ADHD / ADD Support Group

I'm on Wellburtin but not for the add mostly for the ocd and bipolar II. For the add I'm on strattera. I'm also on carbmazepine mood stablizers right now this combination is working keeping me balanced for now.

im on welbutrin for depression and adhd. the initial dose of 150 mg along with other meds did not help but once they kicked it up to 300 mg i noticed an improvement in an hour or two. are you having trouble with it ?

The first time I was on Wellbutrin - for about 6 months - after the first month I could go to school, get my work done, file my paperwork and keep my room clean. It was amazing. For 6 months I was on top of things. Then I lost my healthcare and stopped taking it. Downhill from there....

Yup i hear that anabetta. I was the same with other meds. Thankfully i dont think ill be loosing my ins. anytime soon :) I am taking a number of medications. Just found out a month ago i am not bipolar with depression. I am ADHD and depression. Kind of an interesting turn around for me but the 400 mg of welbutrin is helping along with a few others

I have depression and ADD. I took wellbutrin for 2 months, and it helped me with both. Unfortunately, it began to make me nervous and I had to be taken off of it. However, if you have no anxiety issues, I would highly reccomend giving it a try. It really helped me focus, and I was only taking 150mg SR once in the morning, which is a low dose. I was able to feel it in a day or two, but the full results took about a month or so to level out for me.

Welbutrin does ok for me for my adhd and depression. im on 400mg a day of welbutrin and that seems to help too we shall see

wellbutrin can help somewith adhd but not much. i am on both wellbutrin and adderall.

im on abilify, welbutrin, xanax, paxil, and lamictal

There's a Dr. in California, Dr. Amen, who says there are 6 types of ADD, and not all of them respond to stimulants. His website is very informative. google "amenclinics". I had no idea there was more than 1 type. He gives info. on how to keep your brain healthy. I am on prozac, ritalin and lamictal. prozac for depression, ritalin for ADD, and lamictal for an impulse disorder my doctor said I have after doing a brain spect scan. I am curious for what "Greg1973" is taking lamictal. I am curious if wellbutrin could take the place of ritalin and prozac. I live in Singapore and medicine is very expensive, so I'd like to take 1 pill instead of 2 if possible. --Question for the people who take it for ADD-- Does it help, and how does it help? What symptoms does it control? I personally have trouble getting motivated to start stuff, and I get distracted when I'm anxious, and I daydream. Thanks for any input.
