MTC/Thyroid
Hi all, 5 years after thyroidectomy due to MTC I'm having the most awful episodes with racing heart, chest tightness, tingling in extremities, dizziness, nausea and a sort of giddy feeling. Had ECG and heart was fine, BP also good. GP thought it was anxiety and prescribed Xanax for the short term. I

ADHD Medication Costs
Is anyone else seeing big swings in medication costs month to month? I try not to stress over the price of medications because I consider them to be necessities. They help my son feel better and as a result, our family time is more peaceful on most days. Instead of stressing over the price, I tell

Benzos
Just wondering what the consensus is here on the long term use of one of the benzodiazepines such as klonopin, Ativan or Xanax for anxiety and depression. If you have experienced favorable or unfavorable and at what dosage. I find them very helpful but I know the threat of addiction. Any thoughts?

Focus on Others Today
The horrors for the people in Ukraine deserve our deep prayers and thoughts. While many who are NOT in Ukraine "suffer" with anxiety and/or depression, there come certain times when others need our focus. Many here have meds to "maintain" a calmer level. The people in Ukraine have NO MEDICATIONS now

Depression and grief 🥲
Hello everyone on here. I’ve been feeling so freaking down and depressed lately it’s been a battle. Feel like I’m fighting a heavy weight boxer, and I can’t seem to get out of his way. I know my brothers passing was, and is affecting me, but I really wanna feel better for myself and my little girl

Starting Zoloft and a new job... when to take adderall again?
Hey yall! So I’ve been taking Adderall XR (15mg) and prescribed IR to take when needed for adhd (inattentive). The combo works well for me but my psych put me on Zoloft to get a handle on my depression. We tried wellbutrin which felt like magic but I was getting some of the serious/rare side effects

Inattentive ADD - trying to find right medication - stimulants make her defiant and avoid schoolwork, nonstimulants haven’t been successful
My 9yo daughter has inattentive ADD and we are struggling to find the right medication. I homeschool as well - so I see for myself how the different meds manifest. After daytrana patch (or adderall XR at a different time) - refuses to do schoolwork, is defiant to me and is rude to her little sister

Feeling confused
Recently diagnosed with adult ADHD-inattentive type. I was previously treated for depression by a nurse practitioner with no big difference in mood and constant daily mood swings. I just saw a psychiatrist and after evaluation she believes I have adhd and my mood swings only happen when I am very overwhelmed

New Member with ADHD
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed 3yrs ago at age 49. My Drs kept putting me on anti anxiety or anti depression medicines for years without any success. Finally sent me to a therapist who diagnosed me with ADHD. I was prescribed Adderall XR and it made such a difference. My husband was especially happy.

Adderall causing anger or sadness?
Hi, our 5 year old son was just diagnosed with ADHD and we are in the process of finding a medication for him that works. Has anyone noticed if Concerta/Adderall brought on more mood swings, anger or low self-esteem? We feel like there was a very noticeable change once we started med[i]s but want to

Are stimulants suppose to be temporary or lifelong?
When I was on Concerta XR I ended up at the highest dosage and it did nothing for me every step of the way. I then got on Adderall 10mg IR and it was amazing for me! I ended up building a tolerance I guess because it went from lasting 6 hours to lasting 3 hours. My psychiatrist changed my medication
