GUANFACINE vs GUANFACINE ER

Having ADHD fucking sucks. It’s not quirky, fun, or something that needs to become an entire personality. I’ve seen so many TikTok accounts that are all just “here’s 5 reasons you have ADHD” and then they base everything they discuss as mundane nonsense that doesn’t even pertain to ADHD. “You migh

Let me tell you a story. I’m a dad with ADHD, my oldest son has ADHD inattentive type, the middle son has ADHD hyperactive type, the baby is a baby, but we already have a sense she’s got something going on already. In the mornings, I serve up morning meds for everyone. A vyvanse for dad, fluoxetine

My son is profoundly autistic and very minimally speaking with a host of comorbidities, including ADHD combined type. We tried several stimulant formulations. He couldn't sleep. He became aggressive. He has used clonidine + guanfacine before bed to sleep. Today he started his second dose of clonidi

Decided three years ago to pursue a PhD in a discipline I love after finally took my ADHD seriously. Pursuing a doctorate was something I just didn't think I could do because of how my brain handles unstructured tasks (like writing a dissertation). Turns out with the right drugs (guanfacine + wellbu

I haven’t been able to sit down and read literally just a CHAPTER of a book in like 6 years. I crave just…. Sitting down and focusing on one task. Reading a book. Doing a puzzle. Cleaning my room. For reference I am diagnosed with adhd-c and on Sertraline and Guanfacine. I been on both for like?

I can’t believe nobody has ever recommended this drug to me before. I always struggled with stimulants as there would be days where I would have breakdowns or hyper focus on the wrong thing, couldn’t sleep.. etc. I’ve been taking guanfacine and bupropion for about a month and I REALLY NOTICE a diffe

Maybe it’s just me but I’ve gone through a gauntlet of medications (Adderall, Focalin XR, Ritalin, Metadate, Vyvanse, Dexedrine, Concerta, Wellbutrin, Strattera, Guanfacine) and each time I’ve ended up disappointed in them. At best, they give me a bit of energy/wakefulness and make it slightly easie

This is really long. I’m tired and frustrated, sorry. So I just got off my 11p-7a in the emergency department. We have this one doc, LC, who I’m pretty sure is out to get me. Does this sound dramatic? Yes. Do I actually think it’s true? I’ve been trying to convince myself I’m crazy, but I actually

These signs were posted on the door of the men's sauna today. Not sure what they were thinking, but I assume they are persona non grata now.

Hello all. I hope this update doesn't break any rules, as I suppose I do not have any questions. Mods, let me know. I did not want to just disappear from reddit. I know a number of you have been thinking about me. I said I would post an update before I passed away and, well, here I am. I know it is

Example: You get an expensive bill for a $1,000 unfortunately. U.S. healthcare really shouldn’t be so expensive in the first place...but the first thing you should do is call and ask for a review of the level of care, and while on the phone the next thing you do is ask for an itemized bill with ever

Hi all. Throwaway for privacy. I have seen a lot of stories come forth about what life is like when you have a little extra melanin. I have a lot of friends that sympathize, but they cannot really fathom what it is like. I wanted to share mine. For reference, I grew up in a middle class area in a li

I regret everything I ever thought was a good idea, and the only way of making myself feel better about this situation is by posting. I am NOT a buttplay type of girl. I’ve always found it uncomfortable personally, but my partner has some sort of obsession with the poopoo hole, so that’s the preface
