But tolerance set in too quickly :( | F | 21 | 4 months | 4/27/2007 | 5 | A friend let me try it | Unable to sleep if too close to bedtime. | I was doing some homework and my friend let me try one to motivate myself. Wow, this stuff is great. I am usually pretty fatiqued and unmotivated. This gave me a kick and I was so into it.I took it one more time and it really makes me a different person, more sociable, intimate, etc. I am unsure how to get my doctor to prescribe it for me though. I think it would help every once in awhlie though, I wouldn't want to take it everyday. Just when I need to be focused. | F | 24 | 2 days | 4/16/2005 | 5 | to get my life in order | ocd, addiction, moody, bad taste, dry mouth, small appetite, insomnia | adderall is the best thing man has created. i dont mind the side effects in comparison to the benefits of the drug. it helps me be more motivated and focused. i multitask now and am more creative. i write poetry and am constantly thinking of new ways to improve my life through organization though sometimes obsessive. i have used it recreationally for a long period of time and had a good time until my prescription ran out. now i take it as prescribed and suceed one day at a time. there is a substantial change in the way i think when on this med. it is definatly a more rational way to think and through all the bullshit i deal with in my life(id rather not get into it)i somehow continue to strive to increase my quality of life and always try to optimize the situation. adderall is a miracle and i would give it to everyone if i could. i honestly think everyone can benefit from the experiences on adderall. ive done a lot of researching and a lot of experimenting with high doses for days till the point of confusion, psycosis, paranoia, and hallucinations of psychedelic nature. and still i say this drug has wonderful theraputic properties. try them today ask your doctor about a trial. its your life and you can take control but watch addiction it will be there waiting. 40 mgs per day reguardless of when i take them gets me through any day. | F | 21 | 7 years | 5/30/2005 | 5 | not concentrating | insomnia, appetite loss, jittery feelings, sore jaw from clenching | really helped me concentrate and absord information, but i was never hungry, and couldn't sleep | F | 18 | 1 months | 1/25/2005 | 5 | adult add, not able to filter | when wearing off hunger, then fatique. usually after four hours. I dose at 8 am and then again at noon. this seems to work well for me. | F | 47 | 3 months | 1/30/2005 | 5 | ADD | Loss of appetite, weight loss (which I did not mind at all), jittery, and a bad taste in my mouth. | Happy with the results, everything has gotten better. My grades are ALOT better and I feel that I have more of a social life. I have tried Concerta, Ritalin and Straterra and Adderall is the only one that has worked for me. | F | 18 | 4 months | 2/6/2005 | 5 | ADHD, Depression, Weightloss | Dry mouth, insomnia, irritability, jitters | Since I've started taking Adderall, I've been doing much better in classes, but I'm starting to find myself confused about the social life aspect. My best friend and I have been kind of distant for the past 4 months, and I used to be heartbroken, but now, I'm not caring as much. Also, I find myself caring less and less about having friends/hanging out/etc in general. I focus on my grades more. Anyone else experiencing this? I'm really confused. Please e-mail me!!!! | F | 16 | 2 months | 2/9/2005 | 5 | Low motivation,excessive sleepiness | Rapid weight loss, but I needed to lose it anyway... :) | Best. Medication. Ever. ^_^ | F | 19 | 6 months | 10/14/2001 | 5 | Attention Defiect Disorder | headache | F | 42 | 3 months | 3/24/2002 | 5 | low motivation | dry mouth, sour taste in mouth, jitters, complete loss of appetite, insomnia | kicks ass | F | 19 | 2 months | 4/2/2002 | 5 | ADD | Weight loss | It's an amazing drug. i went from failing the 6th grade 4th semester when i first started on it to getting a's in all my classes the last semester. There's a huge difference between when I do and don't use it. I'm more motivated to do things when I've taken it (even things like cleaning my room I don't need to be told to do). ADD drugs are fickle though so what works for one person may not for another. Doesn't mean you should give up though if this one fails there are others out there. The dose did have to be increased as i got older because naturally i grew so the same dose had a lesser effect on my 18 year old body as it had on my 12 year old one. :D | F | 19 | 7 years | 9/29/2006 | 5 | To lose weight. | F | 23 | | 1/5/2004 | 5 | adult ADD | dry mouth, loss of appetite | It really helps me out during the day, but tolerance sucks.. | F | 20 | 6 days | 7/7/2004 | 5 | Desperation | Emptiness, Depression, Hopelessness, pounding heart, agoraphobia, stuttering, shakiness, change in personality, anxiety, paranoia, destruction of relationships, sweating, feeling like I am going to die, skin sores, loss of libido, painful crippling out of control addiction | It's so good it hurts. I could just take it and never sleep again. I have dreams that I'm swimming in it. I've stolen it from friends and relatives, causing major destruction. When they catch you it is humiliating, but you go back for more and more. It doesn't even do anything anymore, it's just that I have worn out my body so much that I physically and mentally cannot function without it. I can take rediculously high dosages and still feel less motivated and energetic than the average person. I cry all the time. Please don't do this to yourself. It is so amazing at first and then it just aches. I was a real girl, and now I feel like any coke or meth addict does- exhausted. You lose interest in beautiful things. Love doesn't matter. Just Adderall. I take it and then think