Rexulti, Electroconvulsive Therapy, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?
I'm currently on 20 mg Lexapro, 20 mg
Adderall
(prescribed off-label for depression and lethargy), and 4 mg Klonopin. I don't tend to get my hopes up with new medications, because at best I only notice minuscule improvements.

Cll and fatigue
My family doctor prescribed
Adderall
to help with the fatigue. Has anyone else been prescribed
Adderall
and found it helpful or is anyone else aware of a better solution? I've also been advised to begin a regular exercise routine.

MARIO
My son (6 years old) has been on
Adderall
since Tuesday 12/26/17. He has become hyperfocused on Mario. It probably didnt help that he got a switch for christmas and played the Mario game. Yesterday he talked non stop about Mario and even referred to himself as Mario all day long.

Advice needed
Hi all, I am an almost 35 year old female and my PCP has been treating me for ADD for the past 10+ years with 30 mg of XR
Adderall
/day. I did not undergo any testing other than detailed conversations with PCP. I have an excellent job, two healthy, young (1 and almost 3) children, own a home, etc.

ADD & AN AGGRESSIVE HUSBAND WHO BLAMES ME & THREATENS ALL THE TIME!
We have done ADD coaching, marriage counseling, read books, restricted food (to only have him have small amounts that can cause a total relapse), mindfulness, anger management classes and he is on
Adderall
XR. What doctor in MN can help identify and care for the whole thing?

9 year old son is explosive
We see a neuropsychologist and he is taking
Adderall
, Abilify, Zoloft and Clonidine. He manages to stay fairly calm during school but he often sits and does not do his work. He is very smart, but impulsive, aggressive and ODD as well as OCD.

Switching from Ritalin to Adderall
Has anyone switched from Ritalin to
Adderall
and seen improvement? My 6 year old son has been on Ritalin 5mg (2x per day) with not much improvement in focus and impulse control. A day here and there at best. His dr. Has suggested switching to
Adderall
5mg to see if it makes a difference.

Feel like giving up, but hanging in there for now...
Right now, I am on Prozac, Wellbutrin and
Adderall
. The Prozac has helped more than any other drug I’ve tried over the past 2 years, buy I can’t shake the depression, anxiety, shame etc…and Attention Deficit Disorder symptoms.

New to the site
He takes 15mg of
Adderall
in the morning and 2mg of Intuniv in the evening. The
Adderall
wears off at approximately 3PM each day and he is an emotional wreck. The Intuniv is meant to help with sleep but my son wakes up multiple times throughout the night.

I’m a mom of an ADHD and ODD child!
We have him on
Adderall
, we didn’t want him to take pills but now is a must. I hurt everyday and I wonder if I’m doing the right thing for him. He is such a good kid with wonderful feelings we love him so much. But he has those outbursts and we can’t control him.
