PatientReceived 1 prior treatment
I've been diagnosed and medicated with ADHD since I was 8 till 17, and the ones I was on didn't really seem to work or would make me feel depressed and a husk of a person. I'm now 7-8 years off medication trying to manage my symptoms best I can but it's a constant daily struggle, and I'm just looking for some relief. I'm tired, and worn. I can't keep fighting everyday I'm not able to build up to anything in life because I can't focus and control my attention.
