Hi,
>Where are you in England?
West Yorkshire.
>With Concerta (and all the methylphenidate drugs) I get tunnel vision and am much less distractible.
So.. you don't 'hyperfocus' when you're on Adderall?
What sort of thing does MPH make you hyperfocus on? .... ie. do you simply end up doing more of the things that you find interesting and less of the things that you ought to be doing?
>I had read a discussion of some clinics that were exceptions to this rule.
Yes, there are a very small number of private psychiatrists in the UK that recognise adult ADD. They are expensive though, not sure I can afford! I doubt that there are any National Health Service pdocs who treat adult ADD.
>It may be worth emailing some of the big names in US ADHD and asking for recommendations?
Who do you think I should email?
Thank you,
Ed.
