Avatar m tn Having said that - the big IF is - was it an accurate diagnosis of ADHD. There are things that can make it seem like you have ADHD. Lack of sleep (apnea), food allergies, etc. The reason I mention this is that usually, if the correct dose of adderall is given, (and you have ADHD) you don't get "sick". However, if you don't have ADHD, then you will really notice what the effect of Adderall is on you.
Avatar f tn Now, back to the possibility of ADHD. How did the pediatrician go about the diagnosis? It might make sense to re-visit this issue. As a beginning, I would ask his teacher to complete the Vanderbilt Assessment Scale and you as well. With these results in hand, make an appointment with a child psychiatrist. On the home front, be sure that completion of homework occurs before any recreational activity. This may enhance his motivation to focus on the work, much as your use of the timer did.

Im jealous of that actually. Im currently 4 months and also feel kinda sickly.. like a headache that wont go away. Body aches from sex as well. Maybe i should lay off.. anyone have any suggestions ? I hate feeling crummy !

2032451 tn?1333061536 Ok so its weird I'm need to know if lack of sleep can mess with anxiety! I sleep just fine on the weekends but no matter how late I go to sleep during the week as soon as my bf leaves I wake up and can't go back to sleep... I did that today and my anxiety seem to have gotten really bad today.
Avatar n tn Try to do something relaxing before you go to sleep, like take a bath. One of the standard pieces of advice is to get up if you haven't managed to fall asleep after 30 min, so that you don't worry about not sleeping, do something for a while, and then try again. I hope you get some good sleep soon!
Avatar n tn The thing is, i have been put on almost all of known anit seizure medications, none seem tobe as effective as it should be, i beleive at one time i was close to depression while on depakot, then i met a specialist who then put me on Zonegran, it worked for a couple years or so, then i moved to Las Vegas back in 03, it started again inspite the drugs, perhaps a combonation of stress, and lack of sleep could be the cause of it all?
Avatar n tn ll need medical help. But this is not something to just let continue. Lack of sleep is detrimental to our physical and mental health, and the cause needs to be uncovered as soon as possible. Oh, and boost his nutrition during this time of stress on his body due to poor sleep.

Avatar f tn Ur baby is preparing u for ur lack of sleep to come after delivery.
Avatar f tn org/en/about Also, many studies have shown that lack of sleep really makes ADHD symptoms worse and sometimes even may be the real reason behind the problem. Point being is that you really want to also focus on his sleep disorder. I should also note that some asthma medicines (inhalers) can be very stimulating and cause ADHD like behaviors. If you have any questions about any of this - please post! Best wishes.

Avatar f tn Hi, I'm 26 y/o girl. Since I was17, I've had problems in my studying, because of lack of concentration. Since then, I've always been in love with someone. And since then, I've spend most of my time in internet, sleeping about 3 am, and waking up very late. I've been always late in my 19-25 years old(I think it was because of depression). And I was not successful in my lessons. But thank god, I finally graduated.
