Bellu Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 So I'm just curious is there any correlation between ADHD and AroAce less so In the disorder more so in the medication because I did previously had crushed when I was 6 and when I was 11 I began taking meds for ADHD and hsvent since so it could lower libido or romantic attraction idk maybe I'm secretly straight but the medicine take away my libido lol so if you have ADHD or take ADHD mes share your thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjoy Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 i honestly don’t know but you should probably search up what exact effects and side effects your meds might have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jot-Aro Kujo Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I have severe ADHD, and I've been on and off medication for it since I was a kid. I'm very much aro and very much not ace. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjoy Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 maybe this is not what you need but i just randomly found a post about struggles people with adhd might face when it comes to sex. there’re also some people sharing how’s it for them in the comments. so maybe it’s not a low libido or anything but adhd experience. i don’t see anyone talking about how’s it with meds tho https://www.instagram.com/p/CoAwV8WsKms/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmbo Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I've never heard of medication affecting romantic attraction. Interesting question. I suppose in theory it could affect it by changing mood and maybe also feelings of attachment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's said about SSRIs that they blunt romantic feelings (see here), but they obviously aren't an ADHD medication. If I knew the exact meds OP is taking, I could search for their side effects. But not knowing them, I don't have the desire to sift through all this huge amount of misinformation and exaggeration on psych meds (still a hot button topic). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
