Avatar f tn re looking for anxiety coping tips to add to your own toolkit, may I message you with a list of links to a selection of my earlier posts that included tips?
Avatar f tn Ritalin is very popular for ADD/ADHD. Celexa is an SSRI which is used for depression and can also be used to treat OCD. Once again, I am no doctor, but I would recommend getting a second opinion, maybe more thorough. How many times did your son see the psychiatrist? If he made all those diagnosis on a single visit, I would a little hesitant. I have learned to always question doctors until you find one you are comfortable with and trust.
1237757 tn?1323143119 I had a bit of a slip up in the past week with managing my bipolar. Had run out of melatonin which I normally use to help me get to sleep and substituted Xanax for it instead (also because I'm getting really stressed as well at the moment and just wanted to escape and have a good nights sleep for a change) Naughty I know, but I think you also know how it gets sometimes. Anyway woke up like the dead a couple of days in a row and ended up getting into work late.

Avatar f tn Beware... when the tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. you posted to an add/adhd forum so of course the suggestion are to "test" for add/adhd. If you ask the school, who want to believe that every behavioural problem is a diagnosable and treatable - in the hope that all children can be well behaved through the magic pill, and they will steer you that way.
Avatar f tn You gave a very helpful toolkit to groverallover. I think I'll check it out too. It may not work for me (Medicare's drug policy isn't really geared towards helping with expensive diseases/but it's worth a shot. ) Thanks JJ!

It includes the symptoms, complications and treatments of cirrhosis, things to avoid, vaccinations, screening for liver cancer and a basic recommended diet.

1237757 tn?1323143119 Hi Again, I'm having a craic at the holy grail, mentioning being Bipolar at interview stage. Reason being it is with a Temp agency and I figured if I can build a good relationship with the recruiter, possibly they might be able to put me in contact with a good company that could help, also if I am put in contact with a few different companies it will hopefully allow me to practice telling an employer about being Bipolar.
Avatar n tn ( You can even order them the herpes blood testing toolkit for under $3 from www.ashastd.org and give it to them as an early xmas present to better increase their knowledge - there's a whole section in there on why igm herpes testing isn't worthwhile. You had a + igm and then follow up igg's are negative.
Avatar f tn Finally, I started using my own Rotary Toolkit to do my own adjusting. I took care of pain and gagging myself. The dentures are temporaries, so the dentist doesn't mind my handy work. Even now, I still do some "adjusting" as my gums are still healing and changing. I have a very low tolerance of pain in my mouth. I won't get the permanent dentures until November and the way I modified the "temporaries", I'm OK with that.
Avatar m tn I called a temp agency and arranged an interview for the Monday, then on the Friday just before I spent the day writing up the first draft of my bipolar toolkit which was basically explaining as best as I could about my illness but also the need for a job because of it. I sent it off to them on the Friday and when we met on Monday the guy said he had read it quite a few times and said it wouldn't be a problem at all and then he started putting me out to jobs.

Avatar m tn I got custody of my 7 year old nephew along with his two sisters and 1 brother about two years ago. All four if them were diagnosed with ADHD and on medication. After dealing with his behaviors I feel like their may be something else going on, but am having a difficult time pin pointing it. He definitely has all of the ADHD symptoms, but some added on top.
Avatar f tn Hi. My son is 10 years old with severe adhd. He has been on meds since he was 5. Recently we have had to change his meds for the first time in 5 yrs.(nightmare) I hadn't really thought about it til now but am really interested in some natural remedies for this. Even some over the counter meds would be fine. Does anyone have something they do for their child that works well?
Avatar f tn But when inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsive behavior are the norm for a child, it may be a sign of ADHD. ADHD can lead to problems at home and at school, with family, teachers, and peers, so it’s important to identify the symptoms and get help.
383943 tn?1217722721 Did she get evaluated by a psycholigist or developmental doctor that specializes in ADHD? If she has ADHD, the first medication that you should try is Metadate CD or Ritalin. Start with a very small dosage such as 2.5mg or 5mg. If it does not work because it is not enough, keep on increasing the amount very slowly until you see that she is doing well. I am not familiar with celexa. If it is a stimulant like Ritalin, the dosage sounds too high.

Avatar m tn I am diagnosed ADHD, I think I might be bi-polar. My family saids that I am always up and down with my moods. When it comes down to it, I see it also. I feel like I have huge bad mood swings, either very happy or very depressed. Would going back on my Prozac help?
Avatar f tn My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD 4 years ago. She is 10. We haven't been able to find a medicine that works long term.,she has been on many of the ADHD meds. Can anyone help?
Avatar f tn Shes never been diagnosed with it but sehe definitely seems like she has ADHD. But since they all have adhd, will my daughter more than likely have adhd?
