So peaceful. I need at least three screaming voices to avoid the Internal Carnival Music 🎪

Before i was got on meds, i constantly had music playing in my head along with all the other thoughts that were trying to be heard.

Okay get this - when I finally got on meds for the nth (and hopefully last) time, the voices in my head immediately changed from an incoherent chorus of self-hatred to "why is this song playing in my head?" and "It's kind of a bop, though."

The relief was incredible, if also a little weird.

Lol ive had that kind of experience as well. I got lucky and first med i tried was really effective. I'm now able to just stop thinking for a while. All the voices are quiet and no music plays.

I just got diagnosed last year and ive had ADHD all my life without knowing it so super weird to just have a quiet head. I get what you mean, its such a drastic change, but a good one.
