Struggling to Find the Right Medication

how many medications did you have to try before finding the one that helped you. I'm on my 4th one and nothing has helped. I can't do stimulants and it seems like there is a lot of those so least I got those out of the way.

I had to go through six different medications all with different doses too. I'm now on Adderall and 8ts working great for me. Only part I don't like is the fact that it wears off around three and then I'm extremely tired and my ibs comes swinging in.

why don't you try a medication that doesn't wear off? There are medications that stay in your system for 24 hours .

i'm still trying to find something 😪 i didn't do well with adderall or vyvanse but concerta is a stim that, at the very least, doesn't do anything negative for me?? but i'm also on strattera at the same time and lemme tell u that for me at least strattera isn't able to get the job done but it does A LOT of heavy lifting

I cant take stimulants but have been on strattera for like 18 yrs without a problem. Stims is the biggest category so it should be easier from here out.

same here I can't take stimulates so that takes a lot of medication off the board.
