Hi I Was Diagnosed With ADHD When I Was Around

Hi I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was around 12 years old and have been on and off medication since then. I was seeing a doctor for it. And I was on adderall for awhile but she ripped me off of it with no explanation what so ever and began trying me on the non stims. Which I did willingly try. Adderall worked for me well, but I did get headaches a lot while taking it, which was due to me not drinking enough water. I would like to go back on a stim but she won't listen to me at all she even tried me on Prozac which I had worse side effects on that. My issue is I'm tired of being a test subject. I ha something that actually work and helped me and was taken off to be put on something that doesn't. I lost a job over this. And have been off of it for almost a year. I don't even care if it's adderall I just want something that works.
