I moved here from out of state a year ago and have gone through 2 new patient appointments that I had to book 3 months out each time just to be told that they won’t prescribe stimulants. One of the doctors at least referred me to a doctor that specializes in mental health but turns out that office called me to get me scheduled for an appointment and they informed that they don’t even prescribe stimulants either. I wanted to scream when they told me that!

My backstory: I was clinically diagnosed with ADHD over 10 years ago by a psychiatrist I had been seeing every 3 months since my diagnosis. I have religiously been taking my medication everyday since. It has made such a huge impact on my quality of life and helped me tremendously.

I’m just at a loss of what to do. Any advice or anyone with any similar experiences is greatly appreciated.
