Does anyone else lose their appetite on ADHD meds?
Okay besties… let’s talk ADHD meds. I’ve been on Adderall, and while it’s been life changing for my ADHD, it definitely comes with side effects. For me, the biggest ones are a suppressed appetite (sometimes I forget to eat), a higher heart rate, and feeling a little too wired/awake at times. But
