Hi Manny,

I was diagnosed ADD about 4 months ago. My primary prescribed adderal. It helped me stay focussed and did make a difference, but it raised my blood pressure and just seemd to harsh.

I switched to a 10 milligram extended release and that seem to do the trick. As a mattr of fact I got to the pont where I only feel I need it 3 to 5 days a week. It is much more gentle and keeps me on track. I’m highly functional with I gues moderate ADD symptoms – but sometimes it really messes up my forward progress.

My danger zone is at night between 6:00 and 11:00 at night . I get wired, antsey and restless. More often than not this leads either eating food that is not good for me or a couple of drinks to calm me down.

After a month or so on this the Phych I have seen has suggested adding 100 mill of welbutrin twice per day. I am just strating this combo and not sure how it will work. Wondering if anyone else is on a similar combo of meds.
