Recent change of work status, I lost my health insurance. I do have VA Healthcare, which is what it.
This past year, at 45 years old, I was diagnosed (private sector, two different providers confirming dx) with ADHD and prescribed Ritalin. This unlocked something. One, the mental and emotional insight, seeing failures over the past 40 years and finally 'getting it'. The medication is near magic to me, improving mood, cognitive ability, social anxiety. Mentally, since on this,I have been doing the best I have EVER been.
Now the downside. VA doesn't really like my diagnosis, and won't give it much mind, as I didn't have it while on duty, and it is hard to service connect. They want to push PTSD, depression and anxiety, won't hear me when I say ADHD is the root concern. Also, VA policy is not to prescribe ritalin if there is other substance use, and like Snoop Dog and Martha Stuart, I smoke weed every day. Those fuckers. I left the Army physically broken, and hooked on pain meds. The VA continued to push those meds until I stopped them, then prescribed me cannabis. Now, I can't get a med that helps me tremendously, because I consume cannabis.

Anyway, long story short... anybody recommend an online ADHD clinic, specifically that prescribes? Will be paying cash, no insurance. We'll bash the VA later, now I'm just trying to see a prescribing doctor who will see me .
Thank you.

Just smoke some meth. Way cheaper

ADHD is an advantage. A lot of business owners I know have adhd and only sleep 3-4 hrs a day

Then they’re given adderall which gives them even more energy.

My ex wife used to reward me with adderall pills

Over time you build up immunity to it. I don’t think it should be taken every day. It becomes addicting and dependent. It can’t be good for your liver/kidney as it dehydrates you.

I wish I had adhd

I I fucking hate the VA really depends on what clinic you go to. I've had the worst time getting shit that's clearly documented rated but I have no problem getting all the shit other people want, but the meds I want I can't get.

If you had ADHD Adderall would not effect you how it affects you now trust me. I'm on a very high dose and I feel nothing.

I took a chance and checked ADC. They don't carry it. Sorry brother, thought that would be easy.

I know someone who has ADHD and get scripted via phone conversation checkup but it's a semi-local counseling place. Maybe try to look for something like that or just search ADHD online. I have a feeling it's probably not cheap though.

Ok ,, cus I know , I just know , and no one needs to feel like that.

This is one of my Dr's , Dr Sulak is head of it but he has an entire staff. They do medical cannabis , osteopathy , ketamine therapy and other things. It was this dude and his team that first diagnosed my PTSD and other things.

I don't know what if anything they can do for ADHD , if you look on their site under services you will see a drop down for out of state contacts and consultations. Can't hurt to contact them and talk for a few.

Good Luck man !!
You ever need to talk , holler , scream at the fucking aliens and don't want to be alone , I always got my ears on just hit me up.
