Atypical/Need help : And I do not mean it in a bad way. Be sure to discuss these concerning symptoms with your prescribing doctor(s).

ADD: Is usually due to a combination of genetic risk and poor oxidation of brain from an excess of "empty calories". The drugs may be making things worse. What you really need is a good diet free from all the high calorie "junk", especially the sweet stuff, including sweeteners, diet drinks, especially those with caffeine. Take big doses of b complex and magnesium + multivitamin.
