To Game guy,
Do you know what it says on my adderall warning letters that came with my prescription the last time I filled it? Something like this.
“Do not take this medication if you are under the age of 3.” If you are pregnant, please be advised that your baby may be born with a lowered birth weight, and also final birth height.” Additionally, your baby may be born addicted to the medication.”
You endorse this, but give dire warnings about natural supplements and fish oil, etc?
I had not taken adderall in a while and I felt like my heart was coming out of my chest, I was very anxious, and I had that zombie feeling. I just have had enough.
Also I want to know, does anyone’s doctor ever give them a “exit strategy” when it comes to adderall? You told me to talk to my doctor, if I tell her this, she really has no more use for me. Her job is to dispense medication, we have a 15 minute talk and it is $140. That’s another reason why I am trying to find something natural to help me.
When did your doctor tell you to quit taking your meds? Oh, you never had that conversation, huh? That’s my point, there is no exit strategy because if they think it is ok to have a 3 year old on Adderall then they certainly wouldn’t have a problem with a 70 year old on adderall.
I went over to the biggest forum of them all the add forum, and there was a woman who was bitterly complaining that the people on the board were so pro-drug that she felt like she was never warned about the dangers of the drug. She basically said it ruined her life.
You can bash natural supplements all you want, it seems to be a pattern with those that may be addicted and are defensive about questions raised.
I am going to try AddieUP, and if it works as well as the people on facebook says, then I will be back. You can trash the little guy, it makes me think you work for man, and may have addiction issues or a financial interest in protecting the drug companies. THEY can afford to pay people like you, I doubt a little supplement company can afford to pay for people to go around the internet like you say with your conspiracy theories.
Regarding paid spokesman….This happened about 12 years ago when many members of CHADD forums were shocked and outraged to find out that the people in the forums, moderators, etc were actually paid spokesmen for the drug companies and were there to get more people on the drugs. Were you around for that?
I just read their facebook pages, it does not look like a conspiracy theory, Addie UP just looks to be a small company that has an alternative to market. I scrolled thru and saw several people with pictures of themselves and I am waiting to hear back from a couple who really have good things to say, the mother of three in particular. I am also getting samples, I could not find any negative reviews on anyone who used the product, just people like you who seem to be so pro- drug….I like supporting the “little guy” and I am not closed minded.
There are no LONG TERM studies on adderall, btw. Are you going to be taking it into your 70-80’s? Have you thought about an exit strategy? I bet your doctor hasn’t, he or she keeps wanting you to come back again and again, and I think the drug companies want the same thing.
Also wanted to ask anyone if neuro-feedback had worked for anyone? Thanks in advance.
