newly diagnosed and one week on meds | ADHD Information

Share

I'm new at this.  44 and just recently diagnosed with ADD but I think I've known for years - just trying to do all of the normal healthy natural stuff before giving in to meds.  I just started concerta 36mgs. Last week.  The first three days I was so encouraged but I am feeling some breakthrough sadness and depression.  The meds give me a little energy but I dont care about doing anything like I did in those first three glorious days.  I also think I may have the flu as other around me have but and not sure if those symptoms are not from the Concerta as well.  Just low-level flu-like symptoms.  Should I skip my dose today to see if the symptoms let up?

Thanks everyone.
