That shit makes brain chemistry go haywire in weird ways.
I've had convos w/ coworkers who are on ADHD meds like me, and the hormone cycle still wreaks havoc on its effectiveness through the month. We can literally see it in productivity stats.
Stimulants of any kind are going to have an impact on your existing mental state, so even if it's not really noticeable normally, it may enhance underlying edginess to show up as actual anxious feelings, when otherwise you're pretty chill.
This is SUCH AN IMPORTANT TOPIC, because it's intentionally overlooked by medicine and science.
If you have a monthly hormone cycle, it WILL impact your mental state and the effectiveness of drugs. That doesn't mean they're bad or don't work, but rather just need to be tracked.
