Hi Chris,
Thank you for responding! I take 60 mg in the morning and 60 mg at night of Duloxetine every day. I have been diagnosed with ADHD but never told my current neurologist. I was put Ritalin for it and scared me so much!!! I woke up ovef and over again with night terrors, dreams that only a team of Hitchcock and Stephen King could dream of. I was afraid of telling my neurologist when I changed to him that I had ADHD because of the medicine that I tried!
I wonder if you could ADHD too, Panic attacts and only being able to concentrate on one thing, symptoms for adult women.
I have been keeping two appointment books, one that I take with me to the appoinment and another one for more private stuff like webnairs that I have signed up for ! Now that one is missing.
I get caught in creative projects too and forget to check the time.
If you do FB, the easiest thing would be to set up a private room. I can communicate by e-mail and phone, Please let me know which of these three methods that you would prefer,
Your friend,
Carol

What a considerate response. I am happy to hear that Duloxetine has been helpful. We are on the same dose. Your presentation about ADHD has my mind working. I will discuss that issue with my Behavioral Clinician next week.

Do you think you have missed something by withholding the ADHD experience? I know exactly how you felt. I have been tempted to do the same on occasion. However, I believe in shared decision-making with my clinicians so I must do my part. The problem is I am being asked questions about things that happened 40 and 50 years ago. I am afraid of getting things wrong or leaving important points out.

That is a great idea about the webinar times in a different book. How often do you remember to look at it? Hmmmmm I miss so many for one reason or another.

I am not a big FB user........just post art and puppy dogs.

Perhaps it would be best to use what we already have....Connect. Then others can benefit from our experiences and join the discussion if they have something to ask or more information to contribute.

Let's stay in touch. I especially want to share this second two hours of testing with you.

May you be happy and whole!
Chris
