ADHD Video: Dr. Kenny interviews Adult ADD Coach Bonnie Mincu
Posted by: | CommentsOn a recent family vacation to New York City, I had the privilege of meeting Bonnie Mincu, a respected Adult ADD/ADHD Coach. I met her for breakfast at a great little place in Greenwich Village. Although we have spoken on the phone and by email, this was the first time that we met in person.

Does Vyvanse Work?
Posted by: | CommentsVyvanse is the newest medicine for ADD and ADHD. It uses an innovative approach so that it is an ADHD ADD medication that cannot be abused.
As a Canadian doctor, I am not able to prescribe Vyvanse, because it is not yet available outside of the US.
So, my biggest question is: Does Vyvanse work?

I want to hear from anyone who has tried Vyvanse, or even considered trying Vyvanse.
