I misread this as erectile dysfunction and was super concerned about the solutions.
Put your cock 15 minutes ahead.
I did but always came too early
Bravo

Well, one of the non stimulant adhd meds gave me light ED while I took it
I can see guanfacine doing this, as it lowers blood pressure.
I did try guanfacine, but it was actually the atomoxetine that did it. Can’t remember if it occurred with the 25mg, but for sure did with the 40mg
Thanks for sharing that. The guaf is helping me now, no side effects noted. It's pulling double duty for my BP as well. Only concern is that I think it was making me drowsy for the first month or so.
That’s great it’s working. Nine of the non stimulants worked for me unfortunately. Atomoxetine gave me some euphoria for a couple days and then some ED later on. Guanfacine had no effect that I noticed. I’ve been on lisdexamfetamine for over a year now and it has been going great. I started on 25?mg, upped to 40mg, and then to 60mg which is where I’m at. It started with a couple days of euphoria, especially the first day. The dose kept getting upped because I wasn’t sure if it was working, but I think it was because being medicated became my new normal. It was noticeable that it was working when I didn’t take a dose :P. I think I’m more prone to binge eat when I miss a dose, more likely to be overwhelmed and become frantic. My wife asks me if I took my medicine when I don’t, she’s never asked on a day where I did take it, so it is pretty noticeable to her. My blood pressure is on the border of elevated, so I wonder if a lower mg would be fine, at some point I might try, but currently I have switched from regular coffee to decaf
Guaf took over a month to start working. It's a very even keel kind of thing. It was less an instant fix and more a realization that I seem to have shit together.
The guaf is also with Concerta XR, and it helps counterbalance the stimulant effect.
Ah, yeah… I think I was on it at most for a month, could be why
