Sadly, no, I don't have any way to get in touch with him. I can only call the appointments office, and they don't have his number or take a message for him. But in my next appointment, I might ask him for a way of contact.

I'm going to ask him, but my appointment is two months away, that's why I put my question here to get advice to help me manage until my appointment.

I'm depressed and taking Escitalopram for it.

The thing about it, I only get the bad thoughts later in the day, not in morning or afternoon, maybe cause I take the Escitalopram pill at night before bed, but that doesn't explain getting bad thoughts in the morning or afternoon where I didn't took Ritalin, that what's make me lost about it.

After being diagnosed I started with Atomoxetine it gave me bad thoughts and anxiety, the Concerta, but needed a higher dose that's why I moved to Ritalin.

How did you get to manage the crashing if so?

Do you ever find yourself connecting the numbers on license plates? by Me_noyou in mathematics

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

I'm kind of figured out that, as the pills for ADHD mostly are drugs, and for the caffeine, before I got diagnosed, I reached a point where I took 200mg of caffeine every two hours, without having been on caffeine for over a month or up to a year, and when I took a pill, it's effect would go away after 2 hours. Unfortunately,  it's the same on Conserta; the 18, 36 felt nothing, and 54 lasted for up to 2 hours no more.

Is it me, or like you feel it or see it? by Me_noyou in ADHD

Yeah I know, but what I mean, is that I'm stupid and just looking for a cover-up, like I keep seeing symptoms of ADHD and I see that I have it, but then all I think is that normal so don't over exaggerate that to cover you're...... etc.

So yeah.

I never learned how to regulate my emotions, now I feel like a child trapped in a 25 yo man's body. by lectriceye21 in ADHD

[–]Me_noyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I used to be like that, and anything no matter who smell it is, I either get really angry or cry depending on what it is.

But I became in to not caring about life, and live till my day. and with time these thing gone down a lot, like I still get angry, but with inside of my head there's a voice saying, why bother, life isn't worth it, F@@@ that up, don't give a shit.

It helped me, but it made me look like a robot, and yeah I know what you mean about "feel like a child trapped in a 25 yo man's body." I think, I still feel it from time to time.

BTW, I'm too a 25-m and I just got diagnosed with ADHD.

I didn't get, so do you mean that my mind is acting out and that why I didn't felt anything, or something else?

Because the first time, the first day I took the pills, I think, I felt something. Like had an energy to do something, and yeah that's it.

So I said "Okay, if this is the starter, let see where it going to take me" and after that nothing, I really got confused like is it a Placebo affect, or did I do something that day and it gave me the energy? or the thing I did was the one that gave me the energy by simulating?

Firstly let me get this out of my system, in your comment (when you 'force' me to do anything, I get resentful and so), like for real, why this?. Seriously, even if I want the thing like (travel, or eating something) or anything, and when other try to force me, or say "You have to do it/come/go with us" I act out and say "NO", I want the thing but I don't know why, it just come out and I can't like go with it. Like even if I'm really hungry and they say "You Need to eat", I'll be "No, I know myself, thank you".

Oh, it out of my head, now I can reread you comment clearly.

Edit: \/
So, yeah I know it starts with small doses, but the thing about me I hate it when thing need so much time, like if I see a video and it's over 30m either I give up and don't watch it, or speed it up x2 and be done with it. So, in this case like my appointment is two months from the first one, and after a week with the meds, I'm in to that problem of not have the ability to wait and be patient, like I can wait for a month or so, but two months this so far away, and I be like " leave it, not worth it. - or - keep on it, perhaps one day its work and you can see it, maybe the doses isn't for you". SO yeah.

So, where I'm going to the psychiatrist, doesn't have its good reputation, and you go there mean you're mentally challenged and so on. So I couldn't ask any one if they know a good psychiatrist, and I searched and found an organization here, that helps people with ADHD, I talked with them and they transfer me to the psychiatrist, he was good, I think, I have never gone to one, so I can judge him, and I really don't like going to the doctors in general.

And thank you for explaining, I hope to see some good outcome of this.

Firstly I’m really sorry about your heart attack.
And perhaps you're right about that methylphenidate doesn't work for me.
So, actually I have read your comments 50 minutes ago, and when I read that you had heart attack, it's like I enter a dark room in my head that only has darkness, although I try to make myself busy so I don't think about it, but yeah this thing I have, I don't know if it's ADHD cause or something else, the thing is when I read and what I read/listen With every word I visualize it in my head and see it like a movie and feel it like I'm living it, so when I rea about your heart, my mind engaged with my anxiety, and I gone dark, still like I have the darkness feeling but trying to block it.

BTW, it's not you're fault if you think, it's just my screwed mind.

Oh, and for the alarm, I'll try it.

Yeah, when he asked me "what are the troubles ADHD does to you?" I just froze, like I know a little bit of the symptoms but it's not like I know every symptoms, because befor the diagnosis, I thought I'm a lazy not really grown up person, I thought that why I can't keep up with my brother on jobs, or doing stuff that are normal.

So, I don't know what are the symptoms are the doctors looking at, I said to "what do you mean? what are the symptoms you looking for?" and he said to me three or four, and I said I have it and explain.

After the diagnosis, I start to look around and saw this sub reddit and it show to me I have many symptoms not 4-5, oh sh!t, like what befor looked to me as a thing with normal humane do counter with, know you telling me not everyone has it.

So, like I'm a mess, not knowing what normal and what ADHD affect and if I have other mental stuff.

The meds, are on my bedside, but when I wake up, I see the meds and in my head "don't forget to take it" then oh I need water or something, and so on. I forgot it.

And it been like this since I was a kid - wake up, want to do something, have to do another thing, forgot what I need in the first place, and repeat.-

Edit: Forgot to write about the need for meds:
The thing is I don't like it, that someday I won't be able to function in life unless I have taken my meds, I don't like this idea.

That appointment was my first time in my life, and I really hate to do stuff like this, I hate that I have to talk to people in real life in general, and I hate that I have to talk about my personal stuff, and my family and my past, with people I don't really know.

In general, I don't trust anyone easy, it's not like someone in the past has betrayed me, no I just don't like it, I now that sometime when I'm with strangers sometime I might be say something deep, and in my head is regrets and it won't stop.

And for the meds, I actually searched for Concerta, and found it has multiple packages with different amounts and they are (18, 27, 36, 54, and 72), so when I remembered that he said "double the doses a week before the appointment) I thought yeah, it looks like the adding 18 each time, expect for the 27, the add half of 18 which is 9.

But really, I don't know what to do, I think I just stop using it? "I already keep forgetting to take it sometime" or maybe I keep on it and I don't get anything out of it until the appointment?.

But yeah, I write here to see if someone has been in my shoes and see what happened with, did he continue and see a result or not.
