2nd: Padme happily responding, “I’m excited to catch up on all of these neglected responsibilities.”
3rd: Anakin with a sinister look saying nothing.
4th: Padme with a troubled expression, saying, “We’re going to focus on responsibilities, right?”
Fuck, it is like that?
I was once in a hyper rush on some other medication and did random shit I didnt need to do.
I think so. This is my first time being medicated as an adult, and I’ve had the same experience as OP. I have a new ability to focus but still need to learn how to use it like everyone else.
Yay! May depend on the medication. Some also just reduce the stuff around you, so you arent distracted as much
Nope, time to play Animal Crossing obsessively until my medication wears off.

That used to happen to me. Med switch addressed that.
How so? What was the change and how did it affect you?
Tried methylphenidate and it was like redlining an engine while in neutral. Switching to the Adderall family gave me useful energy I could direct. Stimulants are no longer worth the side effects for me, but they worked for several years.
