My psych is letting me try ADHD meds without getting neuropsych testing after all, which is great because that shit’s expensive. Wish me luck getting it filled with the shortage and everything. I really hope it helps! I’m tired of being overwhelmed all the time and unable to focus on what I want to focus on.

Update: Day one on Adderall 10mg - It’s a little too early to tell, but it might feel a little bit easier to focus on stuff. I don’t feel “wired” or anything, and I’m still getting hungry as usual. My heart might be beating a little faster, which I was told to expect.

    Pharmacist here with a couple suggestions to make your life easier.

    • ask your MD to give you your rx as a hard copy. Electronic prescriptions may not be transferable depending on state regulations. With a hard copy you can call arround to several local pharmacies to find one that has your dose in stock and then physically take the rx to them instead of asking your MD to send over a new electronic rx.
    • look into genetic testing. Genesight has income based costs that max out at $350 and will save you months to years of trial and error trying to find a med that works for you.
