I was wondering about add and if any of you knew more than I do? I know I was diagnosed with it several times and also just know it by reading about it. I got to thinking caffeine perks people up but crashes people later though in some add people(including me) helps me focus as a stimulant. Again it causes you to crash way to soon.
Anyway, is there any other stimulant like caffeine that does the same effect as caffeine but much less dosage, it’s side effects and etc.
Is there in herbal medication that does this?(herbal medication saved my life, so strong supporter here)
Only reason I ask is I used caffeine to help me with my add but it’s not something I want to use and the new working place doesn’t like you drinking energy drinks, which is what actually helps me focus, so this is my curiosity as a way to help me keep my job.
If you were diagnosed with ADD you should be on medication for it. I’ve know quite a few people over the years that had ADD or ADHD who were all prescribed meds like Adderall and Ritalin.
That is true. I have know people who could not stand the side effects. He didn’t mention anything about ever being on meds and not liking them though. I still think that a small dose of the proper meds would be more effective than relying on caffeine or energy drinks. It’s his choice completely.
Medicine can be really expensive and without a proper healthcare system some people will not be able to afford such things. I would recommend meds though if possible.
Here in the US health insurance is pretty much mandatory since about 2 years ago. It’s fairly easy to get state insurance depending on how much you make at work, and what your living expenses are. If you don’t qualify for state insurance you have to pay out of pocket or face a fine each year.
Lol. Okay, meds didn’t work for me because I’m the freak who can fight any med off if I don’t like it’s effects. I even took aspirin and fought it off so I would be in pain still.Yeah, me and medication hate each other. Hence why I’m making my own natural medication when I get enough money.
Also I do have insurance as someone said you have to or otherwise u get fined on taxes, the insurance is the Sanford health one for free though.
Lastly everyone thinks they can fix a broken brain by meds but no, you can’t. Just like you can’t take a pill and you’re leg grows back, if you could that would be creepy.
Can’t believe I stirred all this up from one thing. Lol.
Also, thank you to the first two posters, that helped a lot yesterday. So I’ll be making a time released version for me sooner down the road.
Lol. I know, did you know that add meds are drugs as well yet doctors will prescribe them in a heartbeat that can cause more damage than alcohol and marijuana than good, so lol.
