Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Are you medicated, seeing a psychiatrist?
I am seeing a psychiatrist, but I don't think I'm on the right meds. Wellbutrin for anxiety and melatonin to sleep. He also is a bit of a holistic naturalist and keeps recommending Enlyte medical food, which sounds like some bullshit but I dunno. I think I need a better doctor who will just give me the stimulants.
Having both a wife and child with ADHD you need to try different meds to figure out what works.
In spite of the fact that is it is basically guaranteed that it is an inherited genetic trait the meds that work for them are different and even from different categories.
Pretty common actually. Some meds are better suited for kids or for adults, due to various factors, not just biology.
