Focalin comedown
My son (11) has been on Focalin XR for about 2 months (5mg the first month - no effect, and now 10mg). We've noticed that around 7pm, he often can get super down and sad. It's not every night, but it's at least a couple times a week. Sometimes he can identify something bothering him, but other times

Trying to find some meaning in my "Golden Years"
Every day is the same as the last. I sit in a 10 ft. room with my laptop and endlessly scroll out of boredom and ennui. Nothing it seems gives me any pleasure. I used to do oil paintings and have been told I'm very talented, but I don't have any motivation to anymore. I used to play music but I no longer

Side effects of Adderall XR
Has anyone else developed a sore throat or cough on Adderall XR? If so does regular Adderall have the same effect. I’ve recently (about 4-5 months ago) started ADHD meds after being off for about 8 years. I suffer from EDS (excessive daytime sleepiness) in addition to ADHD of the primarily inattentive

Stuttering
Just noticed today our 8 year old with ADHD stuttering while doing math homework. It was very brief. At first I thought he was acting, but when I asked him, he said no. The only med he is on at this time is Effexor for anxiety. Has anyone observed this in their child? If this prevelant in kids with

Ketamine - a profound experience
Three weeks ago I went for a Ketamine therapy visit. My goal was to reduce my anxiety and get help with my existential fears. Had tried Effexor, but didn't like the way it made me feel and was concerned other anti-anxiety meds would do same. Ketamine is a short acting anesthetic, but at a lower dose

Learning and Careers with B12 Anemia
Hi everyone, I wanted to know what everyone studied and does for a living here. I am feeling down because I have not done well with college and keeping a job because of my anemia. I just want to know if anyone else went thru that, still is dealing with that, and/or is able to live a normal life. I

New Poster, nervous and unsure if this is real.
Well here goes… Hello anyone who is out there reading this, thanks for stopping by. I do not know what I am doing. I am 38 years old. I have lived my life up until this point running from reality and living in a delusional bubble of my own construction, which has lead me to mostly withdraw from society

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

I Need to see a Psychiatrist
I am suffering from severe anxiety. My family doctor put me on effexor last month. I feel awful and can't stand this feeling anymore. I looked up the timeline to see a Psych in Ontario Canada and it's a 4 month average. Should I try to see a psychologist even though I can't afford it? I am desparate

Want to get rid of brain zaps? I recently figured out how.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is, right? Wrong. First off, bear in mind: I AM NOT A DOCTOR NOR DO I CLAIM TO HAVE ANY MEDICAL TRAINING OR QUALIFICATIONS WHATSOEVER. I have a B. Sc. In Environmental Science but it gives me a knowledge of half-lives of chemicals in a biological system

Help! I am on 150mgs of Venlafaxine or Effexor xl capsules but i have to take out 2 little tablets because 126mgs suits me better. My Pharmacist keeps changing brand names which is messing with my moods. Now inside the capsules i am getting granules instead of tiny tablets. I have counted
