Sounds about where I’m at as well.

Did you get the results of the DNA test back, and get any valuable information from it?

I’m currently taking guanfacine. It works well for me for anxiety and sleep, but has shown no improvement to my ADHD symptoms

Thanks for your response! What you’ve told me is accurate, and I have always taken all my Garmin measurements with a grain of salt. But the measurements of stress also coincide with actually feelings of immense stress, restlessness, anxiety, and extreme debilitating mental and physical fatigue.

I took Adderall for 2 years, starting with small doses and slowly titrating up after a few months of consistency. Over that time, the symptoms I describe began to start and become more severe. I did in fact have a nice stretch at the start where the Adderall was working well. I definitely didn’t jump ship at the first sign of physiological changes…only at the point where continuing with the Adderall was going to continue negatively impacting my life and work.

In my futile attempt to stop my post from running on and on with these bits of context, I omitted it and posted it…to a forum full of people that thrive on excessive amounts of context.

I took Adderall for about two years with slowly increasing dosages, so I definitely had the consistency aspect down. If anything it seemed to work well early on, but then started causing issues the longer I took it.

A guy who went through such an experience made a webcomic about it. Very long read, but incredibly powerful.

Hi friend, what are the immigration policies for your country? Asking for myself

There probably won’t be a decrease in power, as it was likely an aftertreatment issue (sizing, durability, cost cutting) that made them decide to use a defeat device. Cummins would retrofit every cheating engine with a brand new aftertreatment system at great cost rather than reduce the power of their engines. The brand damage of reducing power would far outweigh any repair and warranty costs.

Very likely. Higher NOx out of the engine generally means lower fuel consumption, so the fix will likely decrease the real world mpg that owners were seeing.

I’ve not yet seen any technical information on the defeat device, but from my time in the industry I can make an educated guess how it will play out

And apparently has cameras and sensors that detect if you cover up the 2nd screen. Truly dystopian, but also they weren’t exactly hiding these features if people bought the TVs…
