I am visiting independently and paying in full.

I have spent days researching but feel completely overwhelmed by the mixed information online. I am traveling to Seoul soon but will only be there for two days. Because my time is short, I am terrified of being pressured into aggressive upselling or getting high-risk treatments that require long recovery times.

My primary skin concerns are hyperpigmentation, minor atrophic cheek scars, and mild skin laxity.
I am currently considering:
PicoSure Toning and Potenza
Shurink
A basic pore facial & mole removal

I have narrowed it down to either Re Berry, cellin in Myeongdong, Fine. Does anyone have any experiences with these places that I should consider?

Does anybody have any comparisons of these listed clinics that have gone in specifically for acne scar pigmentation, minor atrophic scars, skin tightening?

Has anyone with similar concerns found a clinic in Seoul that genuinely focused on safety and skipped the heavy sales pitches? I need to book ASAP due to my tight window. Any personal experiences would mean the world to me.

Thank you so much!

I was diagnosed with innatentive adhd in mid March this year through the right to choose and immediately started the titration process. I feel I’m in a deep deep state of paralysis and eyes are hooked on phone and can’t take care of anything. I feel completely depleted and out of control.

Elvanse 30mg - Day one I was completely shocked. My head wasn’t spinning. I felt calm and could tackle my responsibilities. Stop tasks when I needed to, organise and get my life in order. I was just shocked that things felt easy and I could process reading emails without jumping all over the screen. I was absorbing information in a way I never have been able to. Even something as simple as blow drying my hair was the easiest thing. I never knew how hard everything is to do until it wasn’t.

The next day felt intensely focused on tax stuff and spent the next three days obsessively doing my accounting without stopping.

Then it just stopped working I felt low energy, couldn’t focus, things seemed hard.

Elvanse 50mg- The clinician increased my dosage to 50mg and that’s when it started to get worse. I was completely disassociating mid task. Even something like going to the toilet- I’d zone out and have everything blurry zone out so much I’d lose track of time. Everything was blurry. Internally I felt soooo spinny with racing thoughts and I couldn’t keep up. I couldn’t even write how I felt down in one sentence on a piece of paper to remember to report to my clinician for the next appointment.

It was awful. Spent days just zoned out and obsessively scrolling on my phone even as I showered 😵‍💫

Elvanse 70mg

They increased my dosage to try out before we switch to something else since they said it seemed to work day 1. I felt less disassociated. Had more energy but still felt like i couldn’t control what I was doing. I felt stuck on my phone obsessively scrolling but I didn’t zone out the way I did on the 50 mg.

Now I’m on nothing for a few days before we try concerta.

I am soooo depressed I can’t move and take care of what I need to do.

Part of my depression feels like this because I experienced one day of not being in a mental battle with myself and realised others don’t have their internal thoughts constantly fighting for attention. I zone out and am in a deep chronic burnout. It could be because I’ve been unemployed for a significant amount of time I’m too embarrassed to say for how long and because my mum has bpd and recently had a rage episode which I was the target for, which always sends me into a depressive emotional state for a while afterwards.

I’m not sure what I’m asking but I just want to know if what I’m feeling is normal for titration process? Do people feel depleted and sad when they take time off during titration before switching?

The doctor prescribed 3 days of 50mg before three days of nothing but I skipped the 50mg bc of how horrible and scary it was to be on it the first time. Any advice or suggestions would be so appreciated.

Thanks so much for reading
