I am pretty sure I have undiagnosed ADHD(its pointless getting a diagnose in my country as an adult).
My resting heart rate is pretty high, but if I do any intelectual work wahtsoever my heart rate is around 95bpm.
RItalin analogues(in therapeutic doses) bring my heart rate to 60bpm when doing intelectual work while sitting on a desk -- during my deepest sleep my heart rate is 67bpm.
My own bro-science explanation is that I compensate my ADHD with anxiety -- when I'm anxious, I can focus just fine; some stimulants allow me to focus without the anxiety and that's why I feel deep calm and reduced heart rate while using them.
- misterman0 7y agoI feel your bro science makes a lot of sense. I'm someone who's been identified as being bipolar and put on Lithium, which I quickly dropped (because it made me feel suicidal) and I instead turn to illegally acquired cannabis, which helps me to not feel the anxiety of not yet having solved a problem, something that these days freak the living shit out of me, if I'm not doped up.
- no_identd 7y agoLithium should almost certainly NOT make one suicidal when dosed correctly for Bipolar. You might wish to explore the uses of a micronutritional form of lithium, namely, lithium orotate, which gets metabolized in a very different (and safer) way than pharmacological lithium.
