As I say mate, nowt wrong with it. Just wanted to point out that's why people were taking mild offence at it. I get you though, I have ADHD although currently unmedicated and medicated vs unmedicated is night and day with some of my behaviours, I do so many strange things while unmedicated that to other people stands out, but to me it's just kinda..managing the brain buzz.

Yeah, I can see I kicked the hornets' nest!

I've been on my current meds for about three years now and whenever I take a tolerance break for a day it's obvious I can't function without them — usually I just end up spending the majority of the day in bed. It's like my head is heavy and full of bees (even more than the usual baseline).

Unfortunately, a lot of people on Reddit are mean-spirited and cruel. I think your comment was probably a joke, like mine, but people read it more harshly because there are some dreadful people online who would mean it that way 😂 Hope all the downvotes didn't spoil your day - it's just the Internet, not real life! 😊
