And non-stimulants are so subtle that they're not even worth the cost of a visit to the psychiatrist. I don't understand why they exist when they do nothing for the forgetfulness nor the depression, the two biggest ailments I have that are caused by ADHD.

@Psythik @Thann they work better than stimulants for some of us, with less dodgy side effects.

You might just have depression cause strattera works great for me and there is a stark difference in my ability to concentrate and get work done.

I thought so too but I already tried every antidepressant under the sun before getting an ADHD diagnosis... Think it might be time for a third opinion.

Ever tried psychedelic therapy? I've heard of good results with that for people resistant to all other options, when taken under direct supervision and guidance of an experienced therapist. Not a clue how much something like that would cost though.
