So are doctors the only ones able to prescribe ADD drugs? I'm currently in a predicament as I need to wait 3 months before I can qualify for my province's health insurance program (I live in Toronto). And I believe even after that I'd be put on some waiting list to see one anyway. I was wondering if I could contact a psychiatrist directly, is this advisable? Must I be referred to one by a GP first? Should I see a therapist or a psychiatrist? I'm also at least mildly depressed. hajimewa fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Dec 24, 2010 |

Psychiatrists are doctors, they can prescribe whatever a GP can. If you're depressed, see a therapist. If you need medicine for it, they'll send you to a psychiatrist for it. A general practitioner can prescribe them too, but therapists and psychiatrists understand the disorders more. I don't have health insurance (with medical and mental disorder, I'm uninsurable), but I know sometimes health insurance companies need you to be referred to a psychiatrist by a general practitioner.

Awesome informative thread. I'm trying to read it through beginning to end, but not quite there yet, so sorry if this has been asked recently. A few questions. Do you ever feel really irritated at other people and snap at them when you can't focus on what they're saying? Or you can focus on them but you have a billion other thoughts going at you get upset at them for interrupting? Do you ever become physically uncomfortable because of mental restlessness? Kind of hard to explain, but you're having a particularly hard time focusing your thoughts and then your whole body feels fuzzy, antsy, or energized?

Only when I'm restricted from moving, like 2 hour long exams and such. It drives me nuts if I can't pace and it completely disrupts my thought process because all I can think of doing is getting out of wherever I'm at so I can move. I work my thoughts out better when I pace. I probably walk five miles a day or something ridiculous like that, just from pacing in my house. The few minutes I've been sitting here, writing this, I already need to get up and walk around. \/ oh god, hearing people chew

It's sometimes very difficult to focus on what someone is saying because some other rear end in a top hat is chewing gum loudly or some other thing like that. It bothers the poo poo out of me. I don't get upset with the person talking though, I get upset with the distraction. Noise cancelling headphones are a godsend in classes because I can put one in my ear and block out noise from a whole side of the room. quote:Do you ever become physically uncomfortable because of mental restlessness? Kind of hard to explain, but you're having a particularly hard time focusing your thoughts and then your whole body feels fuzzy, antsy, or energized? Not exactly. If my mind is allowed to wander it's great. If I desperately need to focus on something though, like writing a really loving long essay or dealing with complicated math that I don't fully understand, I start to feel like I'm physically exhausted trying to extend my focus. This feeling goes away immediately once I'm done with whatever it was. This killed my grades when I was a kid, I just blew off homework because I didn't want to do it. I could pass tests just fine, but I loving hate busy work because it's just constant focus.

Oh god the distractions! Last semester in my differential equations class there were these kids that sat either right next to me or behind me (I sit front and center just to get away from all the distractions, I can only concentrate with nobody in front of me) who were in the loving marching band and would play the loving drums with their hands or pencils on the desks. The first day of class they were sitting behind me and one of them was loving playing a bass drum line with his foot on my chair. I freaked right out at him - the crazy part is our teacher was from china and sometimes when these dudes would be just tapping away on their desks super loudly he'd stop lecturing, clear his throat while looking RIGHT AT THESE DUDES and say "OK NOW" in an attempt to get the little fuckers to shut the hell up but all these kids would do is giggle and keep right on with their annoying rear end beats. THE drat NERVE OF THESE KIDS!!

Oh man, I feel you guys. I have something really similar at work. I do the IT for a very small company all by myself(my boss just kinda vanished and the owners asked if I would like to take up the challenge, thank god I started with my recently).The manager, a good guy, has a tendency to just pop into my office and shoot an idea at me which would require my involvement to actually make it a reality. It's just in a "what if" kind of way, to check if it's possible, and he often has good ones too! But sometimes he gets these epiphanies more often than usual. I already have so much stuff to keep track of and maintain. I try to write everything down that crosses my path and structure it to "work/think in a straight line" BUT OH GOD THERE HE IS AGAIN FOR THE 6TH TIME IN 2 HOURS RAWRGNASHBLAH STOP BLOWING OVER THE HOUSE OF CARDS THAT IS MY MIND.  And that lady of finance. You are not the boss of me aeraghSDH stop trying to control what I do I have a SCHEDULE for a reason you ain't the boss of me.   But they all mean well and know about it so I feel like a jerk afterwards, which I should - it's an explanation not an excuse! Question for you guys regarding dreams: do some of you also have the idea that Escher is the director and script writer of your night time? And if so, and you just started your meds, do you now feel like you can experience and remember them so much better? Because christ, seriously. What, the, hell.

If you have an actual office with a door, maybe you can have a closed door policy?

