my only recommendation would be to let anyone who might be affected by this know. Like if your adhd impacts your work or education let your professors know

Physical withdrawals were the worst for me. Just be mindful of your mood and attitude, and it becomes a little easier. Work towards getting your refill. Godspeed 💙
