If i think i have Inattentive ADD that means i probably do huh

Wouldn't you know it that I tested positive for ADHD inattentive type. It didn't take long for him to fish out that I performed very poorly in high school, see how I would hyperfoucus only on things of interest, and that I was still out in a zone somewhere at times.

We started with Straterra, and some Concerta, a.k.a. time released Ritalin. There were unwanted side effects with the Straterra so I stuck with the Concerta, and I take some Klonopin for anxiety.

It takes a lot of guts as some anonymous person to jump on the Internet and tell you these things but I feel like I have some stability in my life as a result of just taking the first steps. I can do more things at once. My ability to concentrate has improved and I'm better at home and at work.

There are risks with taking these medications. All of them. I'm sure some are still undocumented for all I know, alas that's speculation of course ;-) They are very bad on the liver, or at least ritalin or aderall is. I drink plenty of water to compensate for it all the same. I exercise more. I can stay on track more. I had to accept that my brain chemistry was in a state where these medications helped. Before my stepdaughter I was just another skeptic about ritalin and medication for these things, but then I've lived with her struggles and learned that I was seeing some of my past at the same time.

It just takes courage to stand up, go get testing, and be honest about the process. The narcartics are abused since ritlian is just a few molecules from being leagalized coccain. In my body thing start to focus, but in the wrong body it can be an addictive drug and it is sold and abused as one.
