Guanfacine was a miracle for me. I couldn’t tolerate stimulants and while the initial fatigue was significant, my focus improved significantly and quickly. Not as suddenly or dramatically as a stimulant (which I was able to take after a couple of years of guanfacine, I was in bad shape at first).
I still take a small dose as an adjunct along with a stimulant.
I was on guanafacine forever, and it never helped. Does it do anything for you?
Chiming in here.
