As far back as I can remember, I’ve had trouble making eye contact with almost anyone. I always find myself looking at their nose or shirt or even past their shoulders, And I never catch myself doing it until after the fact. It’s been a problem with some people, causing them to assume I’m snobby or rude.

I might have to go on a medication to reduce my heart rate caused by adderall. Has anyone else had this experience? Is there an ADHD medicine that doesn’t cause your heart rate to spike? I have been on medication for ADHD all my life and I have really noticed that my heart starts racing every time I take it?
