Close Sjogren's Syndrome

My wife has had Hashimoto's and Sjogren's since age 4 (earliest diagnosis we have heard of) and I'm on a quest to help her improve her quality of life through new/changes to medication, alternative medicine, and lifestyle modification.

Close ADHD / ADD

Since the "fad" of ADD/ADHD hit mainstream in the late 90's/early 2000 days, my brother was convinced he and I have it. I hated the idea of blaming my struggles on not having medication, because I've managed to be successful my whole life by working harder. At age 33 I broke down and figured if a medication will help my quality of life, so what if I see it as a crutch. Vyvanse has changed my outlook completely!!!

Treatments

Vyvanse Working / Worked

Amazing...I've been told for years I'm just depressed or lack focus and organization skills due to lack of discipline. I'm now a believer in the minimal usage of medication in extreme circumstances is perfectly acceptable. I'm 220 lbs. and even if I could benefit from more than my 40 mg I'm staying put until I can stop taking it for more than a day without my loved ones seeing a dramatic change in my behavior. Zero side effects unless you count when I forget to take it!
