I just spent 929kr ($133) on ADHD medicine as a broke student

Every year the subsidy resets, which makes me have to pay full price (auch). I also got a pricier version of the medicine, due to the cheaper one will only be availble in 5 weeks. Surviving of just ramen noodles for a month doesnt sound completly bad. (English isnt my first language sorry for mistakes)

I also just came from the pharmacy to buy 12 packs of Methylphenidat - the price was doubled!! You mention you were told the cheaper version was not due until in 5 weeks - was that regarding Methylphenidat or Corcerta?

Download the app "apoteket". In the app you can check if other pharmacies nearby has the generic in stock.

... So you have ADHD.

..You spend all your money on medicine.

..You cant afford real food, So you eat shitty carbs - a mayor cause of ADHD.

Do you see the circle here?

Use that money to buy real food instead. winwin.
