I’m nervous about going to a campus doctor for ADHD medication. Unfortunately, since I’ll be using the school’s health insurance, it will be the cheapest way to get the drugs I need.
I haven’t used the Focalin or any other ADHD medication regularly since I started studying for the GMAT last spring. I really wish I had a few bottles of it so I could take it whenever I planned to stay inside and work. Even though I’m on ‘vacation’, my husband and I have been trying to work on various websites by spending a few days at home every week. He gets so much stuff done, while I get lost surfing the web or bounce back and forth between websites not really accomplishing anything.
I’m not a big coffee drinker. I usually drink green tea. When I was working I would drink several cups throughout the day, but now I usually only have one cup in the morning. Today I had a coffee and about an hour afterwords I looked back at what I had accomplished and was quite impressed.
I haven’t done real research on the subject, but I thought caffeine was a no-no for kids with ADHD. Is that because they are already on Ritalin or Adderall?
I wonder if I could get through college without the powerful stimulants, but instead get a cappuccino machine. (As I said, I’m not a coffee drinker, so I only like the milky sweet drinks.)
