Seems like you are on the right track and you have a doc that is right for you. That is a lot to be thankful for. I am glad things are going well for you. It is nice to hear good reports. By for now.

The headaches stopped today, so about 5 days worth once I went off the adderall. As for the ginko it took about 2 weeks to kick in. The skullcap worked instantly and continues to work better the more I use it. I woke up hyper today and it slowed me…

Hi Candice, I believe alternative all natural medications are wonderful if it works for you. I offend times do not have the patience to wait a month or so for it to kick in. I do admire people who research these meds and pursue all natural alternati…

Candice - Just because you don't NOTICE any side effects, it doesn't mean there aren't any. I'm a skeptic of non-traditional ADHD therapies simply because they aren't regulated and you really don't know what you're getting. Could be sugar or some ot…

I decided to stop taking adderall, I weaned off it slowly, but I am still getting headaches everyday. I've been off 4 days now. Anyone know how long the heachaches will last? I stopped because I kept getting even more forgetful than I am already. Wh…

My Dr. appointment is Monday. I finally made an appointment because I am so sick of being irritated with my kids! Your story is making me hopeful! My two year old started saying "I'm trying to focus!" lol

Mr Dr just upped my adderall from 10mg to 20mg. I took my 1st pill Wed. The dry mouth is getting pretty bad I keep making these mouth motions like an old man with no teeth because my mouth is so dry. Also I take karate and the sweating is awful. I'm…

It's pretty amazing. I remember what that felt like. I wanted to cry tears of joy for weeks. I remember saying, "THIS is how the rest of the world lives!!!" It was like putting on eyeglasses after a lifetime of coping with poor vision. It was a fant…

Congrats on feeling better! I was on vyvanse (adderall derivitive) last year and the first week was amazing! I had to quit, though, after underlying high blood pressure was found and Vyvanse isn't safe to take with hypertension. So, I'm now unmedic…

Candice - You may want to talk to your doctor. It's possible the dosage is a bit too high or that you're taking it too late in the day. When I first started taking meds, I had more insomnia than I do now. I still have some big sleeping issues but th…

This will be my 3rd day on adderall and the last 2 nights I have not been sleeping well at all. It takes me a while to go back to sleep because the meds wear off and my head won't stop thinking and then I wake up an hour later. It's been awful and I…

Thanks I have found myself sipping water through out the day so far. I feel like it is wearing off some already, about 4 hours later. Will the effects last longer the longer I am taking it? As for the caffeine I noticed myself cutting down already.…

My dr prescribed me adderall yesterday and I took my first one this morning. I am almost ready to cry I'm so happy! I am not overwhelmed and irritated. My kids interupt me and I'm fine with it. I'm fine with it, that is so big for me. I was getting…
