I've been diagnosed with anxiety disorder, ADHD and Major Depressive disorder...I'm in medications like escitalopram,Aripiprazole and Methylphenidate hydrochloride but still there's not much improvements...what to do now?

My son tried methylphenidate but wasn’t eating all day on it and his growth stalemated so we took him off. He tried Guanfacine but that didn’t seem to impact his symptoms all that much. Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks!

The NHS consultant here is suggesting Methylphenidate (Ritalin) next and I feel like we need to try everything else before that....We have not had any investigations beyond an ultrasound, and when I mentioned biofeedback therapy he said he was too young, but it looks like the London hospitals offer this

Here there's no many options about ADHD medication and other then methylphenidate there are only non stimulant medications. You guys that are from the US with a huge amount of medication available and also decades of researches on ADHD, what do you think about Ritalin?

Methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta) 2. Amphetamine (Adderall) 3. Dexmethylphenidate (Focalin) 4. Lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse) 5. Dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine) The five most common non-stimulant medications are: 1. Atomoxetine (Strattera) 2. Guanfacine (Intuniv) 3. Clonidine (Kapvay) 4.

My 13 year old has recently be prescribed methylphenidate for his ADHD. He’s not hyperactive but has really struggled with school over the past few years. He has trouble staying focused and concentrating and his grades are very poor.

Two or three times a day, I have been taking 20 mg immediate-release (not time released) methylphenidate for roughly 30 years. The last prescription I filled was at a Walgreens on March 15, 2024. It has been many years since I had a problem finding this pill.

It's as if my amygdala is in complete control until my frontal cortex wakens, triggered by the Lorazepam and Methylphenidate.

Hello, I'm knew here but not to healthunlocked. I've been on the Chronic Migraines and Fibromyalgia Forum for probably 20 years now.To cut a long story short, through seeking help for my daughter it was discovered that both I and her have ADHD. I'm 46 and she's 9. We have both just had our first week

For many reasons that I shall not bore you with I didn't realise the Methylphenidate was making my sleep worse too until now, or rather 5 am this morning as I was not sleeping. I have an extensive history of insomnia bur it does vary greatly.

I am now trying methylphenidate and it is milder, but my face numbness is still there. Multiple diagnostic procedures (and a lot of money) later there is no real explanation of this issue and the only advice I get is "if this bothers you, stop taking the medication".

We tried adderall xr for awhile to no avail then switched to methylphenidate er which has seemed to make somewhat of an impact. He seems to be more attentive in class and improving in that area. My concern has turned to his social skills. This area has always been a challenge for him.

Pregabalin 350mg, Quetiapine 500mg, Sertraline 200mg, Methylphenidate XL 36mg & Lorazepam 1mg.

My 9yr old is on a low dose fast acting methylphenidate twice a day and it’s not cutting it anymore, honestly I don’t know if it ever really was but he didn’t get bad side effects so I was willing to deal with it. I wanted to look into jornay and wondered if anymore has tried it for their kids?

Bonus question - anyone also take methylphenidate? I know I have to wait to take additional meds/supplements on Thyroxine, but i usually take methylphenidate first thing so that i have a functioning brain for work.

I have been on methylphenidate in different forms, Concerta, and Ritalin. Currently, I am on a 60mg dose of Ritalin (IR). I started therapy, more specifically Mindfulness-Integrated CBT, 3 months ago. After reading about it, I felt like it could help me.

I now take Methylphenidate for my ADHD and have not been depressed since. it's not a panacea. but life is a whole lot more productive and much calmer!

hi I have now completed a week on 18mg slow release methylphenidate and to be honest I have not noticed anything different other than that I’ve had a really bad week with my anxiety!

However, I was recently also diagnosed with severe adult ADHD, which I’m now taking medication for (methylphenidate /Concerta XL slow release).
