View Full Version : How long have you been on medications for AD/HD lilthingsADDup 08-10-03, 07:48 PM I'm curious how long have some of you been taking meds for your condition. fasttalkingmom 08-11-03, 07:15 AM I'll have to say 5 years because most of last year I wasn't taking meds. joanrdtobe 08-11-03, 09:51 AM For mental illnesses in general....a long time...maybe greater than 10 years....for ADD about 6 years..and I have to say for me, it's never been perfect, even on the meds...I've had my ups and downs...given life stressors, etc. But the meds have made a signficant difference....and I'm sure I will always be on them... waywardclam 08-20-03, 09:59 AM I didn't vote... because there's no option for unmedicated (as of yet)... sirlan 08-23-03, 07:41 PM Just got diagnosed last week so I'll have to say for about 3 days now with surprising, and good, results. joanrdtobe 08-23-03, 10:25 PM That's great Greg.....keep it up....congrats........:).........your road ahead will only get better...... Brianne 05-06-04, 10:38 PM 5 years for ADD meds almost. I am close enough to 5 years thats what I put when I voted. Been on ADD meds since dx'ed Ian 05-26-04, 04:56 PM Seven months. I'm happy I tried the meds. Cheers! Ian. Brianne 05-26-04, 06:47 PM Its just reciently been 5 years sence I was diagnosed but I stoped taking meds for about 6 months last year...............so should I vote 4 years or 5 sence its right in the middle of both? Doh!!!!!!!!!! I voted already but forgot that I did......................What an ADD moment LOL! sorry all! :rolleyes: :uhh: Jerry 05-27-04, 05:42 AM It's been over 10+ years for me for ADD meds and 1+ year for depression. |
