@rgb_leds_are_love most ADHD medicines do not cause weight gain. If anything, maybe some weight loss for many of them. should be fine.
@pharmachiatrist
Do you know if the meds do that by themselves, or do they do some voodoo like killing the sensations of hunger? Or something like that?
@rgb_leds_are_love yeah mostly they suppress appetite, as far as I know, though I suppose they may increase basal metabolism a bit too. not sure, honestly, about the specifics.
@pharmachiatrist thank you. That makes sense.
Yes. I got formally diagnosed.
