I had problems all my life. When I was a kid they put me on Dilantin thinking that would help my outbursts. THAT was a mistake.

I work for a high tech firm. I was on the verge of getting fired and was recommended by a frind with a ADHD kid to get tested. This was when I was in my late twenties. Low and behold, I had ADHD. I began taking Dexedrine and my life turned around. My relationships are healthy and I'm doing well in my job (until recently, but that's another medication story). I still had to learn all the appropriate behaviors but with the Dex I was able to do it.

Good luck.
