talking to your doctor about changing dos | ADHD Information
I'm 21 years old and was recently diagnosed with ADD. I have been on adderall 15 mg TID for about a month now and it worked great at first but now I feel like I'm not taking anything at all. All my old symptoms are back now and I just feel the same way I did before taking the meds. I tried to talk to my PCP about it (she's the one who manages my meds) and she told me I need to give it more time. My psychologist however, told me the adderall was supposed to be titrated weekly until the optimal dose is reached and she knows that, yet she still thinks I need to give it more time. Everytime I talk to her about my meds, I feel like she thinks I'm a med seeker, but I'm not, I just want to get better. Anyway, my question is... has anyone had any similiar experiences? and if so, how did you deal with your doctor?PCPs often aren't experts on ADHD meds. You probably would do better talking to a psychiatrist.
