| 4 | ADHD | insomnia | I find that as long as I forbear from drinking caffine The medication's highs and lows are not an issue.all that caffine did was augment the adderall to the point of becoming a recreation. it should really be avoided in my opinion. otherwise the medication workes great for the treatment of ADHD, improving all symptoms of the disease | M | 21 | 2 months | 8/1/2006 | 4 | weight loss, increase of attention | loss of appetite (or disinterest)& weight loss. | the side effects of the drug can be completely avoided, naturally. simply taking a high potency multivitamin, consuming plenty of water, regular exercise (like 15 - 30 mins of light movement) and eating wholesome foods can and will diminish the effects > excluding the weight loss and appetite suppression, which is a good thing. i don't actually have full ADD/ADHD but i find it helpful for school (i'm in advanced courses). helps focus and studying. recommend taking 25 mg's a day (your doctor will start you off lower). i've lost a few founds in 3 weeks. | M | 16 | 2 months | 10/19/2008 | 4 | ADD | At a massive overdose (about 80mg for me), my hypoglycemia (Low blood sugar) is immensely intensified, to point you can barely move head without vision blacking out. Head feels like it's floating (High-ish), vision is blurry. Other effects may occur as well, below Normal to Abused amount (20-40mg for me) It gives EXTREME happiness, pity for others becomes realistic+intensified, UNBELIEVABLE energy, Constantly contemplate about life\people\ethics, Ridiculous talkativity (emotional/blabberish), If taken past morning insomnia occurs, boring tasks which take 20 seconds to get off track become 100% satisfying for hours, frequent urinating, very depressing emotional & energy crashes occur, Quick + obvious weight loss, Sleepyness+Appetite is completely gone, hypoglycemia intensified, style of thinking is different + more clear, finger twitch, constant teeth grinding urge all day leaving mouth sore. Sweating while awake/asleep occurs. Temperature perception changes in ways hard to exp | Don't abuse aderall. It can mess up your personality permanently or temporarily, and may cause depression. Nothing's good about abusing.. I can tell it has emotionally effected me. Also, after eating much less or nothing for a while without noticing it, my hands became bonier, I got rheumatoid arthritis, and hypoglycemia. However when I make myself eat, it repairs arthritis and hypoglycemia. Something I've noticed about it is that I stay focused on something for too long. As in, I'll get bored and start an article suggestion for something, and end up spending like 3-5 hours straight on it, remaining completely satisified while doing it, and when I sober up, I realize that a lot of it is stupid banter and strays from the main point way too much. Overall I love the happy effects of it, the 1000x caffeine feeling, and the impossible-to-be-bored feeling. I suggest to never smoke pot while abusing even a little extra aderall. Or maybe any at all. Heres my experiances from a pot+sl | M | 16 | 1 months | 10/26/2008 | 4 | ADD | Got taken off provigil because i had a couple of bad reactions and it is an expensive medication. Adderall helps me out alot. I take 15mg a day and I am extremely productive. My appetite is a little weak but I make up for it in the later part of the day. I also smoke a ton of cigarettes when I am on Adderall. | It's basically speed. | M | 24 | 2 months | 10/27/2008 | 4 | depression | compulsive scratching of my scalp; insomnia; occasionally some severe mental anxiety ( mental as opposed to adrenalized anxiety attacks ) | It makes you feel like an addict. I take it every three hours to prevent | M | 35 | 4 years | 12/13/2004 | 4 | ADD | Sometimes erectile dysfunction | basically works great in preventing a | M | 52 | 4 years | 11/30/2004 | 4 | trouble concentrating | anxiety (when taken too much), dry mouth more talkative, extreme clarity of thought, etc. | The only real negative side effects showed up at first when I was prescribed 30 mg a day, but I operate best with 15 mg once a day (only when I really need it). If I take too much I have shortness of breath, anxiety, etc. but when I take the appropriate dosage for me, everything's perfect and I feel like I don't know how I operated without it before. | M | | 4/22/2007 | 4 | adult add | after about 45 minutes to an hour there is increased heart rate, typically between 100 to 110 BPM, whereas my regular BPM typically looms around 70-85 BPM, Loss in appetite, Heightened sexual awareness, irritability, "tingling sensation" on forehead the first month(not painful sensation, just kinda odd sensation) | so far so good with the adderall. I would actually have to give it a rating of 3.5, I feel the quality of my life has improved, however I also feel scared and unsure about this medication. In part due to all the reactions you hear about this drug BUT then I remind myself this is one of the most widely abused drugs and wrongfully prescribed drugs on the drug market today. anyways here is a little background of me: my whole life i've had people tell me how smart i was and with that my whole life I've wondered why? If someone told me I was smart, I had unlimited potential(and yes I am aware sometimes these ar things people just say to others to encourage/bepolite.) But after hearing these comments about myself I would never be able to determinte why. Or not just why, but how am i so smart? What I have just written in these past sentences is exactly what adderall has