Tip #1
Don’t underplay it
Most people walk into their assessment trying to look more "together" than they are. Don't - your psychiatrist needs the real picture to make an accurate diagnosis.
Tip #2
Give it 6-10 weeks
Finding your right ADHD dose takes time. The first dose almost never feels right - that's normal, and it's why we review you every two weeks during titration. The goal isn't speed. It's a dose you can stay on for years.
