Highschool anxiety
Hello! My son is about to start grade 10. He has ADD. He has never been officially diagnosed but through reading and observation I strongly believe that is his diagnosis. Along with his ADD he struggles with intense anxiety. I have to often reassure him and he’s afraid of change in routine. He is so

My boyfriend and I both have ADD/ADHD but I HATE his medications

ADD medication side effects - Concerta 36mg
I've been on a generic drug for concerta 36mg and its really helped with focus and productivity,as well as emotional regulation.my anxiety which is normally quite severe has all but gone.however the 1 thing that is really challenging is it does open you up to other "addictions" or hyperfocus on things

New to ADHD and Meds
My son was diagnosed with ADHD and ODD in May of this year. He is 6 years old and he just started taking Concerta last week. I think it’s helping a little bit but he is having trouble sleeping at night. He has never had issues before with sleeping. Has anyone else’s children been on this medication and

Re. Sotalol and Viagra.
Hello everyone who replied to my post. Thank you for your comments and of course it would be sensible to see my GP, however after more research yes, my Monomil xl, (isosorbide mononitrate ) is contraindicated with Viagra, Cialis. So, best not risk it. I guess after 30 years of Beta Blockers my poor

CBD Oil ....Maybe
My son was diagnosed with ADHD at 4. He currently takes Concerta, after trying others, and we hate the side effects. If he does not take the meds I’m getting calls from school. He was also diagnosed with a learning disability this past year at school. He struggles with anger and emotional issues, mostly

Dexmethylphenidate ER 20mg
Hi all, I am the mom of a 12 year old that I knew had ADHD when I was pregnant with him! We didn't start the process of finding the right meds for him until he was 6, when he was officially diagnosed. Adderall and Concerta, at different doses were the drugs that we began with, but just before he graduated

13 year old son with adhd & odd
I have also been wondering about CBD oil for my son. We have tried adderall, Concerta and a couple other stimulants. Then we tried Wellbutrin. Nothing really helps. He refuses to complete any work at school, he argues a lot, he just failed every class in 8th grade. He’s been suspended WAY more times

The everyday struggle with meds and doctors
I am currently taking concerta and I been getting an itch everywhere on my face after the medication wears off. It's really annoying. I might go back to adderall xr ig this continues.