helped with THE MOST. When I take this drug(One 20mg Adderall XR, when waking up) my days seem to "happen" | M | 23 | 4 months | 12/5/2006 | 4 | adult ADD | The drug worked for me but took away my sex drive. It was chemicaly castrating me and I will not voluntarly give up my sex life just to consentrate better. | M | 62 | 3 months | 10/22/2005 | 4 | adhd | sleep problems now better | I know take 60 mg daily with good effect. I have noticed thta I tend to obsess or perseverate on tasks. | M | 45 | 4 times | 2/16/2005 | 4 | ADHD/ADD | Dry mouth, Mild insomania, mild constipation and a rash on my forearm - I have been taking 30Mg a day for about a month | It has made an improvement in my life. | M | 39 | 30 days | 2/18/2005 | 4 | ADD | <> Loss of appetite - initially severe, but decreased over months <> Weight fluctuation - barely ate for first 6 months and dropped from 255 lbs. to 175 lbs. However, now my appetite decreases for an hour after taking it, but then I'm very hungry for the next 3 hours until my next dose so I already am back up to 200 lbs. 4 months later. <> Reduced sex drive - used to want it 3-4x per week, now once per week. Also, if I have sex shortly after taking adderall, I have reduced firmness in my erection. Everything is still functional but takes a bit more effort. <> Shorter fuse - more easily angered than usual but not severe | On the plus side, I am able to focus much better and am considerably more task conscious. Makes me a better listener and less distracted IF I TRY TO. That was the biggest lesson - this is not a magic pill that will make you more focused. It will allow you to be more focused if you TRY TO. I still have to make decisions to be more responsible, the adderall just helps to allow me to focus on a given task more than I could before. | M | 26 | 10 months | 5/31/2005 | 4 | ADD | Initially weight loss, low libido, jaw clenching. | I take Adderall XR - 30mg then Adderall 10 - usually broken into 2 5mg halves when I'm having one of "those days" or need to attend a late day meeting. It has been a big help in actually completing tasks. After taking Adderall for a while, I am sad that I didn't take it sooner. Drops in libido can be counteracted by finding the right combo of OTC supplements at the vitamin or supplement store: Ashwagandha, TestoJack100, Yohimbe, Tribulus terrestris, etc. | M | 39 | 8 months | 6/3/2007 | 4 | Adult ADD | Loss of apetite, extremly sleepy all the time | I was recently diagnosed with ADD and started taking Adderall @ 5mg - the first week was perfect - I felt very focused and was able to accomplish tasks that I had put off for ever and I did them with great ease - I couldnt believe it. My course work was easier as well because of increased concentration. The first four or five days it did keep me up late at night but then that went away. The second week I was told to up the dose to 10mg (i thought 5mg was working fine but I did what the doc suggested) and that is when the problems started. I was sleeping fine through the night but I also wanted to continue sleeping through the day! The effects of the Adderall wearing off were so bad that I had to stop. I would fall asleep at meetings, I would want to sleep at work, I would fight drowsiness behind the wheel, everywhere. I tried cutting back down to 5mg, but it didnt change anything. The focus and attention were great for the moments that I wasnt fighting sleep! So I got off. I wa | M | 35 | 3 weeks | 6/8/2007 | 4 | adhd | problems falling asleep | M | 7 | 5 days | 6/11/2007 | 4 | irratiblity, depression | dry mouth, occasional insomnia, reduced appetite, weight loss | I have enjoyed this drug.

Now been on for adderall for three years (now with Wellbutrin XL) and am having episods of memory loss, (I mean no recollection of events type loss), or my wife is playing games with me. For the past year have been times of confusion lasting a week or two, not sure if that is from the drug but that's about all I can think of that could cause it. The most irritating thing is some short term menial task related memory loss, like not remebering if I showered, fortunately I shave when I shower so I often have to touch my face to see if I have or not, not as disgusting as it sounds I manage to check my face every day (LOL). Actually it tends to work in my favor, I am the kinda who runs fingers through his hair after the shower and hit the road, sometimes I don't see the mirror, and yes, the other menial task I most often forget? To shave Having infrequent bouts of rage, (n | Ok, now here's the thing I am on 120mgs a day. As I have searched the web recently I don't see numbers like that thrown around too much, don't think I am proud or bragging, read on. So I really like the drug, but am growing concerned about some of the recent issues and if they are related to Adderall, my wife thinks I should quit, (and I know she's right), says she would rather have the old dreamer starving artist than a maniac (or baby sit a drooling bonehead, I guess). Now here I am crusin' my way through the Information Highway reading horror, I mean serious HORROR stories of people going through literally months of withdrawl, (sleeping 2-3 days at a time, manic depressive episods etc...), these same people are taking 30-60mgs a day and some of then for less than a year. At 120mgs I am as worried about the withdrawl as I am the side effects. By the way, one draw back has been since I started taking anti depressants and Adderall, what used to be a very vivid and creative m | M | 44 | 3 years | 5/5/2006 |
