Yes, I am an addict of opioids, but I'm newly clean. I've been told repeatedly by people that can't do anything about it that I have ADHD (therapists, retired pdocs, observant friends/family, etc. I get the "Do you have ADHD?" "No" "I think you do" convo a lot).
I was put on a wait list for neuropsych testing but it's years long. Today I was talking to a pdoc (not mine) who said I should just try a stimulant as long as my bipolar is stable, and if my symptoms get better that's all the proof I need. No need to wait three years for an evaluation.
I talk to my NP tomorrow, do I just straight up ask "hey can I try an ADHD med?"
It's also the last time I talk to her because they're switching me to a psychiatrist. Should I wait to see the psychiatrist?
Idk how to go about this.
