Till the last minute of energy

I started my new ADD med this morning. Like any medication that affects brain functions, the first dose will make me somewhat high. It was a really funny tutoring session that much I can say. I still learned, and made my tutor proud showing that even impaired, I understand. More so, I showed him a tiny little tactic for a type of operation to reduce a matrix that I learned from another tutor. He couldn’t be happier to see that I master what I do well enough to teach it.

I went on to eating lunch quickly before joining my management of depression symptoms workshop. From there, I had to run a few errands, and cooked for the days to come. With the remainder of my energy, I did a bit more homework before finally feeling tired. I took my medication at 6 am, and I’m now ready to join Morpheus in dreamland.

So far, I’m really enjoying this new medication. I’ve been calm, and productiveall day. I’m feeling enough fatigue to quickly fall a sleep, and sense I will stat asleep too. If I found the right medication for me this will open brand new possibilities for my future. I’m excited to see how it goes in the weeks to come. I cross my fingers it’s the one treatment that will give my academic freedom.
