Frustrated with Vyvanse....
I had awful crashes and a little jittery/anxious with
Adderall
. I was really hoping Vyvnase would be a game changer.... Any input or personal experiences would be very much appreciated! I see my doc on Monday but I'm just frustrated and, apparently very hyper-focused!

Adderall and drug tests
We have both been diagnosed with inattentive ADD and have been successfully treated with
Adderall
for about 12 years now. My husband and I were going thru a rough patch and he chose to talk to a social worker who told him That I sounded like I had ADD! Wow!

** Trigger warning** I don't know where to start...
So she loaded me up with
adderall
and antidepressant pretty much from 5th grade until I graduated. It left me with a burnout feeling once I graduated. I had no control over what was put into my body and felt almost malnourished from the lack of food and nutrients.

Stage IV Side effects catching up with me
Incidentally one of my mom's friends is ADHD, takes
Adderall
and has no side effects from her chemo for breast cancer either. Coincidence?

New here-Vyvanse works wonders for binge eating but does NOTHING for focus (30mg to 60mg over 10 weeks) also on Wellbutrin 300mg
Doc suggested last month if going up to 60mg wasn't enough, adding a small dose of
Adderall
in the afternoon (5-10mg). But I'm thinking I may need to change up meds altogether.

22 diagnosed with IRBBB?
Some side notes, I did abuse
adderall
a few years ago and I did drink for a while until stopping as well. I sometimes wonder if I had accidentally messed with the way my heart beats or if it’s something that could progress into something serious.

I started off on 5mg Of
Adderall
and went right into 10mg after a week and I supposed it helped a little bit. I am no longer napping during the day which is huge for me. It has helped with some other things but it has only been a slight change. We talked about it and agreed to up my dosage to 20mg.

adderall tics and risperidone
Currently trying
adderall
20 mg (13 yrs old) but she gets tics. So her Psychiatrist prescribed risperidone to take at night (1 mg) which has not helped with her tics but doesn help her to fall asleep. I feel we should try something else as this isn't doing what it should after all this time.

She still recommended we try
Adderall
xr. But he has not shown any improvement. He is agitated and he isn’t focusing any better. I wanted to ask if anyone has had this experience and what did you do. He did have a moderate reaction to intuniv.

ADHD "Cured"
I had made a post basically outlining my negative life experiences and how ADHD played a role and I had treated for depression (a symptom of the ADHD) for years and I was also looking for opinions about
Adderall
. I had taken Vyvanse for a few weeks with 0 results, may as well have been placebo.

Week 1
So we finally decided to try
Adderall
XR for my 10 year old son and I just want to know if anyone out there has experience with this. The first day at school was terrible. This week he has been coming home and is just quiet and not responding to anything I ask him.

ADHD meds
So we started
Adderall
XR 2 days ago. My son is 10 years old and since we started he seems agitated and annoyed. He stayed up til 1:30AM when he usually sleeps by 9pm. Today was his first time at school while on meds. He had a terrible day.

New to ADD meds but need to switch
I have done some research and I am considering asking my doctor to switch me to dextroamph / amphetamine ER the generic
Adderall
XR which would cost $60 a month. Both medications have similar profiles and work very similarly albeit can work better for some individuals.

Hello! Day 1
Hello out there - our 7-year old son was diagnosed with ADD back in August and we started meds last Friday,
Adderall

Just Found This Site. Phew!
Psychiatrist said she wouldn't prescribe
Adderall
and shamed my prior docs. Treated me like an addict, I've had one pain pill my whole life and never done drugs ever.

15 yr old ADHD son w/Oppositional behaviors
He's on
adderall
XR 10-15 mg/day, tried Concerta & natural Fish Oil route to no avail. Getting 3 D's in classes. He punched a large hole in my wall & had a cursing rage when we were discussing school 2 nites ago. Said when we talk about grades, it makes him even more unmotivated for school.
