I saw my T last week after he got back from vacation. During the time he was gone, I saw a new pdoc (who I really like!) and was put on Adderall to start. Being put on Adderall has taken away all desire to cut! I still have thoughts once in a while, but I don't have any desire. My T came back from vacation and found out at my appointment last week and he was so Shocked my T! and Shocked my T!. I haven't seen such an expression on him for a while, I think. Shocked my T! He couldn't believe it. All this time he assumed that I needed antidepressants and what not--I had stopped taking the Lexapro prescribed by the old pdoc who I hate and of course, my T didn't agree with that decision. I said the Lexapro wasn't doing anything. Shocked my T! He had never even thought about the possibility of AD/HD making me cut. I hadn't either. Seeing the effects the Adderall has on me with this, my T and I now see how they could be related.

My T was sooo happy! I loved shocking him like that and seeing his expression. I liked his reaction too, because he admitted that he had never even considered AD/HD and that "all this time" he thought other things is what I needed. It was a great surprise. I almost feel as though I gave him an early Christmas present. Shocked my T! Shocked my T! (birthday cake, present, close enough)
