The everyday struggle with meds and doctors
I am currently taking concerta and I been getting an itch everywhere on my face after the medication wears off. It's really annoying. I might go back to adderall xr ig this continues.

I have a 6 year old boy with ADHD and ODD. He takes focalin xr and it has helped him a lot. I’ve noticed though that when it’s out of his system, he really has trouble communicating. For example, I could ask him a question and his answer will have absolutely nothing to do with what I asked. He sometimes

Hi everyone! The results are finally in! I decided a month after my son start Concerta 27mg to to the gene test to see if the drug is metabolizing in his system correctly. I am from Canada so the company I found is called BiogeniQ. The first week on Concerta I saw some changes but after that there

Concerns since starting Medication
Hello Community. Been a while since I have posted since I keep feeling like I should just give up. Anyway, I am here with some questions/seeking advice. In January, we started my daughter on Focalin XR 10MG. Since then here are some of the things we have noticed: -Increased emotions - When she gets

Hello to All
Hello, I've been just recently diagnosed with type 5 Limbic ADHD (and a lot of other types too lol) and I'm just starting the experimenting of what medications will work best for me and what won't. I also suffer from muscles back and neck pain, on top of really awful anxiety. I've just started taking

Quillivant xr and tachycardia
My daughter was diagnosed with atrial tachycardia when she was almost 2. She has been off of meds for about 4 years now with no episodes. She was just recently diagnosed with ADD and her so doctor prescribed the lowest dosage of Quillivant XR. Anyone have any experience taking it after being diagnosed

Just an update
So, we thought we had it all figured out with the Focalin XR, but after about 4 months, it began to loose its effectiveness and my son began experiencing more unpleasant side effects. We discovered that the Cyprohetadine or the combination of it and the Focalin was really making him miserable. An hour

Feeling down
My son has been on Focalin XR and Guanfacine ER for about four months. Things improved somewhat as the daily phone calls from the school stopped; however the incidents he has had seem to feel more dangerous. He tried to hurt another child at school on Friday and had to be picked up. His outbursts are

Daughter Diagnosed with ADHD, any tips/stories with similar situations are welcomed?!
My 6 year old Daughter just got diagnosed with ADHD(combined type). She doesn't have any behavior issues, she's a sweet, well mannered little girl. She does have trouble focusing at school, at home she does a little better as she is an only child but I cant say I struggle with her AT ALL. I'm very hesitant

Kid acts nutty at md office visits
I know this is part of her adhd and anxiety but this makes my anxiety go full throttle. My 11 y.o will need to have a tooth removed because it's not coming out on it's own and causing some issues. She went berserk at the thought of having it removed and she would seriously have to be sedated (can they

Feeling defeated
Well I posted about 5 months ago. My 9 year was on Adderall Xr at that time and tenex. We realized that the xr was giving him mood swings so we went back on the regular Adderall. The last 2 months my sons attitude has changed he has gotten very nasty and getting in trouble with other kids on the bus

Newbee parent of 11 y/o boy w/ Adhd combined type
Hi all! I am a single parent of an 11 year old boy with ADHD combined type. He currently takes 25mg of Focalin XR every morning. I would appreciate advice on what other parents are doing regarding problematic home behaviors. Within the last month he started pulling out his hair on his head and eyebrows

13 year old girl ADHD new to Adderall XR
My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD (inattentive) 3 years ago. She has an IEP and accommodations and was succeeding with some difficulty on this path until 8th grade. School became a struggle and her grades dropped fairly drastically. She just started Adderall XR 15 mg, taking half a pill. I'm wondering

New here and not sure which way to go
Hi! My 8 yr old daughter was diagnosed with ADHD, OCD, mild dyslexia and anxiety. The diagnosis was in place as of November 2017 but the school wanted to wait for her neurospysch eval instead of doing a Child Study team/IEP. Finally saw the neuropsych, got the report and they have quite a few recommendations

Focalin xr dosage change
We have now increased the dose to 30mg.. starting tomorrow. The lower dosages were doing absolutely nothing. I feel bad at times... I start to feel annoyed and upset when it's time for schoolboy be dismissed. It's like I have to hype myself up to deal with another evening of not listening, fighting
