Taking Adderall
Do we need to take the medication everyday at the same time? On the weekends, I would like to sleep in. Can I take it when I wake up? Thank you!

Newly diagnosed, best help?
Hi, I'm 45 and have just been diagnosed with ADHD. It all started because I really want to change my job/career again, had no idea what I wanted to do, and this time instead of making an impulsive change I decided to examine the reasons for my behavior. I just started taking Adderall and I can sense

Scared
My regular doctor retired so I had to find a new psychiatrist. I ran out of my adderall, in the mean time, and when I went to my appt, they drug tested me. It had been 4 days since I took my last pill. What if they cancel my medication because of no adderall in my system? Can they do that? I have never

Citalopram and Adderall
I take 10mg Citalopram in the morning. I am going to start Adderall tomorrow. Is is safe to take both at the same time?

ADHD and my 5 year old
However, we started out on
Adderall
10XR mg once a day then added 5mg NON
XR
at lunch time . It seem to be working however, he would NOT eat. So the provider switched him to Vyvanse 30mg once a day, the first 4 days at school he was great (per the teacher).

Newly Diagnosed with Adult ADD
I’ve started taking
adderall
xr
and haven’t really seen a change. I still have no motivation and have a hard time focusing and getting off the couch. I would love to hear what other people have tried to help with the feeling like a slug. Thanks 😊

Why is Adderall working inconsistently? Sometimes works great, sometimes does nothing, sometimes makes symptoms worse
Hello, I have been recently diagnosed with combined type ADHD and have been taking Adderall for about two months. I had a diagnosis from a psychiatrist but I also did the full five hour neuropsychological testing and it came back with very high scores for ADHD. Including a significantly lower score

On to drug #2
We’ve consistently upped Adderall for our grade 1 son with quite severe symptoms of adhd up to 25mg and as we went up so did his touchiness and temper/extreme anger. We weren’t seeing the attentiveness and focus at school and he become zombie-like so we quickly decided to switch from Adderall last week

Weight gain on adderall
I have been on adderall 20mg since July 2019 when I was diagnosed at age 47. It has been great for my focus and decreased my anxiety but I have put on 40lbs! I am always hungry on adderall and have a history of compulsive eating. Any advise? Should I look at changing medications? This has been a miracle
