Hey everyone! I'm 39 years old and I'm from Ohio. I deal with a lot of mental health issues on a daily basis, as well as chronic pain. I don't have a village, as in family to lean on and I literally have no friends so I'm such a home body. I would be happy to meet friends in this community though, I'm just not the best at starting up conversation.
Anywho, so I finally signed up as an actual member cause I've been lurking for a few years without an account. I have no one I feel I can be fully transparent with but this seems like an extremely safe space. I have had the same Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner for over a decade and I have a legit script for Adderall because I have major ADHD. I also have a malabsorption issue which my PNP has documented in my medical charts because he had me come to the office, take my medicine, have my blood drawn and then they drew it every x amount of hours. I was pretty much there all day long. He was trying to help me prove to my other doctors like my PCP that think I'm just any other addict on the street that no, this medication is in fact dumping out of my system extremely fast. This is why he prescribes me 4 x 20 mg a day, which is pretty much unheard of especially in the state of Ohio, but he's willing to back me up and I'm extremely lucky for that. The problem is over the past several months I've noticed my ADHD symptoms are spiraling out of control even though I'm medicated to the max. I've even started taking a few more here and there because I guess I'm basically "chasing the dopamine" because I get so depressed when I crash and burn between 4-6 pm every day. I don't want to continue down this path because I don't want to end up with a full blown addiction. Does anyone have any suggestions? Are there any ADHD medications that are stronger than Adderall? Oh, I should also note I CANNOT have ER anything because my body will not break it down and the capsule will come out WHOLE when I use the restroom! My PNP is also aware of this and I know he'd be willing to work with me and whatever suggestions I were to make. (and yes I know how extremely rare and lucky it is to have an amazing Psychiatrist Nurse Practitioner like him). Any thoughts, advice, ideas? Please throw it my way!
Thanks in advance guys!
