Ahhhh.... Apparently it is working now.
 I am the mom to a 15yo young man with ADD, severe dysgraphia and mild dyslexia. He is currently on Dexedrine Spansules and is doing well. DH and I are also ADD but unmedicated. Life in this house is NEVER. EVER dull!  (Malloy, I saw that you posted but it never showed up. The forum was being totally wonky. I hope you post again!) |

Hi Chimera.
I have ADD also and now that I know it (wasn't diagnosed until a couple years ago), a lot of things in my life make sense! Oi vey. I only take 5 mg of ritalin on work days to help with my concentration. It works well for me, that small dose. I haven't heard of Dexedrine Spansules, though I know what dexedrine is. Nice to meet you.

HI, all. I have 2 grandsons with ADHD, both unmedicated. We seem to have a lot of learning disabilities in the family, 2 of my 3 children have LD's, and 5 of my 7 grandkids are affected. The other 2 grandkids are too young to be tested.
Although I myself post on the MG forum, I'll pop into this one if I have any questions, and to keep an eye open for any good advice I can pass on to my kids to help the grandkids.

Hi everybody!
Adult ADHD (sometimes I wonder about the "inattentive/non-hyperactive" label  ), diagnosed three or four years ago after a lifetime of limping. Dexedrine 7.5 mg. twice a day on work days, and the difference is so great it cannot be measured. I'm happy to meet you.
