this morning, amphetamine took more than 2 hours to work. I was on video off during my 9-10AM meeting and I actually fell asleep. I woke up when I was startled at the end of the meeting when a different person started talking in an unexpected voice. And then after the meeting I stayed in bed, unable to get up. Only now, at 11AM, am I slowly ramping up.

I am starting to think that I need a short term disability leave to figure out these meds. It is very stressful to work against a deadline while never being guaranteed a reasonable wake-up routine.
