I was diagnosed as a child in the 70's. My foster parents didn't think medication was necessary. Fast forward to the current era. I tried non stimulant medicine and hated the way I felt. My creativity, my get-up-and-go had got up and left. I discontinued the medicine. While there are aspects of my ADD that I can be mindful of there are so many other parts of this diagnosis that have become part of me. Things that could have been worked on earlier in life. My husband will point out traits that I never even thought about but apparently are troublesome. He is astounded that some of these so called negative traits don't even cross my radar.
So, at this point in my life when many of these traits are so ingrained is there any hope that any medication can help? |
