    Awww…

    I am sorry you are having a tough day. I’ve been there. Usually more sad and self-loathing… although I do get my rage blasts too.

    I think when you are feeling better, you might appreciate some of your positive attributes… maybe you should sign up for a stand-up comedy night!

    Anyway- hang in there. I have no good advice. but I understand. Hugs. :-)

    Just wanted to give an update…

    I was loving my meds for a few months…changed to concerta (36 mg, then 54 mg)… but then… I got pregnant! This was happy news- my husband and I had been trying for 2 years (which is another depressing tale).

    Anyway- I am off my meds and back in my ADHD fog + I am hormonal = ROUGH.

    I can’t wait to have this baby in November- and I am so excited to get back on my meds… I am picturing a serene and happy maternity leave- although- let’s face it- I am never going to be Martha Stewart… ha ha.

    I’ve been struggling this pregnancy- but I am so thrilled to be having another child and I just try to keep sight of that. I am brutal at work these days- hyperfocusing on pregnancy, childbirth, babies… UGGG.

    Any other pregnant ADHD people out there? How did you manage your symptoms while pregnant- aside from high protein diet, staying active and getting rest? Any tips? did any of you stay medicated?

    Thanks.

    Hey there,

    I haven’t really posted here (I’m newly diagnosed) but I just felt for you when I read your post. Hang in there. Some of the worst times in life can lead to some of the best times. I’m sorry you are having such a hard time. Sending big hugs your way.
