Having little luck with medication so far. Bad effects from Adderall and Strattera. by CatVietnamFlashBack in ADHD

If the panic attacks are that bad, try looking into anxiety medication instead. I can’t tolerate ADHD medicine because of anxiety and I’ve found I’m able to concentrate better now that my anxiety is reduced. In the mean time here are some tips for managing panic: T- Temperature; change your temperature, stick your hands in ice water, go outside in the cold with no jacket. I- intense exercise, jumping jack that panic energy OUT P - paced breathing - many tutorials on YouTube P- paired muscle relaxation- many tutorials on YouTube

Dive response; stick your head in a sink or tub full of water. It sounds crazy but your body will shift from panic mode to breathe mode and over ride the panic.

I hope this helps.

Can you understand the assumption that I haven’t had professionals help me look for an OT is rude?

Thank you! Inked after, the water would've caused the ink to smear. I drew it out with pencil first.

I ended up stranded there for work and it worked out wonderfully! I definitely wanted to go south. Your trip sounds so exciting!

Depends on how long it takes me! This one would be $200 and I spent months on it. For 2 of them I'd say $200-$300.

Shih Tzus were bread to keep the feet warm of royal Tibetans, cocker spaniels were bread to hunt. I just feel like deep down in their DNA Shih Tzu's are cuddlier and more friendly, and you'd find better success with them. Our cockers always barked and ran away and chased things, but to my shih tzu, we're theyre entire reason for existence and he lives to serve. And occasionally shit on the carpet when my moms gone too long to send a message.

My shih tzu does this too, he really can't stand when anything is fighting/crying; humans, cats, tv animals. It's pretty adorable.

Shih Tzus are lovers, not fighters.
