Refusing to take ADHD medicine
His psychiatrist wants to prescribe
Concerta
but my son is unwilling. He is irritable, defiant and stubborn. I’m frustrated and resorting to using “carrots and sticks” around what he most wants. Any parents experiencing this ?Any suggestions? Thanks

Could This Really Be Undiagnosed Adult ADHD?
She had me go on a trial for medication
Concerta
(which I think may have been new to the market at the time) at a young age (obviously there was enough reasoning behind putting me on that in the first place).

Anyone realize undiagnosed ADHD may have been the problem your entire life? Were you conditioned to not even question anything was "wrong"?

Back to Square 1
First
concerta
but then made the switch to biphentin. However he did not gain any weight in a year and was losing more weight towards the end of the year on being on stimulants. So 1 year later, we are back to square 1.

Skin problems while on Med?
I've been taking
Concerta
for about a few months. I've been noticing my skin becoming extremely itchy especially at night, and my face is beginning to get bumpy and red. I had acne before but it was never like this. I'm also in my 30's so, I'm not sure if it's a sign that I'm aging.

Diagnosed at 40. Advice needed please :(
I took my 27MG of
Concerta
instead. I want to see if that will help, without causing anxiety. My doctor said I should not be switching back and forth (otherwise we will not know which one is working.) Please help! Sara

Can you have withdrawl ?
Trying low doses of
concerta
, and most recently adderall. Adderall is making me too anxious, so I stopped yesterday. Yesterday, I felt like crap. I slept most of the day away. Keep in mind, I was up late for New Year's Eve the night before.

PSA rising, won't be able to escape ADT. Any tips for brain-fog and depression handling?
So to compensate against this, I hope that a cocktail of Effexor, Coffee (I did not drink any back when I was on Lupron) and
Concerta
(long-lasting Ritalin-like) will allow the brain-fog to dissipate because I won't be able to keep my job if I am to be brain-dead for the next two years in case we go

ADHD Medication
A month ago my 17 yo son started on
Concerta
XL with low dosage and now at 54mg. He is diagnosed with ADHD inattentive type. I have not yet seen much improvement in his school work, very inconsistent grades (from As to Fs in few weeks).

Strange question: Does Concerta make you burp a lot?
I'm taking
Concerta
and I realize that when I take it I burp more than when I wasn't taking it. Has anyone experience this, or am I being weird?

Concerta and adhd medications
I am using
concerta
for 3 days. And it almost did nothing. Don't feel any difference. İs it normal ? Using 18mg a day. I would be happy to hear others experiences with it (
concerta
). Also love to hear from the ones that tried more than one medications about which one has a better effect.

How long should I try a new medication?
I just started
Concerta
two weeks ago. 1st week 18mg absolutely no response, 2nd Week 27mg and only experiencing headache and tiredness about 6 hours after taking it. My question is, how long do you trial this medication before calling it quits and trying something else?

How do I go about getting back on my medication if I don't have health insurance and I also don't want to be put on anything but what I was taking when I was taking off my medication just because I ran out of health insurance because I turned 18. I can't keep a job to get back on health insurance, and
