I feel lost, like a fish flopping on shore.
Like my bio says, I was treated for depression for 25 years at least and they didn't work. I finally asked my prescriber for a medication to get me through the holidays and make me feel uplifted for a change. She prescribed Adderall and my life has never been the same. It was like I was finally alive

11 yr old son. ADHD, anger/emotional rollercoaster
My son becomes so uncomfortable early in the morning and often even in the afternoon. He takes Adderall 30mg in the morning and 20mg in the afternoon. Does great at school but gets in the moods at home where he will not listen, says terrible things to my wife and I, doesn't care about anything. Disciplinary

Has anyone tried saffron?
I’ve been having a hard time finding the right dose for Adderall and it’s been making me very frustrated. My doctor asked me if I had tried saffron. This surprised me because he is a very conservative doctor. There was a very short article in Pyschology Today that said children and adolescents

Vyvanse titration and career thoughts/tangent
This started as a question about medication titration but spun off on a little tangent about my work and career that felt relevant... A little background... After reading an article a (ADHD diagnosed) friend sent me (6 months ago) about ADHD in relationships (relating to this all too much), staring

Meds for DMDD & ADHD
My son was recently diagnosed with DMDD along with his ADHD last week. I was wondering if any parents here have their kids on any medications for both disorders? So far his psychiatrist only prescribed him with Quillivant XR. we haven’t started medicating him yet because we’re waiting for authorization

Maybe I don’t know
well I have tried a few different medications and they suck! I am working on getting my hormones in check as that is what caused my ADHD to get bad. My doctor don’t know why I became anemic so that is weird. So I am on all kinds of supplements which I feel like they might be helping. Get my vitamin

coffee and adderall
Hello all, like it says…adderall and coffee. I’m very mentally addicted to coffee. I’ve convinced myself that it’s my treat, it’s my one drug, it’s the only way I can be productive or feel ok, etc, etc. but for the past couple of weeks, I have been on adderall. I feel like I should quit the coffee

ADHD Medications don’t mix well
I’ve been suffering from ADHD since I was a child. No matter what ADHD medications I take I get hyper focused and almost makes my ADHD worse. I find caffeine helps with ADHD but why do I get such a nasty feeling with things like Adderall and even non-stimulants like Wellbutrin? Any natural supplements

What To Do Next?
Hi Friends, First post here, although I've come back to this forum a few times. I'm at a spot where, even though I know it's untrue, I feel like I'm experiencing anxiety like no one has ever experienced it before (we all know the lonely feeling). I've been dealing with this for about a year an a half

Abnormally Long Adderall Rebound?
Has anyone else whose taken
Adderall
XR
ever experienced seriously long rebound symptoms when it wears off? I started taking it again within the last couple months along with guanfacine on my psych's recommendation, but since then I saw a noticeable increase in irritability.

Nothing is working! I’m not asking for advice I’m just feeling sorry for myself.
My girl is 8. She is hyper, extremely defiant, immature, LOUD, obnoxious, and has no impulse control. Honestly, I think she may be a narcissist. Can you tell at 8? I can’t leave her alone because any time I do she at best makes huge messes which she never cleans up but usually destroys things that are

ADHD and stimulate abuse and recovery
Hello, as is common with ADHD I have struggled with an addiction to stimulants since an early age. My normal routine is to be sober for 2-4 years and then struggle for about a year. Well my year is up again and I need to quit hitting it so hard. This time instead of going cold turkey I’m thinking
