A member asked:
I am trying to figure out if i should go to a doctor for medication for adhd since i was diagnosed when was 22 and never prescribed any.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: There are many medications for adhd, but that is not the first line of treatment. There are effective interventions like mindfulness and braingym practices, and natural supplements like omega 3 fatty acids that can be helpful. Also best to check the cause, which is sometimes habit or even substance sensitivities.
