Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Message from my friend:
She can be asked to be referred to Psychiatry-Uk as part of her right to choose, they will agree a shared care pathway with her GP. Psy-uk has all the details in their website. Good luck

Surprised not more chatter in this thread. Is it still taboo / stigma?

36mg now, small changes happening that I think count as progress. Training still on back burner really.

Meds didn't affect my training other than positively to help with consistency. I lost weight. I have stopped meds due to side effects. I have gained weight. I'm more mindful of the fog that causes interruptons to training so consistency has mostly remained but a few more blips. I might start different meds, tbc.

I have OCD traits too, one of which is around pre-race prep. Tonight I've been going in circles with multiple lines of thoughts / tasks and am now left with <5.5 hrs sleep window ahead of race alarm tomorrow but my mind is still firing on all cylinders.

Fistbump to all who experience similar. Upto 1 in 5 people they reckon now.

Got something to say?

Someone I know is being referred by their GP for ADHD. Apparently, and not surprisingly, there is a very long waiting list (six years?!) to be seen

Has anyone on here any experience please of private companies who are legit and recognised by the NHS?
