Drugs can only do so much. They are not the answer, only an assistance. You can try other meds but you have to attack things head on sometimes on your own. There is no easy way to do things, and your best rewards are the ones that you accomplish on your own.
My fortune cookie statement for the day.
I'm new around here and I'm not sure if this subject has been covered before or not but I'd sure like some direction. I've been on 45 mg. Adderall/day since November of last year, and it just doesn't seem to be working anymore. When I first started this medication, I thought this must be the wonderdrug I've been searching for my whole life! I was a lousy student in school and attempted three different times to go to college but ended up quitting, putting my husband and I in debt for school loans-that we have still not finished paying off, 9 years later. So I get adderall and think "EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE-YAY!" for the first time in months my house was clean and my checkbook was balanced. But that was then...you should see me now. I just barely finished my second semester in school and wondering what I am going to do about the spring-I don't like my major anymore, I'm beginning to think that I ought to just contemplate my naval for my career-can I do anything else? I called the Army and got very excited about all the possibilities and then the recruiter told me that I'd have to get off my meds. and I don't know if I can do that..they may not be working like they used to but I'm afraid of what kind of freaky flake I'd be without them.
Thanks for listening to me vent...I'd appreciate any ideas. I've tried Strattera, all it does is piss me off and make me sleep ALL DAY LONG. I can't do that again.
Have you tried welbutrine or Effexor?