real hard about nothing. I always feel like there are things crawling on me. When I can't get it I binge on sugar and sleep for days. Any weight you lose at the beginning comes back for you at the addicion phase. I do | F | 21 | 2 years | 4/20/2006 | 5 | Adult ADHD | Dry mouth, "crashing" at the end of the day, loss of appetite, ability to lose track of time when working on something. | Started this medication after being diagnosed with adult ADHD at age 27. At first, I felt a little wired from the medication, but after a few days my body adjusted. The work I used to despise and put off (both professionally and at home) is now a lot easier to tackle. I have patience and an attention span much greater than before and can deal with boring tasks. I blurt things out without thinking much less than I used to. I've also lost about 15 pounds because I'm not so fixated on food when I'm bored, and my skin has cleared up, probably because I no longer touch or pick at my face like I used to when I had a zit here or there. People have actually commented on my appearance and how I look different and better, which is something I've always had issues with. I feel more confident with this medication, it gives me the boost I really wanted, and makes me focus on things at work that I generally hated before. The only issue I really have is that I seem to "crash" at the | F | 27 | 6 weeks | 3/19/2007 | 5 | ADHD | Dry mouth - Increased body temperature - Anorexia | I have been taking adderall for about 6 months, and it is literally the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I take it every day as recommended at the same time, and i only take the pre. dosage. I dont feel that i have to take it everyday, but my grades have increased dramatically, and the only depression that i have experienced is the depression facing the countless years i struggled with school work prior to Adderall. To bad im just now making the deans list, and i hate to think of how much better i would have done. Any drug has the ability to become addicting if you make it that way, and i hope that all of those who have addictive behaviors stray from adderall, and drugs all together. Dont ruin it for those of us who benifit from it. | F | 23 | 6 months | 6/14/2006 | 5 | ADHD | tachycardia, initial drowsiness 1 1/2 hours after taking, dry mouth, | I take Adderall XR 30mg once a day along with 15mg IR in the evenings. It helps with my adhd however, I've begun taking magnesium (500 mg daily), calcium, and tyrosine to counter tolerance to the drug. I build a tolerance very quickly and have had to increase my dosage considerably. Helps me to focus and remain awake to be able to accomplish many tasks. Sometimes it keeps me awake but most of the time I sleep very well. I think the most important thing is not to build a tolerance. Never eat a high fat meal and always take vitamin supplements to help tolerance levels. Also I take take drug holidays, sometimes a week at a time if I don't need the adderall. Check with your doc about other meds you take, as well. Adderall XR works better than IR. The IR makes me irritable and edgy. XR is smoother and lasts longer. | F | 44 | 3 months | 6/15/2006 | 5 | ADD | Dry mouth, increased desire for nicotine, increased sex drive, sweating, diarrhea once initial effects take place, hot flashes, freezing cold hands and feet, loss of appetite (lost 15 lbs.), get extremely tired after 4-5 hours, but exhaustion only lasts about 30 minutes and then I feel fine. | Adderall is the best thing man ever invented. I only wish I would've started taking it in high school. I have an extremely obsessive personality and I excelled in things that I enjoyed and were extremely important before taking adderall. Today, I excel at everything I do whether I normally would consider it boring or mundane. I painted our entire house (@1600 sq. feet) in one week and had never even painted before. I would paint for 10-12 hrs. a day all by myself. I redecorated and rearranged the house and it now looks awesome and I love being at home. I am an amazing worker now and I get excited about going to work. I look forward to doing things that used to be a chore such as; cleaning the house, washing my car, laundry, dishes, and organizing everything. I am more prepared for life and can handle anything that comes my way. I find that adderall enhances my creativity b/c I write down every single new idea I have and actually follow through with it. I am constantly searchi | F | 28 | 2.5 years | 10/9/2007 | 5 | extreme fatigue | loss of appetite (beyond that from prozac, which is saying something), weight loss (noticeably within a week), difficulty sleeping (which was good considering I was so tired people thought I had mono), stomach ache (if I eat past about 4pm), increased energy/contentment, diarrhea | My psychiatrist prescribed Adderall because she believed I was being sedated by the Prozac I was taking along with Wellbutrin XL (10/450 respectively, for depression); she reduced my Wellbutrin, increased Prozac, added Adderall (300/15/5) and now I feel pretty good. Keep in mind that I have a long and significant history of anorexia nervosa - so I flat out refuse any antidepressants that might cause weight gain. If you're wondering why anyone would prescribe this med for someone with an eating disorder (whose BMI was 18 from the get-go), honestly, the fatigue was 10 times more debilitating than the weight loss (and I'm not counting calories, surprisingly, just forgetting to eat). I would say this drug has worked very well so far; I do NOT have ADD in any way, shape or form and it still helped me focus. But if you have no valid reason to take it, DON'T. Beyond a certain point, I've found I somewhat miss sleeping and eating... being addicted to or dependent on this stuff would kill | F | 15 | 2 months | 3/22/2007 |
