What to ask for ? | ADHD Information

Share

Brand new here. Quickly, I am 41 was diagnosed with ADHD and "personality disorder". Ha, i wanted to kill something!! Anyway, my Dr. tried at least 8 or 9 different meds. on "the lab rat", (me). Lexapro was wonderful and has probably saved my life . However, he kept switching my ADD script because i hated every different thing he had me on. In the meantime, a friend gave me phenterminre and WALLA !!! My focus, patience, thinking were immediately A-ONE. I would actually amaze myself when responding to a ? I would give the answer that I usually thought of while laying in bed 6 hrs. later. When i was in former Doc's office he had a display for adderall. I asked for some and he said "i don't prescribe stimulants". What !!?? You have thse ad outside ..blah ... Question I see new Doc. in 3 hrs. I can't continue phentermine, Can I ? Do i lie and tell her I was on adderall or some other type meds before? Or do i lay it all out ? I have felt what it's like to be "nomal" and WILL NOT go back to my personal hell. Help? 

I feel you. I was exactly where you are at.First of all if your doc. wont prescribe stimulent's---then find one who does, if you think phentermene
worked well, just wait till you are try'd on the most commen add/adhd
medication's there are. My advice is to stay away from riddlen/concerta
and if phentermene worked for you, then dexidren or adderol will work the best for you. It is a life changing expierence.No matter if a docter turn's you down,-do not give up,because that is just his opinion thee are other people with just as much education,and more expierence that will not hesitate to put you on the medication.never give up!!!

TIP'S
#1.Never tell a doc. about previous drug use.( that makes them nervous)
#2.Never request a certin type of medication.(that also makes them nervous)