I don't understand why they could get the Wellbutrin in one day, but adderall takes 8 days. Is it because its a scheduled drug? Can someone give me an idea of what I would feel like? I know thats a vague, stupid question, but I've been this way all my life. Its going to throw me if I change drastically. The idea of being able to sit down and do homework for a full 30 minutes without getting up and pacing makes me feel weird, let alone the stuff I can't even comprehend happening. Adderall is fairly immediate (for a medication) isnt it? A couple hours after I take it I should notice the effect? I sound like a virgin on prom night  edit: What the hell am I going to do without my pacing?!?

It's a pain in the rear end and why it takes a week. It's usually easier to find another pharmacy that already has it in stock.

As for your medication: if possible I would make your first day in the weekend. Get well rested, skip the coffee, take the dose you were told to take. You will notice the effect when it happens and I doubt it will feel unpleasant. If it's even remotely close to how it feels like with my Dex, it's like a missing gear getting put back in for the first time in your life.  I would advice the weekend because you will need to get a feel for the timing. You need to find out how long it works for you and how easy/hard it is to sleep in the evening. Weekend is usually pretty harmless in that regard. Oh, and be careful with whatever other substances you may take(alcohol, coffee etc). IIRC, some meds may give increased superficial tolerance while others multiply the effect of whatever you take. For me, one beer turned into four and as if those were drank in the time span of that one single drink.

If they know you're going to be getting regularly, they may be able to keep it in stock for you. Can't hurt to ask.

By the way, I had major issues with insomnia till I got onto Adderall. Granted, you will have to wait at least a week till your body adjusts, but see how it treats your sleeping patterns. Just make sure to take it early as you can if it's XR, and if it's not, try to take your last dose by 4:00.

I was diagnosed with ADD years ago - but never did anything about it. Well, I went to therapy. That was about it - and it helped. Make lists, create a routine, etc etc. But I am at the point where none of that works and it is actually creating problems at work and at school. I'm in my 30s but attending grad school. The doctor I see now is different than the one I saw when I was diagnosed about 8 years back. What is the best way to approach this with my medical doctor? Not that he is going to think a 35 year old woman with no history of drug use is trying to score drugs to have fun, but still, I am not even sure how to bring it up without making it seem like this is my goal.

I'd just bring it up and see what he says. If it helps, make a little list of what you've done to try to battle it. And if you feel that this doc isn't taking it seriously, won't help you, etc. don't be afraid to ask for a referral or a recommendation to a Psychiatrist or someone else who can help you.

I went to my regular doctor, and just put "personal" as the reason I needed to speak with him. I was worried about the same thing, especially with the stigma of "study drugs" in college. It wasn't a big deal at all. The nurse that led me out said something along the lines of "  this ain't personal we get this every day" while laughing her head off.It's really weird for you, but it's entirely normal for your doctor. Doctor-patient interactions can be awkward, but at the end of the day sometimes you just have to spring stuff on them.

I'm finding that taking 40mg of adderall xr a day is like the perfect amount. I get very slight side effects (feel a slight increase in heart rate) but I'm able to focus and function. The problem is that it's double the amount I have right now for the next month. How should I approach the (walk in clinic) doctors about this since I don't have a regular doc yet? In my assessment I can go as high as 40mg with some other drugs for the anxiety but the last doctor I saw pulled the "you should try to function instead of going on disability but I can't help you with meds which would make you function enough to have a job so lol catch 22!!~" I'm prepared to go in there and be a hardass about it but I do not want to be seen as a drug addict. I've only been on 3 different medications and this one is expensive as all gently caress but if I need it until I can get in with a GP then I feel it's something I gotta do. In better news writing is a bit easier when I'm not off meds since I can slow down and not speed through everything out of boredom. I made a good 90$+ the one day but I can definitely see the days on my goofy calender where I didn't take my meds since I ran out too early...and I have star stickers to show how many articles I write in that day to keep me on track ahhaha. I loving LOVE STICKER CHARTS FOR JOBS

I'm still on 30mg Adderall XR and it just literally doesn't do anything anymore. I get maybe thirty minutes of slight improvement, then return to normal, and spend the rest of the day enjoying a bunch of side effects with no increase in focus.

