Thank you so so much!! When you started ADD meds did you feel like you could stick to something and follow through? Did you notice changes that day or did it take time? I'm really hoping I can eventually just try the meds to see if they do help. If they don't then ok... on to the next thing. I really feel like personally I have ADD. I've been researching for a while now and I have only seen 1 psychiatrist other than the one that did my test, but I guess because I was referred to him, he recommended a trial, but my psychiatrist was persistent she didn't plan to try it and wanted to keep my meds the same. She suggested routine and exercise.
