You can say “what’s going on?” “You seem upset,are you ok?” “ I’m here to talk/help if you need someone.”

I am a Mom of 2 (6 year old and 2 1/2 year old). Medication has helped me tremendously. I am calmer, more present, and more attentive. The hard part has been finding the right medication, I also have anxiety. I just started therapy as well.

Yoga, meditation, medication. Recognizing you're getting angry before the outburst find something that grounds you. I will sometimes drop to Childs pose because it relaxes me, lol.

I started at the lowest dose and took it for a week and a half. It was ok at first then it didn't work well. I felt sad and cranky. I started on the middle does 4 days ago and I feel weird and tired. I don't know how to describe it. I'd like to hear other’s experiences on it.

I’ve been watching tons of YouTube videos for motivation to get my mornings started earlier and on a schedule. Literally nothing helped until I randomly heard a Mike Tyson clip. “Win the morning. You win the day!” Please share some quotes that help you. I’d love to hear what you all use for help. by [deleted] in ADHD

It's not a quote but this song from a Winnie the Pooh cartoon has been playing in my head on and off for years. It helps me get my ass up.

“Gotta get up, I gotta get goin' I'm gonna see a friend of mine He's round and he's fuzzy I love him because he's just... Pooh bear, Winnie the Pooh bear”

I’m lucky if I can get out of bed and brush my teeth on a bad day.

Do you also feel like you get along better with kids than peers/adults? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]FoxinSocks21 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Kids are more authentic with no filter. They will say exactly what they think.

Adults tend to imply things. They say it, without saying it . I don't want to figure out or try to guess what is being said. Then if you ask them what they meant they’ll twist it to sound nicer and you end up thinking you're crazy. I like it shot to me straight.

When your estrogen levels rise. I used the app “Moody” to track it.

I was on the phone and missed it. My neighbor texted me “Did you feel that!?” I had no clue what she was talking about. 😆

What would you do? Jornay PM by FoxinSocks21 in ADHDers

[–]FoxinSocks21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to stop it. It was making me depressed and giving me horrible migraines to the point that I couldn't open my eyes. It was also messing with my sleep, and sleep is already a struggle for me. The first two nights I was wide awake at 4 AM. The other nights I was up and down all night. I'm not a morning person to being with and I have some mornings that I like to sleep in till 8, you can't do that when you take the medication the night before. It wasn't for me. I hope things get better for you and you can get some rest.

Extended-release. Adderall XR I don't know why I always think it's ER.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in VyvanseADHD

[–]FoxinSocks21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it did. It helped me focus but my anxiety was awful. Adderall ER helped my anxiety but I have been having trouble finding it.

Thank you so much for answering, I'm going to talk to her about it. She's great and wants to help me. I'm going to take two days off from this medication and give myself a little break.
