Hi holmless, did you have heightened senses before taking ADHD medication? I don’t have a ‘come down’ feeling after taking my meds – I am sort of on or off, and the difference is subtle. There isn’t an in between feeling. I’m a bit worried about you! I think you should visit your prescribing doctor and talk about this – it may be that you should be on a milder dose or a different brand.
A non ADHD friend of mine is super sensitive to smells, taste and hearing – he is also very sensitive to stimulants. A few sips of alcohol and he feels very weird ( unlike me! ) – a mild spice in food and he flushes. Your sensitivity may not be compatible with your current meds, or the meds may be releasing an unhelpful consequence.
Take advice as soon as possible – this can be sorted out.
