Boyfriend stealing adderall/distrust
My boyfriend has stolen my adderall and it took months before I confronted him because I felt like it was me going crazy, being paranoid. When I did confront him he would ensure me that it must be me with an issue/taking too much but I knew it wasn’t the case. I got to the point I starting believing

Why do people compare the street drug speed to stimulants? I assume there is a difference and it’s not a clone?
I’m new to stimulants (Vyvanse/Elvanse). Here is an excerpt from the American version of The Guardian paper: In 2014, the adult market for pharmaceutical stimulants in the US overtook the long-reigning children’s market. Thanks to the eagerness of many doctors to prescribe so-called ADHD drugs, every

Antidepressants for ADHD and aggression
Hello everyone! I just wanted to start by saying how grateful I am to be part of this community. The connections have been a saving grace for me. I am also wondering if anyone has trialed antidepressant medication for their child with ADHD/ODD/anxiety. Focalin XR has helped but only mildly. My 7 year

Hello
Hi, My name is Christine and I’m 29 years old. I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 15 and put on adderall but then changed to vyvanse the next year but because of how it was making me feel I haven’t been on any since I was 17 which has been hard because of my lack of focus and concentration. But some

What to do when Adderall XR stops working.
I've been taking
Adderall
XR
for several months now and it doesn't seem to be working any more. Anyone had this problem? What did you do?

Confused about Adderall adjustment
Hey everyone! I was just diagnosed last month with ADHD at 40 years old. Talk about mind blowing!!! So my meds are still being titrated. But I don’t think I understand the process. Started with 10mg IR once a day. Felt great in the morning after 1 hour and 20 mins but INSANE by 12 o’clock. Dr. switched

ADHD, Anxiety, Destructiveness
He takes
Adderall
10 mg
XR
and lexapro 10mg. We tried 20mg lexapro but it almost made him more impulsive and anxious (backfired on us). He is very impulsive almost all the time and hyper, loud, destructive and so curious that it gets him in trouble.

Orlando,Fl
Has anyone worked with a good child psychologist in Orlando,Fl ? My nearly 8year old son has severe ADHD and has been having difficulty with feelings of anger and opposition. A lot of his anger is demonstrated at school and he is subsequently frequently in trouble. He is currently taking Focalin XR in

ALWAYS get a second opinion
I have been through 5 psychiatrists in my life. 3 were absolutely terrible and didn't know what they were doing. This is very common in psychiatry. The quality control is probably the worst of all fields of medicine. It is a guessing game. No lab work to refer to, no ultrasound or biopsy. It's a trial

I need to vent!! Please, needing empathy and understanding.
I take Adderall and my doctors office policy states that I must communicate every month to refill my prescription. The reason for my vent is.... I DID NOT remember to call on line (website)?...O'yes I do...about ten times a day.....but everyone knows that thoughts come in and out just as fast

Newly diagnosed
I was diagnosed with ADHD earlier this week. I have a question about adderall. I’m sure I’ll be on a low dose because I’m sensitive to medications.
