Do short acting or longer acting stimulants work better for your school-related focus needs?
I’ve tried vyvanse and Concerta and have found that I never can reach a focus peak with the longer acting stimulant medication- they don’t seem to prescribe
Adderall
or Dexyamphetamine often where I live, but since I have a tried to take meds around my best focus times- 4-11pm, I still feel that I would

Ritalin and or Adderall
I read something a while back that the
Adderall
didn’t seem as bad and was longer lasting. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks, Alan

14 year old son starting Adderall
His psychiatrist said that he sees positive benefits with teenagers and
adderall
. At this point, I'm willing to try anything but I've looked up some of the effects of
adderall
, and it has made me nervous.

Does Adderall make you feel cold?
Do all stimulants do this or is it just
Adderall
?

Adderall is backordered. Any other medications to take?
My regular prescription for
Adderall
is backordered and no pharmacies around me seem to have any in stock nor can they give me an answer. My doctor has not been much of a help through this (that is another story that will be dealt with at another time) but has anyone else experienced this?

Losing my best friend
She only sent me a screenshot about the adverse effects of my latest prescribed medication, which is
Adderall
(a stimulant), for my ADHD. Her photo was joined with a 'you gotta be careful with the stuff you are taking'.

Are stimulants suppose to be temporary or lifelong?
I then got on
Adderall
10mg IR and it was amazing for me! I ended up building a tolerance I guess because it went from lasting 6 hours to lasting 3 hours. My psychiatrist changed my medication to
Adderall
XR 15mg and I’m very hopeful it will be better since that is suppose to last me 8-12 hours!

New Member with ADHD
I was prescribed
Adderall
XR and it made such a difference. My husband was especially happy. My question, after taking for 3yrs it doesn’t seem to be working as well. My brain thoughts are everywhere and I catch myself interrupting people (my husband) more and more.

Rant: I live inside a rock tumbler / emotional dysregulation / med process frustration/ Vyvance shockingly $$$$
After 4 weeks on 10mg
Adderall
, I told my psychiatrist it's not working for me except for eating issues, and the days I took 20mg I didn't like how it made my body feel.

PPMS and Stimulants
Also, I already had been taking
Adderall
for about 10+ years for adult ADHD. I do find the Modafinil is helpful for the fog. Is anyone else on either one of these meds for MS? If so, how are they working for you? Thank you! Gracy

Inattentive ADD - trying to find right medication - stimulants make her defiant and avoid schoolwork, nonstimulants haven’t been successful
After daytrana patch (or
adderall
XR at a different time) - refuses to do schoolwork, is defiant to me and is rude to her little sister. And then is hyper socially aware and seems insecure when out among her peers. She cried that it’s “hard to make friends” and it breaks my heart.

Adderall and irritability
of
Adderall
XR and I wonder if others have this experience of when it wears off, feeling extreme agitation. I find myself being very short tempered and angry when there's no good cause.

Artists ADHD and medication
I was diagnosed with ADHD as a kid and prescribed medication (It was ritalin or
adderall
I can’t remember which, I might have done trials with each) This was in the early 2000’s.

Adderall in the morning and coffee in the evening.
My psychiatrist prescribed me
Adderall
(10mg) once a day. It tapers down after 1pm, which sucks because I feel that it is working for me so well! I try to drink strong coffee but it does nothing for me.

Am I fixating too much? Is it part of ADHD?
Ever since I’ve been taking
Adderall
I’ve been fixating on it so much! I’m happy to finally get the help I need, so happy that I have researched a bunch of stuff on stimulants, non stimulants, therapy, and the stigma of it all.
