Hi- I'm reaching out hopefully to those who might be able to point me in the right direction. I have a buddy, male, aged 52 who has been diagnosed in the past as ADHD and it really shows; he is so over the top wild, talks so fast he is difficult to understand and has many of the ADHD symptoms. Problem is he cannot find an MD to prescribe meds, typically stimulants/amphetamines which are partial treatment for ADHD. He is willing to go to therapy and work with a therapist, but when they suggest an MD that will prescribe meds, the MD will not do so since he has a substance abuse background. My concern is that if he is not treated he will, due to his 'hyperness' suffer a heart attack. Does anyone have any ideas about how to get this man off the gerbil wheel to find someone who will prescribe the proper medication for him? Many thanks for your help.
