If you have problems getting things done READ THIS
 

Since having gone to an md psychiatrist, and having him completely totally ignore everything I said, everything my sister said, everything my woman said, and having him say I was "bipolar" which is the absolute opposite of my symptoms and then give me a medication that half killed my ass when I tried it one time... then to call the guy and have him recommend I just take some more..

Thanks to being almost a carbon copy of my sister, and her being put on something that helped her immensely,

I've found medication that works for me. Works well.

I am focused, able to stay on task and get things done, think clearly, deal with one issue at a time and I am all around FUNCTIONAL.

I always believed ADHD was MADE UP and just an EXCUSE and BULLSHIT in spite of being diagnosed as a young child. Well. Here is where I now stand. I think ADHD is a diagnosis they throw at far too many people, but, in some cases it is VERY REAL.

For YEARS I have climbed walls every day wanting to do things that I need to do. I have known what needs to be done, but instead of doing these things, I would pace around going half crazy thinking about doing them. I would believe I was going to. I would lose focus and change tasks 100 times. I would be a nervous fucking wreck.

People thought I was lazy! People who had seen me in the past doing amazing things though I just "wasn't trying any more". In the past couple of years I started to think of myself as "defective" and I would say again and again "I don't know why I can not do anything.. I know how to do things, I have a lot of talent"

Knowing that you have the talent and knowledge but not knowing how to make yourself use it is like being in a prison cell. But you are holding the keys. But you can not will yourself to walk over and open the god damned door.

You need to research your symptoms and find help. You need to seek help, even if you are like me and you lived your whole life shunning the very idea of not doing everything yourself. I have learned that we can not ALWAYS do it ALL. You have to find out what is wrong with you and know if and when your doctor is FULL OF SHIT.

All of that said- You also need to know when a diagnosis is completely full of shit. You may just be use to being a lazy fuckhead. And you have to be very careful, for instance, if you really do find out something is wrong.

As an example, at first I allowed myself to start blaming this or that on ADHD. Well, if I let it just be "okay because I can't help it", I will never change.

You have to FACE what is wrong and be willing to work hard to change it - the medication is amazing because I have clarity, focus and am more able. But.

It is not going to build the road for me. It is not going to take the right path for me. Ability is nothing if I don't use it and work very hard to change my day to day habits and behavior.

Anything I don't do or that I do wrong, now that I am more able to focus, is still NOT okay, just because I have justification for it, now.

Sure I know WHY this that and another thing did or didn't happen now but it still has to be changed. If that makes sense. I am saying never lean on what is wrong with you.

That is some weak speech, congrats on your normalization ...

So what meds are you taking?

I had read that if you are not adhd and you take adderall (a mix of amph salts) it would give you a-lot of energy and a small high. . But if you have adhd, it makes you "normal"..

Someone like me found this to be exceedingly true and has been taking 10mg twice a day ... he needs 15mg XR but can only get 10mg instants :( But he is going back to a different doctor soon

Of course what *I* have been taking to help my adhd is completely legal without a scrip and it's something else :thumbsup

So what meds are you taking?

I bet he takes Adderall.

I'd be his issues would disappear with a proper Diet and Exercise.

BUT. do what you need to do.

"Life is Short, Play Hard"

Reading all of that just prevented me from getting things done.


Just saying....

you are going off the deep end with all your recent posts.

doesn't it give you negative sexual side effects? id rather not pay attention and be able to have sex

so are you going to act normal on GFY from now on? just try and conduct business and make some money ? no more personal drama posts?

That would be a nice Xmas present for all of us.

you don't need that crap.

i went to the doc because i couldnt focus on anything. he wanted to give me adderall.

i told them to fuck off and i started exercising, cut out refined sugar as much as possible, and took vitamin supplements magnesium, niacin, and fish oil in bulk.

problem solved.

leave that shit alone.

Oh boy.. two or three posts about personal shit and that is all I ever posted, right? Are you talking about the crazy posts I made when I use to drink a lot?

Fish/Coconut oil is supposed to be great for adhd.. Exercise is supposed to be really great for everything

You would probably be right .. read between the lines in my post .. I could be saying that without admitting it, possibly

It shrinks your dick down when it is not in use BUT when you do something with it, it ends up being rock hard and you cum harder than you ever have in your life. . "getting there" takes longer, too .. which is not really a bad thing

A family history of mental illness. Who ever would have guessed? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

A good night's sleep and regular exercise are two of the most important things

Every day I drink to celebrate another day of sobriety.... ummm... I mean, another day of drinking! Yeah, that's it... drinking... not sobriety at all. That was actually the opposite of what I was trying to say. I'll drink to that!
