[quote=Anonymous]I'm glad you're reconsidering medication, OP! Keep in mind that a cocktail of meds might be the answer. That can dull some of the side effects around appetite. Often a combo includes a stimulant for inattention (Adderall, Ritalin) plus a mildly sedating drug for hyperactivity (Intuniv). Stimulants can mess with appetite and sleep, but the Intuniv balances that a bit. You'll have to experiment for a bit and it can take some time to find the right combo. But these meds work. Speaking as someone with ADHD, it's like being stuck in mud. You try harder and it just spins your wheels and makes you frustrated. Thinking that you're stupid takes a huge toll on your life and makes you less motivated to work on the right things. The medication turns everything into flat road and I can actually move. I don't love that I need these drugs. But I wouldn't decline insulin if I developed diabetes, so why not address this medical condition? [/quote]
