Hi! My name is Michelle and I'm new to this. Back in 2003, I was diagnosed with schizoafffective disorder and now just recently I was dually diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder and adhd. I am currently taking adderall xr 30 mg for the adhd. I'm also taking medication for the schizoaffective disorder. When I first started taking the adderall xr, it made me feel kind of drowsy. Now it is causing me where I can't sleep at night. I had a few nights in between where I was able to sleep. Also, It's like I break out in a sweat. I'm not sure if it is due to the medication or if it is just hot that day.
