I'm new here. Turning 42 years old next year. Just want to get a better life for my 2 kids. Have ADHD.
The doctor gave me 10mg of the generic
Adderall
and it's the short-term release one. It's just once a day too. I do not feel anything different. Feel less anxious.

help with communicating with your doctor about adhd
Took a while to get an appointment so now I have about 9
adderall
left. (Only take 5 mg because my previous doc was worried about medication tolerance). I’m not married to the idea of meds, but I was a bit disappointed in the doc’s attitude towards my diagnosis.

The MD prescribed it, not because I complained about
adderall
, but because I described how
adderall
worked for me when asked: it wears off around 1400 and depending on demands of the day I may need a PM dose that I often don't take. When I went to the pharmacy Vyvanse was $15 instead of $5.

Work Impact - comprehension and listening
I’m on
Adderall
but I don’t think it’s helping at all with this and my other symptoms. My mind just cuts off mid conversation and then when it comes back in I have missed so much information.

Yes, I agree, ADHD needs a new name!!!
Then there’s this push that they take some kind of medication like Ritalin and
Adderall
. Seems to me like the pharmaceutical companies are making some money off of some vulnerable kids. And while I’m at it, can we think of a better name for bipolar disorder???

Guanfacine IR vs XR
We started with Ritalin and
Adderall
, both of which gave him extreme rage issues. Our doctor suggested we switch to Guanfacine immediate-release. He is currently on 2mg in the mornings, working our way up slowly over the last 4 months or so.

Partner Support with Medication
Does anyone have a partner that isn’t supportive of using medication (in my case
Adderall
) towards their treatment for ADHD? Or are you a partner that your significant other takes medication and you are against it and why?

Too quick to diagnose?
succumbing to intense anxiety for which I was prescribed anti-depressants by my doctor who thought it was likely I had ADHD but felt the anxiety needed to be treated first, and finally a couple of weeks ago seeing a psychiatrist who diagnosed me the same day with ADHD (Combined type) and prescribed

Different manufacturers’s generic Adderalls work differently to you as well?
My pharmacy said they no longer carry generic
Adderall
from the manufacture that I prefer. I don’t know what to do…

Looking for medication advice for ADHD-inattentive type and anxiety
A nurse practitioner prescribed me
Adderall
recently but after reading about it some, I am afraid to take it. Any advice about this would be helpful.

Experiences with Concerta
I have tried
Adderall
in the past and while I liked the focus it gave me it was too harsh for my stomach and gave me heart palpitations. I started Concerta a little over a week ago. The first couple days it was amazing.

Adderall IR 10mg
I was just diagnosed on Monday and started
Adderall
instant release 10mg yesterday. I'm wondering will I start to feel effects over the next few days/weeks or if I'm not feeling it immediately, it's not going to happen at all at this dose? I definitely feel... something.

Stimulants for RLS?
An idle thought - could stimulants, specifically dopamine reuptake inhibitors (like Ritalin,
Adderall
, Vyvanse) treat the symptoms of RLS? Intuitively I would think yes, given that dopamine agonists are widely used for RLS.

Alcohol, Adderall, and ADD
No one believes me because
Adderall
is a stimulant! Lol! Now that I am taking the
adderall
, the alcohol is more of a depressant and I don't get the energy from it any more and don't enjoy drinking like I used to, which is AWESOME!! Has anyone else experienced this?

Effective ADHD treatment for spouse who doesn't seem invested in change
Even though he sees a therapist and psychiatrist, is taking
Adderall
and Lexapro, the only change I've seen in him is that he can pay attention to what I say well enough to go on a tangent about something related to what I've said (when before he would start in with something unrelated).

Help for a Newbie!
Psych moved me back to
Adderall
- 30 mg IR twice a day. This still wasn’t addressing my main concerns. He added 125 mg Wellbutrin, since the
Adderall
is helping my attention. So far, day 3, I don’t feel a difference.
