Hello, my name is Sean and I was curious as to which med would best fit me for ADHD predominantly inattentive, I have a very hard time talking to anyone (parent, therapist, counselor, ARNP [med giver]) about getting prescribed a stimulant version of an ADHD med because I am a drug addict, but what they don't see is that I'm pretty stable and am working on getting back into in recovery (not totally NA based but I do go). Thats my only big problem, but I do know that almost anything with Dextroamphetamine, is a HUGE risk for me because of the fact that im also a sex addict and all Dex-anything doess is make me VERY horny, which erowid has stated can lead to trouble. I have been perscribed vyvanse and it helped me a lot but unfortunatly it has DEX, I am now prescribed intuniv, and I seriously doubt it helps, all i notice that it does for me is slow my mind down (basically more relaxed) which is the opposite of what I need. Now years previous to being hooked on drugs (although I was still an addict) was prescribed ritalin, and from what I'm told (little memory of my past) I was doing better than ever in school, now its after being hooked on drugs and I've realised that the concerta that I've taken something like 2 times is actually the same as ritalin (I've taken it twice today) because for one I was craving the short lived rush i get from concerta, and for two because i needed to get the correct dose if i try to get perscribed (I only need 36mg anymore just makes me tweak), But anywho I've realised like I said that I've been taking ritalin which is the drug that helped me so much in the past, and is still helping me so much now as long as i get the right dose. I really just need to know if concerta/ritalin is the right drug or if there's a better one possibly datrona.
Concerta helps with concentration, motivation, and sociability for the most part but those all lead me to even more positive things (im antisocial when sober, only social if on cocaine or thizz pills/molly which a lot of the time those make me more antisocial).
Now MY own personal problems with concerta is mainly things that go with high doseges like jitters over-thinking/ over-over acheiving if you know what I mean (basically makes me tweak), and the main one really is the fact that I get a very short lived craving for the short lived rush i get in the first 30mins to an hour of the high (craving lasts for about an hour afterwords).
Any questions needing me to elaborate on anything that doesnt make sense or needing more info which you really shouldn't need (LOL) just shoot.
Any and all advise will be greatly appretiated and thought over with the few people who will really listen with an open mind.
Thanks. and sorry for the tweakerish questions and info post.
