That's what I am trying to do TheSadGirl... make my life count in what is really important to me and one part of it is to help my son get through this transition in life from school to full time work. It is not an easy one. I've looked at the market he's in an dnot having 2 years of work experience cuts down a lot on what he could apply for...

anyway yesterday my son got a prescription from his gp of 20 mg Vyvanse for ADHD. He's intending to wake up at 9 am and take it. I am hoping for a miracle. I know he is tired of not being able to get work done too. It was his idea, not mine, to ask for medication and if he and his doctor agree then it is fine with me. He got 2 weeks of a prescription and is asked to monitor his symptoms or anything else like mood changes that might come up.

I'd be interested to hear about experience with stimulants. Probably shoudl post something on the ADHD forum too...
