It’s times like this, when I just feel like I can’t cope with everyday life and my emotions get the best of me, when I think I do feel like I don’t deserve to be treated well.
Cassie's journey through the rocky terrain of Adderall reduction is both heartwarming and enlightening. In this episode of 'ADHD and Me', she opens up about the challenges and small victories she encounters as she tries to cut down on her medication. Starting the day with a lower dosage than usual, Cassie finds herself grappling with productivity and self-judgment.
But it's not just the medication that's a hurdle; an argument with her mom throws her off balance, impacting her self-esteem and mental well-being. Despite these setbacks, Cassie remains hopeful and shares valuable insights into coping mechanisms like DBT therapy and nutritional supplements. Her story underscores the importance of self-compassion and patience, especially when dealing with addiction and mental health issues. This episode is a must-listen for anyone facing similar struggles or supporting someone who is.
