Add/adhd medication

I used to take adderall for my inability to focus... I took it for about 3 years starting in 2013 and I did WONDERS for me at school, work, and even the gym.

However, I stopped taking it when I found out I was pregnant in 2016 and haven’t took it since. I think I took it in 2017 for a short while but then stopped because I honestly hate taking medication, and it wasn’t a priority for me.

I kind of want to get back on medication because my focus at work, the gym is HORRIBLE... even at home I have trouble completing tasks. I can’t stay on track at all and it has me extremely frustrated on a daily basis.

My only concerns with going back on this particular medication is that in the past, it made me lose hair, I was on the verge of anorexia due to lack of appetite and since it did help me focus I was working out intensely on top of not eating. It also made me break out pretty bad, but that may have been due to lack of nutrients getting into my body and I know I also wasn’t hydrating enough back then too.

I don’t want to solely rely on medication for a quick fix, but I’m pretty lost on how to combat this loss of focus and how distracted I get with everything.

I do have bouts of hyper focus, but that gets broken pretty quickly and I can never get back on task.

I’m just looking for advice on if I should continue adderall or ask for a different type, or see what my doctor would recommend?
