So after 3 years of being off meds, I felt the need to explore this anew. I was prescribed Vyvanse, along with Escitalopram (Cipralex). It was 3 days of intense anxiety, flashing back to two cocaine near-ODs in the 1990s. Ain't nobody got time for that!!
I'm going back to the doc today, hoping to maybe go back to the old gals Adderall and Celexa. In two weeks, I'll visit another doctor to explore CBD oil for ADHD and anxiety.
However, I also noticed during those medicated years, that my musical creativity was near zero. I could do some work, but mostly technical, editing, mixing, etc, but I didn't feel like I was able to "invent." I spent thousands on library and equipment, but that didn't translate.
So I'm curious about others who are affected with ADHD, how do you deal with this, what kinds of meds have worked for you (Amphetamines vs Methylphenidate). And btw, I've been off dope and booze for over 20 years, so I don't think that comes in the equation.
Thanks in advance, if you prefer PM'ing to remain discrete about this, I'll totally understand!
Cheers,
Andre
