I told her I've tried a lot of things (including controlled substances like Klonopin) and I just don't feel they were helpful. I am about ready to just give up on trying to face it with meds. Let's hope for a good response to the medicine. Has anyone here had it before? Curious to your experience seeing as it's actually a blood pressure med. Just doing a quick search online, apparently is has been used in migraine prophylaxis and that may be an added benefit if it works out for me.
I tried it for about a very short while since it's supposed to help ADHD without risk of mania/psychosis. I don't remember having any side effects but I don't think it helped with what the doc said it would help with so I stopped it. I hope it helps you
