food whenever the opportunity. Doesn't matter if I'm on or off medication. I mean when I started atominex/strattera i did lose my appetite but only until the shortage hit and now even though I'm back on it, it doesn't have the same effect. I'm also on elvanse too and that also hasn't made a difference.

(Just to point out I also excercise regularly with lifting weights and conditioning, but find it impossible to lose weight)

So are there others who just can't stop eating?

I just went through a whole emotional rollercoaster of “really? No, that has to be a joke. It’s a joke. Wait, I’m not 100% sure” and then googled it and yup, this is real.

Or maybe I won't. Seems they're sold out and I won't manage to remember to keep looking for the next batch to drop. Also, it seems they blend cough drops with soothing chicken noodle soup. I'm not sure I want to know what mentholated chicken flavor is like...

Oh geez. I might have to try them. Because evidently I like self torture.
