My ADHD have be worse than ever since becoming a exotic mother. Any direction?
I was diagnosed when I was 13, and now at 29 it's solely gotten worse since becoming a new mother. I spoke with a doctor that said maybe Zoloft be my answer. I think it may have helped a TINY bit, but I am so fustrated near my condition. I just want to be the best mother possible to my daughter.
A lot of people are saying "It's because you're a current mom." But I had it my whole life and I know that it's gotten worse. It's not something that only just goes away.
If anyone else has been surrounded by this situation, what worked for you? Thanks.
I don't have ADHD, but hormone shifts and vitamin deficiency will be paid me feel like i do. I would really suggest getting on some good B vitamins - or only continue taking your prenatal vitamins to help you stay focused as much as possible.
being a parent make you more scatterbrained than ever. if you're thinking about medication, zoloft wouldn't really be a good option... and if you're not wanting an amphetamine type (like ritalin or adderal) try out wellbutrin. that's the one that help me. I'm 29 and was going back to school after a time away and have a lot of trouble focussing.
personally, i don't like the amphetamine-type meds... they can increase anxiety and such... though they enjoy the beneficial side effect of weight loss... haha.
Move from task to task, don't stay on one thing, it help. Calm music helps. Hang with a friend from church that will understand.
are you fit to be a good mother if your ADHD is getting worse? If you cannot definitely answer that question Yes, you need to get intervening assistance.
Answers: Zoloft? That won't do a thing, coffee - uppers like Ritalin, not Zoloft. Doc's confusing postpartum depression with ADHD.
For me? I own ADHD, hyperactive and otherwise - it mostly interferes with my interactions with people, I act in response too quickly and often over the top and don't read social cues well. I basically stay away from people when I know it will be stressful, like when there are profoundly of people, and concentrate on the baby - ignore what doesn't thing. Lists help, including writing a time frame with "eat breakfast" "shower", sounds stupid but it help me. Lists, lots of external lists that you look at and will see frequently. Really, no antidepressant has helped me beside ADHD, coffee helps, as does routine and lists - the best has other been meds but of course since I nurse I did not use my meds and have be off them for 5 years plus now.
