I take concerta which although a stimulant is also an SNRI, so a lot of drugs in this class are also anti depressants. Even with amphetamines one of the most common withdrawal side effects is depression.

Probably not. My question is general on time cuz some people take a week off and some people take the weekend off

 

I've struggled a lot with trying to take drug holidays. When I do them, I end up lying in bed all day and become depressed and/or extremely tired.

What are things that you do to make it easier?

For those that don't know: A 'drug holiday' is essentially a day that you don't take your ADHD medication so that your body has time to decrease tolerance and make the medication more effective.

I'm not a programmer or coder and I've been using Linux for about a year. It's been really user friendly after I figured out what distros are and which one to choose. I highly recommend Linux Mint Debian Edition. It's worked quite well for me and was not a huge jump from windows because the user interface is similar. All you need to install it is a thumb drive.

I like playing games on steam and haven't had any issues. There's this really cool website called protondb where you can search steam game compatibility with Linux. For the few that aren't compatible, oftentimes people share fixes which usually consists of copy pasting stuff on there.
