Correct me if I'm wrong but untreated sleep apnea can cause depression and focus issues.

I finally get myself a CPAP machine recently.

I'm actually unmedicated at the moment. (I see my psych about it next week about it)

But I was hoping it's a thing for focus issues to improve from CPAP machine usage.

I mean. It should make sense right? Improving sleep quality has numerous benefits and I'm sure it will help with my focus issues. (maybe not as much as ADHD medications but still)

From my understanding sleep apnea can cause depression.

I believe it can also cause focus issues.

What I'm getting at is I think it would make sense for untreated sleep apnea to make ADHD symptoms worse.

Something that is like 10 feet.

Or is it more like I need a standard size heated tube and get an extension tube for it?

It seems depression/anhedonia, I'm sure untreated ADHD, as well untreated sleep apnea explains why I have trouble focusing and enjoying hobbies like watching TV/Movies and Video Games.

My spring semester is essentially over and I have even more free time! I was struggling with boredom before but now I'll even be more bored.

I find boredom and understimulation makes my depression worse too.

I find that getting out of the house helps but unfortunately I don't have my driver's license yet.

It's the reason why I'm not volunteering.

All I know is I'm having trouble finding ways to be busy. I don't know. I feel like boredom is driving me crazy!

I recently went for an interview for an office assistant job that involves marketing and staffing support. I spoke with two people that day, the second one more briefly.

If all goes well I just have to speak with the administrator. (they won't be back until next week)

It sounds like they will make a decision on the spot if I were to come in.

I'm scared. I'm anxious.

This could be my first job! (finally after months!)

How different is the first interview is compared to the second one normally? Unsure what to expect.

I have confirm with my psychiatrist instructions tomorrow morning.

Long story short, I went up to 400 mg and got heart palpitations. (it was scary)

Went down to 200 mg 6 days following my psychiatrist's instructions. Side effects improve but sadly didn't go away.

I was gonna give it more time (I see my psych next week) but last night happened and my heart palpitations got worse.

I think my psychiatrist will say to stop Qelbree immediately tomorrow.

Also, is there anything I can do about heart palpitations on my own to help stop or reduce severity? (so I can get through tonight)

EDIT: My psychiatrist wants me to take Qelbree 200 mg every other day for 7 days before stopping. I hope my heart palpitations will stop right away.
