[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 321593"] Since she had the weed habit, I would be concerned about addiction and an underlying anxiety problem. Is your daughter willing to go to a t-doctor? Is she in school? Would she consider the use of a tutor? Perhaps a college student familiar with- the subject. See if she is open to go to a store like Office Max and buying organizing materials. If she is going to school, I would be more willing to entertain the idea of a stimulant medication (assuming a doctor diagnosis's her with ADD of course!). A low dose and regular check ups would be important. However, as with all medications, it is almost always best to try other things first and you have even more reason to be concerned here. It is curious, that she is not in school (I don't think) and asking for this medication. Other things should probably be considered first Please know that there is a natural supplement called PS (long word...can't recall the spelling). IF you go to [URL="http://www.iherb.com"]www.iherb.com[/URL] and check it out, you'll see many posts complimenting the results. I understand it is more commonly used in Europe for ADD and dementia. To the best of my knowledge, there is no risk of addiction and many people have gotten good results. If she is s serious about wanting help concentrating, perhaps this is a good thing to try (along with- possibly a therapist or coach and organizing materials). [/QUOTE]
