ADHD and anxiety - alternatives to stimulants

Today we saw my DD's psychiatrist and agreed a fourth medication to try. We have already been through 2 types of stimulants/methylphenidate and atomoxitine without success. Main issue is that she feel down on the medication and says it changes who she is. Anyone got any alternative suggestions? I have just bought her some Omega 3 and D3 supps, but I am not convinced...

Intuniv is perfect for those who cannot tolerate stimulants . Our D's (12) takes 2mg daily. A higher dose was not suitable

Atomoxetine isn't a stimulant though, it's an anti depressant? Do you mean alternatives to medication generally?
