ADHD and Weed - is it okay?

I wouldn't take that medicine! My parents once tried to put me on ridalin..but I never took it. Check www.erowid.org for any negative side effects. I found that a shot of jaegermeister can help me study quite well.

 

i had adhd as a child.. i still have it to some degree as an adult..i smoke a crap load of weed... also when my parents tried medication back in the day it just messed me up i wouldnt recomend going that route i'd try to learn to controll it. my advice would be to try it and see weed helps alot of people with thier add and its known to be pretty damn harmless so i wouldnt worry about it. i'd be more worried about the medication by itself since weed cant hurt you. just test the waters a bit and perhaps not smoke an entire 8th the first time or anything

 

Hmmm I've often wondered about the effect. It could go both ways.

Add, adhd and addh are not yet solid diagnoses and noone knows the real cause and effects. But the most probable theory is that hyperactives' brains are understimulated in certain regions, thus causing them to constantly feel tired. The use hyperactivity to keep themselves awake.

Now Ritalin and the new Concerta (yup, got'em both in the room behind me with all the colourful pills) are amphetamins. So they are supposed to take away that feeling of tiredness. Now you can imagine yourself what would happen if someone with adhd smoked weed. I wouldnb't recommend hash at least. But some dank that gives you a real energy blast...try it. And tell me what happens. Maybe I can convince our head psychiatrist to buy thc pills

 

i have add/adhd!!!!!!!!!im fuckin crazyyyyyy on weeeeeeddddddd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

adderall use to shut me up.

 

I have adhd... and i smoke bud like everyday. I still take my concerta in the morning and usually smoke around 10:00 or 11:00 it doesnt seem to have any affect that ive noticed, But hey just to be safe ide do what pintyhet said and not smoke an 8th on your first time.

 

ive got add and it helps me concentrate better.

 

why dont you ask a doctor instead of a bunch of stoners lol ....

 

Man I remember when I was on ritalin for 2 years, skinny as hell and I kept bouncing off the walls. :|
