ADHD Medadate medication?

I just started taking this im 16. What will I start to notice, how will I feel, how do I know when its working for like school and stuff. If you are taking this, did u first feel very tired, confused, etc?

I noticed I have had headaces most of the day.
I take it at 8:00 am and is it suppost to take like 2-3 hours to kick in?

Does anyone know of any ADHD medication that is also used to treat anxiety, I do also have an anxiety disorder.

Is this medication ok to use on teens if they have anxiety and a fast heart rate.

If this ADD/ADHD med is right for you, you will notice an improvement in a few days (better able to focus, things won't distract as much, etc.)

Many folks with ADD/ADHD suffer from anxiety too. It is very common. I am not aware of any meds that treat ADD/ADHD and anxiety. Once the right med kicks in, for some folks the anxiety calms down.

But others may need an anti-anxiety meds, such as Lexapro or Celexa.

Talk to your doctor about your symptoms. I find keeping a daily chart of your focus, anxiety, etc. can help you map out your progress.

Good luck!

stop,and change dose or meds ;good luck

Which medication is it? Straterra gave me headaches for the first bit I started taking it but those went away. But Straterra takes weeks to kick in. Adderall and Ritalin kick in in about 20 minutes.

None of those are for anxiety.
