#1 The PM Drop Teaches Us How: – Afternoon ADHD Medication Drop is the single most commonplace resistance and difficulty found in taking ADHD medication. In spite of admonitions here at CorePsych about not paying attention to metabolism or dosage strategies, very few either pay attention or attempt to clinically address these several essential PM Stimulant Drop patterns. Even fewer see through this “PM Stimulant Drop” as useful, indeed instructive. This video series will help correct that treatment failure challenge. Remember: you can't treat the specific comorbid ADHD condition unless you recognize it!

#2: The What Drop: ADHD Medications simply stop working, Whaaaa??? Back to the same ol' straightforward inability to concentrate. Why not investigate when the meds simply don't work? Why ignore Treatment Failure? In this video we begin to tease out the importance of discerning dopamine challenges from serotonin challenges. Thousands of patients experience problems with this cognitive/affective conundrum because of the woeful inadequacy of the DSM 5 – the diagnostic coding book.

Cognitive effectiveness results from balances with the neurotransmitters Dopamine, Norepinephrine, Glutamate and PEA. For these basic videos let's keep it simple and focus here on #2 – on Dopamine. Cognition is predominantly dependent upon dopamine. If we miss the fact that the medication simply is not working we find ourselves ignoring the obvious – and far too many do. For reasons of misinformation, philosophy, fear of meds – many reasons – thousands of adults and children don't receive adequate treatment in the PM.

This What Drop, this easily recognizable drop in cognitive effectiveness oftentimes, quite remarkably, remains untreated. Untreated is just that: untreated. Untreated is synonymous with Treatment Failure.

Take a few moments to recognize this important, undeniable, essential ADHD Medication drop in the PM:
