Concentration problems and adderall?!


Question: Concentration problems and adderall!?
i am 20 years old and i have always had concentration problems!. i have tried all of my life so hard to just sit down and do what i need to, but almost everytime i try i either get distracted or i force myself to stay and work and then i get really tired and fall asleep!. my friend suggested taking adderall so i tried one of his pills, which i know is wrong but i already did it, and it helped me tremendously!.

i want to see if i can get a prescription somewhere so it can help me with school work, but i dont want to tell my mother because she already has one of my brothers prescribed to it and is having alot of money issues and i dont want to put the burden on her!.

since i am 20, is there any way i can set up an appointment to see a psychiatrist and get prescribed and pay for it myself without her knowing!? i just dont want her to know because then she'll want to pay for it herself and i dont want to burden her!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Of course you can set up your own appointment! Since you are over 18, there is no need for the doctor's office to involve your parents!. The only issue would be with the insurance company, if you're under your mom's insurance!. Depending on your insurance, they may send a "statement of charges" or something like that, that just says basically what they paid for (such as the doctor's visit) and then your mom would know that you went!.

You have two options, you can go to your regular family doctor, or you can find a psychiatrist!. If you don't have a doctor and don't know how to find one, you can do a search for local helplines or crisis lines and they can give you names and numbers!.

Also be sure and ask your doctor about other medications that may not be so expensive but do the same thing!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
