    Missed the methylphenidate killing your appetite, where you’re hungry but the act of chewing makes you feel repulsed.

        Does it ever go away? I keep stopping my meds but when I start back it’s hell again for a while

          I think i just developed my eating habits around it. I eat before i take it and eat after i wears off. Dont really have an appetite while it affects me so its never been a problem.

          Finding a medication that effects your appetite the least also helps. Vyvanse doesnt give me food repulsion nearly to the extent that adderall did. I can even get through a whole sandiwich if i need it.

          I do think that to an extent i have also gotten used to it. It isnt nearly as gag inducing as it was when i was a kid but i was on different meds then so idk
