The HEAT is on! (with me on Adderall)!!!


I can now do the things I say I "will do".

I can now do things (projects/meet goals/read directions!).

I am now me plus, PLUS since beginning Adderall for adult ADD...and the pressure is on!

Speaking of pressure, my actual blood pressure is up; usually it runs low (below the norm) but for some reason I sat at one of those free screening devices - a few weeks back - and was in the high "get-concerned" range. I am watching it and checking it (even every other day).

While it may well be a side-effect of taking this new med - and maybe my body is just "adjusting" - I think it could be that I am actually feeling a great deal of pressure (stress!)....but in a very weird, good way!!!

Because I really can do alot of the things I have ALWAYS wanted to...but could not.

So now I can just...go out and conquer that world/build that empire/slay the dragon...becaue the knight never did show up.

And I am in the process of doing just those things! And they are exciting & energizing & scary & tension-provoking & ...creating pressure.

Pressure which is leading to my high blood pressure?!? I WILL check with my MD if it doesn't get better. But I do think that seeing that I now can fly...instead of crawling...is a bigger transition to make than I had expected.

Does anyone have a SuperWoman cape I can borrow?
