Been doctors

Been the doctors and she is referring me to a adhd specialist. She was abit hessitant first saying there isnt really a specialist for adults but there is someone who has taken on this field. But i asked her to refer me to a private specialist.

She also gave me Mirtazapine 15mg

Re: Been doctors

Good luck on the Remeron, I hope it helps with some of your symptoms. Be very careful when you first start taking it, to see how it impacts you. They don't put that heavy machinery warning on there for nothing... I was on it for 2 weeks and I refer to them as "the lost weeks" because I couldn't keep my eyes open for more than 30 minutes at a time without falling asleep. I couldn't even drive a car I was so tired! Also gave me serious munchies. Hope it fares better for you!
