MS + ADHD

Morning everyone 👋 I have ADHD combined and relapsing remitting MS. I can be have hyperfocus or be very hyperactive with my ADHD and then burnout and suffer seriously bad fatigue from my MS. Does anyone have a similar experience and some tips on how you balance the two?

I have very bad FATIQUE and I've been prescribed a med used for ADHD - It really helps me to not have to FEEL the FATIQUE !! It's Adderall XR - 90mgs/day. Don't think this will help you or not 🙃

This is so difficult to manage, but it’s great that you are aware of it and looking for resolutions. Pacing helps, remembering to rest when you get the opportunity to offset the hyperactivity both physical and mental. Don’t feel guilty about taking time out when you can as it will be beneficial in the long run.
