Extended Release Medication Problems
I find I crash hard from Adderall XR but not the IR. Anyone else have those issues? I've heard some people have problems with extended release medications but can't find any research on it to present to my doctor.

Effexor
Hello, my name is Anna , does anyone have any experience being on Effexor for anxiety and depression (low mood)? If so, did you taper off, we’re the withdrawals bad?

Adderall XR experience.
We are on day 3 of 10mg adderall XR with my 6 year old son. It’s been heartbreaking so far. He’s so irritable and emotional. The sitter says he hasn’t even laughed or smiled today. We are trying to give it a good week, but gosh… it’s hard to know what to do!

Decreased appetite & picky eater
Hi - So my 6 year old son has been on Adderall XR and as his dose has increased we are now seeing a large decrease in his appetite. He is a thin kiddo as it is, so losing weight isn't something he has much leeway on. He's just over 4ft tall and 46 lbs. I've been giving him incentives for eating which

Direct switch of meds
I was on 150 mg of
Effexor
XR
then went to 75 mg for 1 week then right into 100 mg of Zoloft. Effexor works good for me but I’m experiencing some OCD issues I’d like to control so my doctor and therapist said it wouldn’t hurt to try the Zoloft and see if it helps.

I’m new
Hello all, I’m new and just seeking to interact with others who experience depression and anxiety. I just increased my dosage of Effexor by 37.5mg last week and am experiencing tiredness and loss of appetite. I’m praying the increased dosage will help sooner than later. I still feel ashamed and weak

Meds and Marijuana use
I smoked marijuana a fair amount about 16 years ago before I was diagnosed with ADHD and then I just stopped. A few years later I was diagnosed with ADHD and I have anxiety with a bit of depression. I’ve been taking Adderall for several years now, currently taking Adderall XR 25mg twice a day, Cymbalta

It’s been a while
Hello community, I was doing good but then a voice in my head keeps telling me I don’t need my medicine. So I got off of it and I’ve been off my Effexor 75mg for 2months. I told my doctor I was feeling better so I think I should get off of it and she reduced my dose to 25mg for 7 days. After those days

Anxiety suffering
Hello all. I think this forum probably helps many people. You all deserve love and respect. I have suffered from anxiety and depression for probably 30 years. I was on Effexor for about 10 years with my anxiety somewhat under control. I tried to wean myself off the Effexor a few months ago and now

Help finding a therapist
Hi! I'm new and kinda lost. I'm hoping someone can please me. We had my son tested last year for ADHD. We received the test results the same week as the pandemic. He is 10 yrs old and in 4th grade. His pediatrician has him on Focalin XR since last summer, which I think helps some days and not others

Ruled by anxiety
Hi all. This is my first post. I'd like to say that I have been taking Effexor for years, and have been given Xanax as well, which I never take simply because I want to limit my intake of pharmaceuticals. The Effexor has done nothing for me, and it is so very difficult to wean off of it, which I decided

Focalin XR Parents
Hi All, Looking for some feedback on what to feed my child before Focalin XR 10 mg. He's 8, recently diagnosed with ADHD after a LONG LONG road trying to figure out why he couldn't control his emotions. We've had GREAT results so far, but noticed some dips around lunch time, and variation on when things
