My parents were super surprised that I got the diagnosis. I'm like...
Getting diagnosed during the medication shortage has been interesting however. I'm about to ask my Dr if there are some alternatives that are more likely in stock at pharmacies. Adderral is MIA everywhere around me right now.
I was prescribed atomoxetine and it works pretty great for me, I've got Inattentive ADHD though so YMMV.
I also only have to go to my doctor once every 3 months to get refills for it, which is pretty cool
Nice, I am going to look into that. I am definitely going to try to switch to something. I can't be dealing with this adderral wack-a-mole every 30 days...
