My joints are constantly hurting, but I also drink caffinated beverages while I'm taking the meds.

Slowing Things Down
I was finally diagnosed with ADHD last year at 48, though I’ve had it most of my life. I run my own event production business and do almost everything myself. Unfortunately I get overwhelmed with all of my responsibilities and my coping mechanism is to shut down because everything seems to be going so

Running and Concerta
Was diagnosed with AdHD last December, been taking Concerta ( 18 or 36 mcg). Im also a runner. But Ive had a few months of not intensive running due to study). I'm 64. The thing is, Concerta isa bit scary in that when I run in the morning, before taking the meds, I run much faster than usual without

Looking for my Miracle
I've had persistent AFib for decades. Cardiologist and EP suggested ablation, watchman, every pill and treatment out there but I never felt they were the right thing to do, other than taking many meds, Altace, Toprol XL, Amiodarone, etc. Most recently I had to go onto Xarelto, 'tho I resisted it for

Irritability in the evenings
I have always had a hard time transitioning from work to home. Even before I had kids, I would have to decompress before I could even talk to my husband. With kids, it’s worse because I just have to jump into being with them, making dinner, laundry etc. I have built in a little break for myself that

Flying from U.S.A. to Ireland with medication?
hi you all, I thought I’d ask here, as there may be Irish people on here that can help answer my question. Or Americans who have traveled to Ireland with their stimulant medication. Can I fly from the USA to Ireland with my stimulant ADHD medication? I looked online, but haven’t found any specific

has anybody switched from Vyvanse to Concerta because Vyvanse only last a couple hours?
I have been on by Vance three months now, and it seems to only last a couple hours before it starts to wear off. I’ve been reading, and some people metabolize vitamins, much faster than others. Has anybody found a way to make it last longer? I am thinking about switching to Concerta because of the

Introduction and looking for feedback
Hello everyone. Like many here, I've had Restless Legs Syndrome for a long time. I was diagnosed in 2003 after a sleep study, but suspect I had it many years before being diagnosed. RLS was the first medication I was ever prescribed and it completely changed my life. I really don't know who I would be

How do you know if Concerta is working?
This may seem a strange question. My son is on his 3rd week of Concerta. 18mg week 1, 36mg week 2 and now on 54mg. He is having trouble saying if it is having any positive effect. The first week he had a low level headache for a few days, which wore off. Now he is on the high dose he said he is having

Is it ADHD or Aspergers?
Good Day So at about the age of 6 my son was diagnosed with ADHD. Since then we have had him on various dosages of Concerta to assist him with his concentration especially at school. We have found that the medication does help with his concentration and does take the "edge" off of his explosive behaviour

Mirtazapine(Remeron) with RLS?
My recent posts are about insomnia with Gabapentin. I have found suggestions that Wellbutrin XL is possibly the culprit. My husband's psychiatrist has suggested Mirtazapine which is an antidepressant that helps with insomnia. Has anyone had any experience with this medication? My concern is that

Socially, Concerta vs Adderall
Hi, Hopefully someone can help me here. Seems like a supportive community. I was diagnosed with ADHD 3 years ago. My psychiatrist has me using Concerta and Adderall or Dexedrine (due to the shortage of Adderall) on different days. It seems that I communicate better and calmer on the Concerta; however

ADHD/Impulse Control Help
My son is 9...diagnosed when he was 6. Have tried a bunch of meds and landed on a combo of Straterra and Concerta that work well for his ADHD. However his impulse control has been non existent lately and hes being really hurtful and disrespectful. I am picking him up from daycare and receiving multiple

Struggling with work/life balance
I’m finding myself stuck within the same struggle that I constantly keep circling back to. I feel like there has to be an answer or a solution, but maybe there just isn’t. I tried meds, Vyvanse, for about 3 years. In the beginning I thought it was working, then not so much. I played around with dosing

LDN for ADHD when taking Concerta?
My 21 year old daughter was diagnosed with ADHD a few months ago. We were wondering whether LDN can be taken while also taking ADHD meds (in this case, she is on Concerta - slow release Methylphenidate). We were hoping that she might be able to slowly taper off the Concerta and use LDN in the meantime
