so my husband was diagnosed with ADHD after he got back from iraq, he was perscribed Adderall xr. He has beed on it for about 6wks. since he is still in the "trial" stage they only gave him 10mg capsulsm, the sad thing is in 1 day i fgured out more about his dissorder and his medication than anything the army told him. he recieved no counseling what so ever on his disorder or the medication. i had to inform him how serious it was, like not to take it to late at night, espically since he already has trouble sleeping. But here is where im running in to problems, he forgets to take his medication or forgets where he puts it. for a while he would get up earlier (4 instead of 430) go to work take his adderall, sleep in his car for half hour and wake up ready to go for the day. I cant reminde him every morning to take his medication and the times when i do, i get an aggrivated " I KNOW". I think he forgot to either sechedual or go to his follow up appointment which he needs because the 10mpg only lasts him a few hour and he has started taking 2 aday.(when he remembers to). It is impossible for him to be on a set sechedual right now with the army. he is clearing post to go to a new duty station so he is being pulled in 13 diff directions. and even when he has "normal" work nothing is ever consistant. and with his very F*K the world attitude its hard to give even the slightest help without a backlash. Is there anyone going threw this too. I know i cant go to the army or his superiors for help, it just dosent work that way.
