ADHD and trying for children
I'm now on 30mg of
Elvanse
, which helps me so much with my day to day. It completely eradicates the brain fog and I now have a chance of paying attention in meetings.

15 year old daughter with ADHD
Hello, My 15 year old was diagnosed 3 years ago and at that time we decided to try Neuro feedback. It worked for a while but now she was really struggling and we decided to put on Vyvanse 20 mg to start. She is very thin and now the Dr. wants to add Remeron. We moved her up to 30 mg today and she

New here - Grandson has ADHD
Hello, My husband and I are guardians of our 9-year-old grandson, who was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 4. We love him and are thankful for him, but he has been quite a handful for us. He is in 3rd grade this year and we have just started him back on his medication. He takes the generic form of Concerta

Hello I'm a Newbie
I can't believe I'm posting this. I, just recently (2 weeks) admitted my depression to family. It has gotten really dark. I had been taking meds for 10 years but came off them 3 months ago. I never admitted to the depression, just said it was anxiety and ADD, (BTW) Hmmm. Don't know if it took 3 months

Have you found that ADHD medication worsens anxiety?
I have an appointment with my general doctor next week to discuss starting a medication for ADHD. However, I'm concerned about the possibility of it making my anxiety symptoms worse. The one my therapist recommended I ask for is Vyvanse. Is anybody on medication for ADHD, and if so, which one, and what
