Vyvanse vs Adderall XR/IR Experiences
What has people’s experience been with Vyvanse vs Adderall XR? I’m taking 60mg of Vyvanse which is great for the 4-5 hours it’s working but the crash is becoming more difficult and just need a more prolonged focus. I’m leery to even go up to the 70mg. Has anyone had the same experience with Vyvanse

Sleepy From Adderall
Hey Everyone, First post on CHADD. I'm a 42 year old male, first diagnosed with ADHD about 2 years ago. In researching ADHD, working with various mental health professionals, and in reflecting upon my life, it is quite clear that I've had this my entire life, despite only recently being diagnosed. Anyway

What is the ideal dose for maximum medication effectiveness Focalin XR
My 17 yr old son has tried several different medications and currently on Focalin XR. He started with 20mg and increased dose until 35 mg. When he took 35mg for a day he experienced increased heart rate, so it was reduced to 30mg. However, when it was reduced to 30mg, he said it was not great as when

I'm getting closer to okay.
So, first day at new job, and I had all the anxious feelings I knew I would. Woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep. Finally took a Xanax and was able to at least rest a little. But I still got physically ill. Took another Xanax (I can take three). It still took me some time to calm down

I thought I was okay. I'm not.
So, I start my new job tomorrow, and I know being nervous is a "normal" feeling, but I am beyond nervous. I'm already making myself physically ill with worry and anxiety. I know I'll have to take a Xanax just to get to the office and I hate feeling this way. I know my last job was horrible (not the work

Has anyone experienced insomnia while starting lexapro? How did you deal with it?
I have been on Lexapro for about 11 days now for anxiety and depression. I am not sleeping except for a few hours after taking a xanax. The xanax is working less and less as I believe I am developing a tolerance to it. Any advice on how others have tackled this would be appreciated. Maybe Ambien

I am 8 days into taking a starter dose of Lexapro for anxiety? My anxiety has gotten worse. Has anyone else experienced this?
I am 8 days into taking a starter dose (5mg) of Lexapro for anxiety? My anxiety has gotten worse and I am not sleeping now. I am having to use xanax to settle my mind enough to get a little sleep. I am suppose to up my dose to 10mg today but am on the fence about this. I don't want to make things

Depression and Anxiety
I am a 33 year old woman that struggles with severe depression and anxiety. I am on Fluoxetine, Rexulti, and Xanax. I would like to find other people that struggle with this and maybe we could talk and support one another.

Natural ADHD Supplements?
I recently stopped taking Adderall XR 10mg which had worked well but made me more irritable. Are there any good supplements one can take to help with ADHD?

Stimulant/Adderall crash
I have been on Adderall XR for 3 months and things have gone well, but I have noticed a recurring theme. About once a week I will suddenly be mentally exhausted and grumpy even with my medication and the only thing that fixes it is about a 12 hour sleep. Every day prior to this I feel fine and hugely

Can I mix Adderall XR with Yoo-hoo to get child to take it?
I was thinking about opening the capsule into a medicine cup and just adding a few squirts of Yoo-hoo so he will drink it down. Will this be ok?

Directed attention Exhaustion and Adderall XR
My son has recently started Adderall XR and has said he gets tired and exhausted after focusing on tasks and assignments that aren't very interesting. Is this fairly common and what can be done to minimize this exhaustion? Thanks!

Mondays always require two Xanax.
I wake up in such a state of panic every Monday. It really sucks. Actually, the first thing that came to my mind Sunday morning is "shit, I have to work tomorrow." After arriving to work, I was totally fine (thanks to that second Xanax). I have therapy tomorrow, so that's always good. I revised my resume

This morning I had the worst panic attack ever
I just woke up with morning with my heart racing already. I took a Xanax and it didn't help. I had to take another one a couple hours later. I got to work, and it was so bad I had to go cry in the bathroom. Probably lasted a total of five hours. That's never happened before. Nothing triggered it, except

Return to "normal" is failing, in glorious fashion
So, a couple days ago, I posted about how well things were going back at work. Well, the shit hit the fan on Wednesday. I was told something I did was pretty much crap and they expect more from me. Fine, okay, I was upset and to be honest, I came home and got drunk (I know, not good). Well, yesterday
