Every screening and official diagnostic I’ve taken has me scoring max ADHD points and every time someone describes a symptom I’m left confused that other people don’t have them.

Will my personality change? I feel like being a disorganized disheveled loud interrupter is most of my personality at this point idk.

I’ve never done any stimulants beyond drinking a million coffees per day so i have some anxiety about this

      The less commonly prescribed ADHD meds that are still common-ish imo are:

      Atomoxetine
      Guanfacine
      Bupropion
      Viloxazine
      Venlafaxine

      The much less commonly prescribed ADHD meds imo are:

      Methamphetamine (not a joke btw - Desoxyn is prescribed in the US occasionally)
      Clonidine
      Modafinil (technically still a stimulant but without most of the issues that may come with stimulations such as potential for addiction)
      Tricyclics like desipramine

      There’s a few more that are really off the beaten path such as amantadine, which I’m a bit of an evangelist for, as well. It’s worth keeping in mind that non-stimulants aren’t a class in and of themselves so there’s not a huge amount in common between, say, atomoxetine and guanfacine.