OK - so now I have a question for the thread. When is it appropriate to tell your boss about ADHD/CAPD? Here's my scenario: Despite unemployment being at a record high in the US, I magically land a full time job. A permanent, full time job in my field (Software Testing and Development) with an interesting product (which I can't share - I signed an NDA), a good location, neat people (as far as I can tell), and more money than I have ever made in my entire life. This is also a job where I could see me having an actual future, and I could seriously grow my programming skills here. Consequently, I don't want to gently caress it up. Because in the past, jobs get hosed up because of my ADHD. This would be the usual chain of events: I get job, I'm happy, and they're happy. I do really well with the n number of responsibilities that they give me. So, they increase those responsibilities. Eventually, at n + 5, it gets to be too much, my self-taught coping skills can no longer keep up, and I mess up my job in some tragic manner. Reprimands come, I get talked to about how disorganized I am (ADHD) and how I don't listen (CAPD), I try to do better, I can't and then I'm asked to resign and/or get fired. So for the past few years, I've done contract and temp work. So if I gently caress up, I know that I'm only in the position for a little while, and then I'm out of there. One thing in my favor now: Now I have solid diagnoses of both the ADHD and the CAPD, and at least the ADHD is being adequately treated by . I don't want to risk this job by committing the invariable fuckup, and then when being disciplined I claim ADHD/CAPD issues. However, I also don't want to risk discrimination because of these if I talk to my new lead/HR about them right when I start. At least I don't start until January 5th, so I'm just relaxing until then. But still, this is a concern.

You should talk to HR as soon as possible to get a paper trail in place, and consult a lawyer to figure out what your legal situation is. Other than that, it kinda depends on your boss and the local corporate culture. ETA: Also, if they do discriminate against you because of an ADA-covered condition, you will be able to live comfortably off what you can sue them for. Again, talk to a lawyer. ultrafilter fucked around with this message at 02:17 on Dec 31, 2010 |

Some companies are real shits about ADA paperwork being filed within so many days (or maybe this is just my hellish right-to-work/anti-worker rights state) of being sent to you so make sure that your clinicians have appointments lined up to work on the paperwork for you . There's no need to tell your direct supervisor the exact nature of your disability beyond "I need to get some ADA paperwork filed with HR" if there is HR/actual infrastructure (directly asking about the nature of the disability hits a minefield of disclosure protections), and if they don't provide you with reasonable accommodations or discriminate against you please spend your settlement funds wisely.  Some disabled people misunderstand FMLA/ADA protections (see it as a break rules for free card) and how it can be applied to their personal case but it comes down to whatever you work out within the laws' framework (if your employer thinks one day/X hours of excused absence a month for medical appointments is a reasonable thing then so be it, etc.) Some Google Result posted:Can an employer make me have a medical exam or ask questions about my disability?

You know, earlier in the thread, someone asked if anyone else had a high sex drive. I most certainly do. The worst thing is, the same day I actually have sex, a couple hours later, I'm thinking about sex again. It's rather ridiculous. Also, does anyone else dwell about things that they've done wrong? i don't mean things that you've done, say, today, but things you screwed the pooch on years ago, that frankly, don't even matter anymore? That's part of the reason I can't sleep at night, is that when I go to bed, I spend HOURS thinking about poo poo I screwed up in the past. I mean, poo poo I did when I was 12. I'm 32 years old. I'm really making an effort to move past this problem, but I can't help but obsess about mistakes I've made. Anyone else have that problem?

I go as far back as 14, but before that I have essentially no memories. Old relationships (i.e. broke up six years ago) still keep me up. I'm over them, but the memories replay constantly. Any bad decision I've ever made swirls my brain until I pass out. Thank god for knockout drugs.

I hate that I can't remember the names of the places I've lived or what grades I were in while living in each town. I would love to remember poo poo that wasn't absolutely horrible for a change too.Angry Diplomat posted:I'm noticing this, myself. I'm still on 30mg Adderall XR and it just literally doesn't do anything anymore. I get maybe thirty minutes of slight improvement, then return to normal, and spend the rest of the day enjoying a bunch of side effects with no increase in focus. It's driving me completely loving insane because now that I know what it's like to think clearly I can't handle being stuck back in this mental fog Oh god yes this is the worst thing about the XR stuff. For some reason the releasing mechanism just doesn't seem to work well. It sucks not being able to eat, sleep, or focus long enough to do some work (need mo' money for rent dammit) yet be taking 20mg. I've heard somewhere that crushing the little beads inside the capsule might make it instant release but I don't know if I want to get into that sort of thing.

It seems to get really bad somewhere in the mid-teens, and I only have a handful of brief images from any time in my life before puberty. It kind of scares the poo poo out of me, because I got married 3 years ago, and I'm already forgetting details of the wedding, like the minister's face or who the bridesmaids were. I can't even remember my vows Aculard posted:Oh god yes this is the worst thing about the XR stuff. For some reason the releasing mechanism just doesn't seem to work well.

I've heard somewhere that crushing the little beads inside the capsule might make it instant release but I don't know if I want to get into that sort of thing. I seriously considered taking a double-dose this morning, but I figured that popping 60mg of amphetamines without consulting a doctor was potentially not the best choice.
