Apologies if this thread is not appropriate, in terms of asking where to get Ritalin.
I'm 99% sure I have ADHD or more accurately ADD, as I am not hyperactive yet have every other symptom. I'm sure emotional trauma has made the symptoms a whole lot worse in adulthood but processing such issues is very difficult. My brother also has ADHD diagnosed as a child but doesn't take medication for it anymore. I attempt to improve the symptoms via self improvement, strategies and trying to process a traumatic past but for many years, my life feels as though it's completely on hold. I can never focus on anything if there's any form is distraction around. If I'm in a room full of people or there's lots going on around me, my brain just doesn't work. I can't maintain normal relationships, have no motivation in life whatsoever. Everything is about instant gratification and long term goal planning is near impossible no matter how hard I try.
I've never tried medication for ADHD but other dopamine increasing recreationally drugs improve my focus massively, therefore I think Ritalin may help me. Ideally I wouldn't want to be on it every day/for life but at least it would give the option to take something if I have an important day ahead or really need to focus. I've been on a waiting list for assessment for ADHD from the NHS for over 2 years and am fed up of waiting. I'm wondering of anyone knows of anywhere I can order Ritalin or similar to the UK? I can't find anywhere I can order it from.
