I am wondering what people's experiences are with stimulants, specifically those people with innattentive type, WITHOUT hyperactivity. If you have innattentive type and suffer from inability to focus multitask, working memory (aka short term memory)problems, etc, my question is:
Which medication works the best for you without causing social withdrawal?
A few years ago I had tried adderall, but it seemed to make me paranoid and socially withdrawn. bear in mind, this was years ago before I had made great strides with my social anxiety, but I am wary of trying it again. I am now on Concerta, and I haven't quite decided if I like it yet.
Therefore please if you could take the time...
a) what medication works the best for inattentive type adhd WITHOUT hyperactivity?
b) what are the effects of that med, if any, on socialization?
and
c) is there any way to prevent tolerance?
