[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It takes 1 week, 2 weeks max to know if a stimulant is helping you focus and perform better. 
If it doesn’t help, your doctor tried a different one or two.
If none of them help, you have ASD. [/quote]
Wow. Thank you for this, I had no idea. I wish I’d known. I wrote the text directly above yours, and my doc definitely did not do this. I felt like it wasn’t quite right really early on (probably within that first week or two) and mentioned the possibility of trying something else, but he told me to stick with it, and suggested increasing the dosage multiple times, break apart the pills, make sure I wasn’t doing tasks at night (?). From neuropsych testing to, well, the final straw, was probably about five or six months, all on the same medication.[/quote]

Pediatricians will try the stimulant after a parent and teacher survey firm.

Adult GPs will want you to meet w a psychologist or psychiatrist first.

A full neuropsych would be overkill, but if it’s 100% covers by insurance and you have the wait time, sure. Otherwise get to a psychiatrist asap. [/quote]
