Reaction to adderall change after starting lexapro

I’m on month 3 of treating anxiety and depression with lexapro. I’ve been on adderall since 2013, with the exception of breaks on weekends and extended full detox breaks. 30 mg IR 2x daily has been my script for the past few years... since starting lexapro (currently taking 15 mg), I don’t feel like I’m reacting to the adderall the same way I used to... like it’s less potent? Anyone else experience this?

Change your antidepressant. I take duloxetine and it works great for me
