Hey there,
Got a survey for everyone. Anyone out there have OCD or ADD or something similar, that take medications? Ok, now the survey questions are:
1- what condition do you have?
2- what meds or natural remedies have worked for you?
3- Therapy?
4- anyone have news on adderall?

1. Adult ADHD
2. Stimulents have worked best. No fish oils or anything else have worked.
3. Um, can't think of any. Using a PDA helps lots, though! I call it "my brain". It keeps me on track!
4. Adderall XR (extended release) works very well for me, but if I take too much, I get restless legs at night. Funny thing is, if I take it at night, I don't get restless legs at all, but then my mind races and I don't get any sleep either.

1. major depressive disorder
2. I hate Prozac, but it has a strong energizing effect
3. currently take Ativan - love it - but it never seems like enough.
I'm experimenting with melatonin, but so far.. its a disappointment
4. I hear adderall is great even for depression. However, its an amphetamine .. so you'll need something to bring you down off it.
