ADHD meds stop working?
My daughter has been on
Adderall
20mg xr for few months and they have worked great. All of a sudden she has been extra aggitated lately. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this? It's been since she had the flu and the meds seem to be too much.

ADD/Anxiety/Depression
I've been on
Adderall
for a couple of years with no anti-depressants. I recently had a my depression come back (which also comes with anxiety for me), and so my doctor prescribed me Effexor XR and when I felt like that wasnt working she added Wellbutrin 150 mg.

After 3 yrs I was diagnosed ADHD and placed on
Adderall
10 mg 2 a day and it made a huge difference. All of a sudden the computer clicked for me and my overwhelming emotions were no longer keeping me from focussing on my job but it doesn't take it all away. I still cry alot and I'm almost 40.

I'm a Newbie...A little about my journey..& A request for advice!
I continued but a different doctor switched me to
Adderall
XR. I have been taking
Adderall
for over 20+ years. My issue now is I feel it’s not working as well as it used to. I’m not sure if it has to do with my age or some other medical issues. One thing I’m dealing with is…always being tired.

Medication Woes
I take
Adderall
XR and it seems to be giving me issues. I was taking Ritalin for ADHD and Nuvigil for falling asleep at inappropriate times. I was getting Ritalin rage and Nuvigil worked too well in the fact it would make it hard at night to get myself into bed.

Adderall Tolerance and Lexapro Issues
I'm currently taking
adderall
30mg XR and 30mg IR and Lexapro 10mg, but experiencing issues with both. I've built up tolerance to
Adderall
to the extent that it is essentially no longer helpful and the Lexapro has completely blunted my emotions as well as my sex drive.

Mydayis effective for Adderall tolerant individuals?
I’ve tried
Adderall
XR which was like taking a placebo, it did absolutely nothing for my ADHD and I’ve tried Vyvanse, which was better than nothing but still so far
Adderall
IR is still helps more than the others.

Rexulti, Electroconvulsive Therapy, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?
I'm currently on 20 mg Lexapro, 20 mg
Adderall
(prescribed off-label for depression and lethargy), and 4 mg Klonopin. I don't tend to get my hopes up with new medications, because at best I only notice minuscule improvements.

Cll and fatigue
My family doctor prescribed
Adderall
to help with the fatigue. Has anyone else been prescribed
Adderall
and found it helpful or is anyone else aware of a better solution? I've also been advised to begin a regular exercise routine.

Advice needed
Hi all, I am an almost 35 year old female and my PCP has been treating me for ADD for the past 10+ years with 30 mg of XR
Adderall
/day. I did not undergo any testing other than detailed conversations with PCP. I have an excellent job, two healthy, young (1 and almost 3) children, own a home, etc.

MARIO
My son (6 years old) has been on
Adderall
since Tuesday 12/26/17. He has become hyperfocused on Mario. It probably didnt help that he got a switch for christmas and played the Mario game. Yesterday he talked non stop about Mario and even referred to himself as Mario all day long.

ADD & AN AGGRESSIVE HUSBAND WHO BLAMES ME & THREATENS ALL THE TIME!
We have done ADD coaching, marriage counseling, read books, restricted food (to only have him have small amounts that can cause a total relapse), mindfulness, anger management classes and he is on
Adderall
XR. What doctor in MN can help identify and care for the whole thing?

9 year old son is explosive
We see a neuropsychologist and he is taking
Adderall
, Abilify, Zoloft and Clonidine. He manages to stay fairly calm during school but he often sits and does not do his work. He is very smart, but impulsive, aggressive and ODD as well as OCD.
