The Wifey - a new perspective

[The Wifey]

Violin,

I don't think you know me well if you think that offended me. LOL. The psychologist is recommending a trial of a stimulant med. For now we have me taking my welbutrin 3 x a day. I was taking it 2 x a day. It is an antidepression med but they also use it for adult ADD because it increases the production of seritonin, as that is impaired in adults with ADD.

I have been given book recommendations that I am reading for self-education and also for my H to get educated. There are adult ADD support groups and support groups for spouces of people with ADD, but I don't know if any are in my area. I haven't looked, but its a sure bet there would be on online. There seems to be one for everything else, even The OW.

Meds are recommeded but don't help everyone. Mostly its learning, slowing down, simplifying your life, and adopting coping strategies. Just reading the few books I have so far has resulted in a lot of "Oh, that's why I do xyz."

Its worth exploring if you think there is any indication for yourself.
