Yeah ibuprofen has been pretty good for my neck pain.

For ADHD, no. There is no OTC med or supplement that has been scientifically shown to help with ADHD symptoms.

I had someone introduce me to DHEA which I felt helped but not to the extent of meds. I have another friend who swears by one of those mushroom powder teas.

Honestly OP I never have and I have tried a whole bunch of things. I went down a Tik Tok rabbit hole and bought all these supplements and things people said were working and nothing seemed to work for me like adderall does sadly.

Any women here with lean PCOS? I do not ovulate on my own (metformin regulated my periods but I still don’t ovulate) and am moving from three cycles of Clomid/IUI to IVF soon. No other issues have been found other than my PCOS (HSG shows tubes open). Curious about your experiences. And the reason I mentioned lean PCOS is because it seems for others with PCOS part of the fertility path is diet/exercise/weight loss but I am already very tiny.

Yesterday I officially got diagnosed with ADHD and MDD. I knew that I was feeling depressed but somehow getting diagnosed made me feel worse. I feel like I am a big failure.
