Maybe you need to change doctors. There are many people who have been helped to lead a better life after taking medication.
Also, most ppl with adhd, (which is part of what I inherited),
are very intelligent people and KNOW that their livers and kidneys filter these medications and they are extremely concerned about side effects and long term use of these medications.
I myself, think I will live longer, but I know I and my family, will live happier, bc of these meds.
I don't find much in this life that is perfect except: grandbabies! :-D
