starting off my name is Whitney and Im 18 years old. I have always struggled with concentrating,procrastinating, Im always forgetting things..etc. I also talk ALOT I was voted class most talkative if that says anything. So my mother always thought I had ADHD but she never wanted to take me to the doctor because she figured I would grow out of it. Finally my senior year I just couldnt take all the pressure because I was in some very difficult classes so she took me to my family doctor that but me on LEXAPRO. This medication all I ever did was sleep and I gained about 20 lbs. So this year I was tested twice and both said I had ADHD. I went to a place but I felt as though he was more interested in other things than my ADHD he put me on about five different vitamins none of which were for my actual problem. I recently moved to a different place and I am wondering where I should go and what I should say to get the right treatment.
