Transformative Effects: How ADHD Medication Changed Lives

by Cynthia Hammer, MSW, Author of the book, Living with Inattentive ADHD

Input from adults about how they experienced ADHD medication.

·         Like putting glasses on my brain

·         Night and day for me

·         College GPA before 2.5; GPA after 4.0

·         For me….a resounding YES!

·         I need medication like I need to breathe. 

·         Massive.  I don’t hate myself anymore because I actually feel competent.

·         I don’t really notice when I have taken my meds, but I definitely notice when I haven’t.

·         Ummm YEAH lol.  No meds and I feel like I’m mentally wading through a swamp.

·         Huge.  It’s HUGE.

·         It is the difference between a dead-end job making $45K/yr and a career making $100K/yr.

·         Took a while to find the right one, but the benefits are clear and significant.
