This might be a weirdly specific question, but I just started taking ADHD medication, and now I can’t stop thinking about this. My twin and I always talk about picking up each other’s moods, even when we’re apart. But what about when your brain chemistry is literally being changed by meds?
If we’re actually sharing some level of awareness. A pharmaceutical change would register on their end, too, right? Even unconsciously?
And then there’s more intense stuff like psychedelics or smoking weed. If one twin’s consciousness is really altered, does the other feel pulled into something off without knowing why? I know my twin smokes sometimes and sometimes I do get that feeling out of nowhere in the evenings.

This is one of those things that is really hard to track, but I have noticed a few small, weird overlaps. Minor physical stuff with small over the counter things like allergy pills but more noticeably with alchohol or weed, the other seems to get a minor version of the effects (even physically apart so I’m not talking about second hand smoke).
You get way more than random thoughts, at least in my experience. They probably pick up on something when your brain chemistry shifts. They’re not suddenly tripping alongside you or anything (that would be a whole different conversation). More like a slight mood dip, maybe some unexpected sadness floating through that they can’t quite place.
Nothing major. And half the time they might not even notice because they got distracted by literally anything else. Kind of reassuring if you think about it. Kind of.
I went to an ayahuasca ceremony last December in which I processed a lot of stuff, cried my eyes out for hours, released a lot of anger and resentment and felt the immensity of the unconditional love I have for my twin. Left the ceremony feeling lighter and at peace with how things are at the moment. That feeling lasted and increased as time passed. Then 3 days later, out of nowhere and when I certainly wasn’t thinking about him, I get hit by a sudden wave of anticipation, anxiety and fear of rejection and the clear knowing that we were going to be talking that evening. Like it was a done deal. Then around 15 minutes later that feeling suddenly vanished and I went back to my normal frame of thinking. I don’t know if it was the intensity of the ayahuasca or the detachment that followed but I’m almost 100% sure that he felt something, enough to make him consider reaching out, maybe even write the text at which point he started overthinking that I might tell him to go to hell, panicked and decided not to send it. In my head I talk to him on an hourly basis and it doesn’t give me any anxiety so that is the only ‘logical’ thing that makes sense to me… as bonkers as all of this sounds.
If your twin genuinely registers what you put in your body, every substance choice you make carries ethical weight that most people just don’t think about. Take your prescribed meds, obviously. But sit with that for a second. Your choices are rippling into someone else’s nervous system without their knowledge or consent. Maybe don’t do anything that would mess with them.
Yep. Even when we’re miles apart, if my twin is going through something intense, I can pick up on it. At first, I thought it was just the energy exchange kind of thing but when I went on a trip recently to smoke some weed for a couple of nights I saw that almost immediately my twin was telling his work he was going to be unproductive for a couple of days. I hadn’t said anything to him at this point so he must have also known my plans were a few days away.
I don’t know if this would be considered related or not but both my twin and I smoked too much when we were teenagers and both decided to get sober around the same time.
The clearest ‘cross-over’ I’ve noticed tends to happen when either of us changes state - meds, weed, even something as mild as melatonin can do it. When my twin started a new prescription last year, I had three nights in a row where I was in this bright white room with him, and he kept repeating the same sentence over and over like he was rehearsing it. Found out later he’d been feeling ‘focused but emotionally flat’ and was trying to find the right words for his therapist. Three nights. Same room.
This happened to me before I even understood what was going on. Spent a whole day cleaning my room feeling completely hungover - that heavy, foggy, been-drinking feeling. Except I hadn’t touched anything. My daughter actually suggested maybe my twin was drinking, so I texted him and sure enough… drunk.
We weren’t even really talking at that point. Just occasional check-ins. But I had been feeling his state all day without realizing it, and that was my first real awareness of this connection working like that.
So yeah, I think one or both can pick up on these things without ever discussing it. We’re in separation now but the dreams keep coming and signs keep pointing toward reunion. I don’t know, divine timing or whatever.
Yeah I do this actually. I stopped assuming the energetic connection only counts for the deep spiritual stuff and started paying attention to everything. Meds included. Felt obvious in hindsight.
Whether your twin consciously registers your ADHD medication shift or just gets a vague ‘something’s different’ ping, the sharing doesn’t really discriminate. Pharmaceutical, emotional - it picks it all up.
