Seroquel & Lamictal for Adult ADHD?
So I was prescribed Seroquel & Lamictal for Adult ADHD and told to stop taking the
Adderall
my PCP prescribed. Has anyone else seen these drugs prescribed for adult ADHD?

Can you develop an Adderall tolerance?
I have read about resetting your system for
Adderall
tolerance. I teach, so I took a break from it for 2 months in the summer, but nothing changed. I know it isn't a weight loss drug, however I really miss that side effect.

Balancing Medications for ADHD and Anxiety
I tried
Adderall
a couple of years ago, which helped with ADHD but increased my anxiety and often put me in a manic state. Anxiety meds make me sluggish and sleepy. Can a balance be achieved, or will I just have to pick one over the other?

Adderall and Guanfacine side effects with sleeping
She is on
Adderall
and Guanfacine. For recently she could not go back to sleep when she woke up middle of the night, and sometimes she couldn’t fall sleep easily as before. She used to be falling asleep very fast. I don’t know if that’s side effects from the medication that she is taking now.

Got diagnosed with adhd last week. Prescribed Adderall xr 30mg, suddenly experiencing crash. Help
I’ve researched online and it’s saying it could be an
adderall
crash but it’s only giving me solutions to people who have completely quit
adderall
, not for someone who is still taking it.

Low-active COMT genotype and stimulant therapy
We started off with
Adderall
IR 10mg. In the past, I have tolerated Ritilan and
Adderall
just fine. So, it was a surprise to me when I started to experience symptoms that were not a problem in past treatments.

New to community - in tech sales
I started taking
adderall
at age 10 and have run the whole gambit of every medication type. That said, I no longer take any as I just can't see myself taking such a strong stimulant for my whole life and I did notice it start to hamper critical thinking skills.

New Diagnosis
I have tried
Adderall
, Ritalin, Vyvanse and Concerta to no avail. They did help manage my ADHD pretty well but I just couldn't stand the neck discomfort. I'm wondering if anyone has experienced this and if theres something else that worked for you.

Vyvanse vs Adderall XR/IR Experiences
Has anyone had the same experience with Vyvanse but more success with the
adderall
xr? I haven’t asked my doc yet but is it possible to split the Vyvanse in half and dose twice a day?

Looking for ADHD coach for my 20 year old son
He was diagnosed in 5th grade and has been on
Adderall
and Vivace over the years. He can’t take concerta because he’s allergic. He functioned on meds until his junior year in high school and then he started self-medicating with pot. He was sooo skinny no appetite. Very difficult time.

Adderall and Sports
My son says that when he plays sports after taking his
Adderall
that he doesn't feel like he does as well and feels like he isn't "in the game." Has anyone else had their kids say this? We give it to him before games to help but I am nervous we are actually making it worse.

"Sure I'll clean my room but I need an Adderall"
I need an
Adderall
". My 16 yo takes
Adderall
on school days. If she has to do anything that she thinks requires concentration on the weekend (organizing, make up work, etc), she asks for an
Adderall
. I do often say - you don't need a 20MG XR
Adderall
to clean your room for an hour...

Reaction to adderall change after starting 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

do extended release stimulants cause more muscle issues than immediate release?
Seeing dr. this week and thinking of switching from ER Vyvanse(only way it comes) to
Adderall
-not extended release. Has anyone experienced more muscle pain with ER than immediate release? Tried methylphenidate ER,
Adderall
ER and Vyvanse. All gave me severe muscle pain in neck and shoulders.

I’m in 70 mg vyvanse and 30 mg adderall
I can’t function. I feel sleepy. How is that possible? I’m so lazy as if I have hangover traits. I only took half dosage of olanzepine and fluoxetine last night. I can’t seem to get myself going today even as doing physical labor. Having a rough time. Feeling stuck.

Guanfacine- 1st Day
We have tried Strattera,
Adderall
, and Focalin that did not work for him either we did not see any change or made his tics unmanageable. Also might not be the proper timing for him with those meds. Thank you for your support!
