Topic: ADD or weed or anxiety

jump? started this discussion 15 years ago #10,802

My memory is pretty terrible. When I play poker I often forget who was first to raise and such during hands. This happened when I wasn't smoking weed, too.

I have great difficulty concentrating and putting my thoughts into words.

Like, I can think something in my head, but when I go say it or type it, I can't word it correctly. Like, I have the idea in my head, but I can't express it properly. Sometimes I say the dumbest shit as a result. Again, I've always been like this, so I doubt it's the weed.

Do you think its ADD, anxiety, or weed?

I can only do two options on my phone, I doubt it's weed, but you can write that in.

I'm the same way, but I thought it's because pills fucked up my brain.

I'm gonna make an appointment today and try to get on Xanax and adderall. I'm sure asking for two of the most abused and addictive prescriptions won't be difficult.

What kind of pills? Were you taking them recreationally or for treatment?

Lol. I want my Adderall back. Also, something that I've noticed is that my thoughts are way too fast for me to say something correctly or even type it. I'm not a slow typer, but I'm definitely faster than the average person, especially using just one hand. See, I forgot why I was bringing this up, but it's kinda related? Maybe?

I was prescribed oxycodone at a young age for my migraines. Took them almost every day for legitimate reasons, then slowly became an addiction. Going on 3 years sober off of them. Feels pretty good. I was on them for a good 5-6 years.

Goddamn. Both my brothers were addicted to pills/heroin (maybe meth).

Shit... I just read some drug was great for migraines... Mushrooms maybe? I forget.

Shit sucks man. I would never snort anything or shoot up anything though. I want to try shrooms, but meh. Pretty sober these days. Maybe take one hit of weed sometimes, but not every few months or something.

LSD.
@OP
If you suggest you need a certain medication by name, you better have the symptoms and a clear UA to back it up. If you are an adult, any illegal/non-prescribed drugs that show up are a red flag. If the practice is in a building that has a lab or has a lab in its network, they WILL UA you before they prescribe any medications that have a high probability to be abused or resold.
Im not saying all of this to make you feel like crap or anything, I already have jumped through hoops to get the medications I required.

Wow, OP, this happens to me as well. I know what I want to say and can formulate an idea just fine, but actually articulating my thoughts into words when talking to someone is so difficult.

I'm kind of an anxious person, but I don't know that anxiety is the cause of it. ADD maybe, but I'm not really hyperactive, more just unable to focus.

Are you hyperactive at all?

UA? Urinalysis? No drug detection in that.

Anyway, I have a long relationship with my dr and a history of anxiety. I also worked at a doctor's office. I know what pill chasers sound like, so I assume my doctor does too.

I wont be tested. If I was, I'd just say "can't pee." They don't collect urine/blood at the office. If my doctor wouldn't fill it without a drug screen, I'd admit to admit to smoking weed.

I'm not worried. I'm sure in certain areas it might be differnet. Id never tell a hospital I smoked weed (they won't take you as seriously if you have pain. My friend is a nurse and warned me about it, many medical proffesionals are extremely undereducatd when it comes to mj). I feel comfortable telling my dr.

i got prescribed benzos for anxiety. you just have to make it sound really crucial and your doc will go for it. never tried for adderall though.

i have a horrible memory from too much E and weed everyday, a particularly fatal combination. months of my life are black due to this. and alcohol. and benzos.

I get chlonazepam, but I take it to sleep. I need something stronger for anxiety. Preferably something else as ice been taking chlonazepam for years and have a tolerance built up already, though my pills are only .5mg, and I generally only take 1-3, so I'm probably ok if he just increases the dose to 5mg or something.
