In this episode of Glitchy Switch, I’m back after a quiet spell — my first episode since November 2024 — and I’m exploring a question so many newly diagnosed adults ask: “Should I go onto ADHD medication?”
I share why I didn’t start ADHD meds straight after diagnosis, what shifted during a major job change, and what it was actually like taking the plunge of stimulant medication.
In this episode:
What’s been going on since the last series.
The factors that influenced my decision to medicate my adult ADHD.
Why the thought of starting medication makes some people uneasy.
A level set on methylphenidate (the medication I take) in plain terms, and the options I considered.
What it felt like contemplating my first dose.
