Will they think I'm a drug-seeker?

Thanks for the advice. I got a new pdoc yesterday, and she put me on remeron for slepp (instead of trazadone), AND she put me on Wellbutrin, says it will give me a boost in the morning. But I will definitely be looking into straterra.

I slept like a baby last night, took the wellbutrin this morning and now i cant sleep.

If you have a relatively clean record of no past drug abuse history they won't think you're drug seeking automatically although some will always be wary, just depends how relaxed your doctor is. I've had pdocs who would prescribe anything under the sun and some who are very tight and cautious.

It can be done, I decided I wanted to go back on stimulants again and gradually just went through the steps of asking my pdoc and using the fact that I did have a previous childhood diagnosis of ADHD, albeit I didn't take the medication as a child. Soon enough I was doing the adult adhd tests again which I only had to reduce my attention span a little more than normal to exaggerate my poor concentration skills and before I knew it the psychologist had me on 45mg Ritalin daily. Unfortunately because I actually DID abuse it, it ended very badly and I don't have access to it anymore and suffer from a chronic feeling of lethargy, as if I have done crystal meth and feel like nothing feels the same anymore after doing it. I'm on mood stabilisers and have a BP diagnosis, I am going to try and talk to my new doc about starting something stimulating, and obviously without intending on abusing it this time, because I did get some therapeutic benefit, but I enjoyed the pep without a doubt 100%

I abused adderall and had to lose it. They consider vyvanse a reasonable option for people who have a bad history but need a stimulant but I was afraid I would get a taste for stimulants again (I had to do a step down with adderall and it was not fun, but I so enjoyed it when I had big doses) so I went with the straterra. But that was my choice - the pdoc that had knowledge of my substance abuse disorder offered me vyvanse. You might ask about vyvanse, but I would caution you to think about what led me to turn it down - can you handle a little taste and not go looking for more?
