Highest Dose Survey
We're a familiar enough with the medications we take and average limits along with fda max limits. I was curious if anyone here is prescribed abnormally large doses of any psychotropic; one pharmacist told me 40mg of Lexapro is not unheard of. So whatever medication you take, if it's an abnormally large

ADHD/Shopping Addiction, struggling to be financially responsible....
I've always had a shopping addiction, especially related to clothes. In college, I would order packages every week and walk all the way across campus to the mail center, and it would be so excited to carry that package home, try on the clothes I'd ordered from Forever 21, just bask in that rush of dopamine

Help! New Med Manager is a dictator that acts like we are all addicts seeking drugs. How to find new Medication Manager.
Found
Adderall
IR is a life safer for me, the
XR
was not great. My family doctor was my prescriber then he retired. Found a new person that handled my medication management. He switched me from Adderall IR to Mydayis. Not the best fit for me.

I only lasted on Adderall 6 days, it made my depression worse
just diagnosed, started on 10mg XR last week - took it in the mornings with food. Best way I can describe it is 6 days of mental torture. Feeling weirdly calm and slow, yet my heart was thudding in my chest. I felt completely incapacitated, didn't even want to watch netflix. Tired, rather than wired.

Vyvanse vs Adderall XR/IR Experiences
Has anyone had the same experience with Vyvanse but more success with the
adderall
xr
? I haven’t asked my doc yet but is it possible to split the Vyvanse in half and dose twice a day?

Struggling for 51 years
Reading these posts make me feel not so alone. I have known something was wrong with my brain for my entire life and with many others, I just thought that I was stupid. I tried Adderall years ago and it didn't help, so I didn't think I had ADHD, but I knew something was wrong. I talked to my doctor

ADHD dual diagnosed. Meth vs Ritilin or Adderall?
Am I just delusional when I say that I need to be on ritilin or another similar medication along with cognitive and behavioral therapy? I have been treated mainly for bipolar for most of my life with everything but a stimulant medication. But when I got mixed up with ameth habit, I accidentally discovered

ADHD Diagnosis
Hello, I posted on here the other day that I have recently learned of my ADHD diagnosis. I think I found out about it because all the changes in my life exposed it to me. I moved in with my girlfriend, started a stressful job, have been locked down because of Covid when I have been an athlete the majority

Hi! Just joined and could really use some help and support.
First, I apologize for my long post. It has been difficult to find support, so I'm kind-of pouring it all out right now. My 8 year old daughter was diagnosed with ADHD right before the pandemic hit, and while we have several concerns and lots of questions, we do not have much support to address those

Stimulant/Adderall crash
I have been on
Adderall
XR
for 3 months and things have gone well, but I have noticed a recurring theme. About once a week I will suddenly be mentally exhausted and grumpy even with my medication and the only thing that fixes it is about a 12 hour sleep.

How much Adderall is too much Adderall?
I'm wondering what the typical maintenance dose of Adderall is. I'm taking 20 MG extended release and feel good, although falling asleep is challenging. Is 30 MG better? Are some people being prescribed more? What are the downsides you've experienced with higher doses?

New to this community. Diagnosed twice before 16, but stopped treatment after high school. I didn't know ADHD is so much more than difficulty paying attention! I didn't realize how much ADHD is behind a lot of my issues until relatively recently. My marriage is in shambles and I need HELP. I began taking
