]]> Comment on ADD/ADHD Meds by tah-revor http://drugcontent.com/stimulants/addadhd-meds/#comment-17 tah-revor Sat, 16 Aug 2008 11:02:04 +0000 http://drugcontent.com/?p=60#comment-17 Ok so it is very unfortunate that this and other so called "med fact" articles on ADHD stimulants blatantly lie by saying that people with ADHD do not become addicted to these meds. Just because a person has been diagnosed with ADHD does NOT mean they are magically immune to the many dangerous pit-falls of speed. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "SAFE" SPEED USE. period. if you have a brain and a body, you are just as eligible as the next guy to be vulnerable to the scary "side effects" of these drugs. Ive been prescribed Adderall/concerta/vyvanse/daytrana for my ADHD "trying to find the right med" but no matter what form its taken or how much the dose, these drugs can seriously damage your health/lifestyle. yes, they DO increase your ability to focus, but that focus soon fades into a soupbowl of disturbing behaviors that the user has no control of. For me, ive had borderline OCD/Tourettes like "tics" such as constantly picking your skin, checking your pockets, and even rapid body twitches. But thats nothing compared to the EXTREME paranoia one feels for anywhere between 2-6 hours after the initial effect. It is an all encompassing, ever-growing irrational fear of anything from spiders to a meteor hitting the earth. Your muscles literally clench from the hypertension that accompanies it, and it becomes ironic how suddenly you cannot focus on anything but the fear that has a hold of you. dont even get me started on the weight-loss and insomnia factors. So to sum it up i strongly feel these drugs are not suitable for ANYONE for any reason at all. they are strong CNS stimulants and should never be given a fancy name to cover their nature. It sickens me how doctors usually blame patients and not the drug companies for the many issues these drugs cause.
