ADHD Medication after 2 years

In this video I answer the questions:
- Do I still use meds
- Positives of meds
- Negatives of meds

Vyvanse changed my life in every aspect I went 30 years without knowing I had ADHD it felt like I was in a room with 1000 people talking and now that I'm on the medication I'm just alone to myself in that room being able to focus on what I need to do

Thanks for sharing your experience and for being so open-minded.

[@Jada_RE]

I haven't touched my ritalin meds in about a year now. Bad reactions. Also not keen on trying other stimulants when already predisposed to jitters. So its been a journey of figuring it out the "hard way" how to manage ADHD, and I've found so many resources (now you) that help in that way. There's things that meds just can't "teach" or overcome. And those lessons are way more lasting (and transformative imo) than what a pill can offer

[@quinnco9]

Have you considered/tried non-stimulants? Strattera/atomoxetine, Wellbutrin/bupropion, and a few others. I had to try four stimulants (including Ritalin) to find one I liked, and I’m considering atomoxetine at some point. I fought the hard way for years-I recommend CBT strategies, focusing on visual cues, etc. ADHD meds fixed nothing on their own, nor did “learning” new techniques, but the meds have enabled me to practice the strategies and turn them into habits. I’ve also learned a lot from Dr. Russell Barkley. Regardless, I wish you the best of luck! 🍀

Hlo bro can you hlp

[@naturally_rob]

Well, research somewhat supports what you're suggesting. At least my understanding of reading them is that ADHD usually cannot be fully treated by either medication, therapy, or skill/ADHD coaching alone. A combination of them holds the best outcome for long-lasting impact, though the importance of medication is sometimes overstretched, it still stands as being the most effective treatment for ADHD. Independent reviews are in debate on to what extent, but mostly all come to the conclusion that the more severe the ADHD, the more critical medication with other treatment options becomes.

[@Danteburnett]

Been on vyvanse for about a week. Its crazy its just been helping do the things ive been wanting to do but something was always holding me back. Like walks with my dog, making breakfast for my family etc.

[@derjjcrafterjj5456]

Yeah the first couple of months were awesome on Vyvanse but with time the positiv effects stopped and i got many side effects like feeling a comedown, feeling depressed and nervous in the evening etc. Be careful try not to take it daily

What a coincidence lol I found your original video today because I had anxiety taking my first dose of Adderall. And now I stumbled on your two year follow up!

[@nikitaw1982]

How is it going?

[@Fossilfighters123]

@@nikitaw1982 I just started taking it two days ago. My first day was a low dose of 5mg, and I felt calmer for about half an hour, but then went straight back to normal after that. So yesterday I took 10mg and wasn’t sure if it was working, but half an hour in, suddenly things went quiet and I noticed my leg stopped needing to shake. So i was like…. let me try to do some work! and was able to work for about 5 hours straight before the medication wore off. It was great!

[@Eryniell]

I think what people have to keep in mind, is that the meds don't "fix" adhd, they are more like crutches...and for some they can act more like wheelchairs...for others it just helps a little, depending on the person, their needs and reactions to the medications, their lifestyle, job choices(if they can work) and whatever comorbidities they might have (some can't even take adhd meds cause it could threaten their bodies, like when having heart problems. So yeah, definitely not a "one size fits all" kinda deal

[@alexl92]

Started taking l-tyrosine. So true about exposure to other creative people every day sometimes being enough to feel super motivated and productive. They do joke about ADD - if you have been procrastinating about a project, hire someone to watch you do it. You’ll be done in 2 hours. On the days I’m alone with my work, I def need stimulants. Coffee makes me sleepy, yes some buzz, but not enough energy. Too sensitive to prescription drugs. Tyrosine feels the niche. They say 500-1500 mg a day. I find 150 in the morning and the same at lunch is enough for me, but I due process drugs way too intensely.

[@macdisciple]

I’m 61. It recently became clear to me I am ADHD. Its so obvious, explains so much, and yet it never occurred to anyone. I think because I was trying to overcome so many other challenges. I’m looking forward to seeing what meds might do. I’ll do well enough without them but I’m still curious.

I really like your videos bro 👍👍 For me I started Vyvanse and currently I am on my way to college and in my opinion it has changed me a lot. I think it has changed me for the good, I am able to focus on school, I am motivated to really do anything. Although there are drawbacks to using this medication, before I used to struggle with anxiety and panic attacks, but I feel I have slowly been able to control my anxiety for them most part while on the medication. There are also times where I don't need the medication like if I am taking a break day or going to social gatherings. But overall my experience with this stimulant has helped me since middle school, and hopefully I will be able to slowly get off of it once I get older, but as of right now I am locked in. 👍

So my research on ADHD follows only Russell burkerkly, I'm probably spelling his name wrong. So pretty biased since im following only one researcher, i would say, so take with a grain a salt and do more research. From what i remember him talking about, ADHD is the most treatable developmental disorder with meds i believe, idk if i got the quote right tho. The quote i believe comes from a presentation on youtube to parents and how to approach ADHD i think its called like 30 things to know about adhd or something. He has is own KZbin channel is making videos once a week or month about the state of research papers and with, i think, the goal of putting all the presentations he's made on KZbin since he has now retired. Just thought i would put that info here.

[@Trick1e]

i found out working with people was hugely helpful for me. i used to distance myself so i won't let them down and do my work alone at the last minute. ironically for me it's the perfect anchor to be productive. also studying at home - huge mistake. honestly the more active i am the better i do. so don't be afraid to try new things and see were it leads you =)

I am very similar, I tell people concerta helped me so much! Concerta helped me figure out how not to need concerta haha! While ok it, I was able to read, and research about ADHD and many holistic approaches and environmental changes that could help me succeed better in life. So I weaned my self off and stayed in fish oils and my new way of living :) so I am glad it exists for sure!!

I know that I have adhd since preschool. When hormones became a thing, I started short working meds to get trough school work. Quit them at 18 but absolute needed them again at 25. Atm on a combo of 2 slow release ones. Concerta, 8h. And than to get trough stuff after dinner I got the option of EQUASYM. Official slow release methylphenidate is not an option for adults with adhd where I live. I wonder if they ever tried rebounding 4x a day.

[@iam-pf4ob]

you are so cute. i'm looking into medication and it occurs to me that it's also not normal to be completely calm and focused all the time for anyone regardless of neurotype. at this point, im just hoping i get more positive days than negative days

been on Adderall ir for 12 years now 30 2x a day usually take 1 though. I smoke and drink a lot of monsters can barely do homework for 20 mins but can play video games for 10 hours a day or read a mystery book for two hours before bed if I don't take it I'm a zombie but most nights i go to bed at 4am. of course i don't tell my doctor this because what would I do without my Adderall?? no joke 12 years

[@derjjcrafterjj5456]

Trust me your life will change in a matter of months! Try it. Just try to not take it for 1 Month, the first week is hard, then it gets easy

[@xzaviorbrough9362]

Gang it sounds like you've been putting your "Adderall energy" into the wrong things. Especially smoking can cause you to become lazy, which it seems you've become full on lazy, and need to start being disciplined and stop smoking. That's a first step, and chill on the energy drinks. What does your diet look like, gut to brain health is very real. I say this all out of kindness.
