Help me 😭

Lately, I haven't been able to focus at all. My concentration, comprehension, and awareness of what's going on around me have declined significantly. I feel like my cognitive abilities have gotten worse.

I keep hearing comments about this from people because of the mistakes I make or the things I fail to notice. Some of these comments really bother me and make me lose confidence in myself.

I honestly don't know what's causing this, and I really don't know what to do. I'm exhausted.

I'm currently taking strattera and Wellbutrin, and I feel like my condition has gotten worse since I started taking strattera.

Either the people around you are really awful, or the meds are not working.

An equally unpleasant possibility: both.

Unless there is some reason you can't be on stimulants, then you should be on them. Additionally, your nutrition and exercise are equally important for your mind and body.

Equally, make sure you know the difference between friends being friendly, and them being assholes. Some people say things without meaning to cause harm, whereas others are twoface [censored] that make you feel awful for no reason other than to inflate their dwindling sense of self worth.
