Adderall XR (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): I took Adderall for about 7-8 months. It was the first medication that I have taken for ADHD as in the past I have suffered through the symptoms. Overall I would say that it helped my focus and drowsiness. Other than that I didn't notice a huge change in other areas, though the ability to stay awake and keep focused helped at work. I still managed to forget important events. It works well for those of us who have the in-attentive type ADHD.

Adderall XR (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): I am an adult, 54 years old, who was diagnosed with Adult ADD two years ago. Adderall XR has made a huge difference in my quality of life. I now have the ability to organize my day and focus on what I need to get done. I fell very calm and can filter out all unecessary distractions. I don't procrastinate like I use to whic has eliminated the unecessary anxioty in my life. I work closely with my doctor to make sure that I am on the right dosage. i wish I had known about this 45 years ago!

Adderall XR (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): My son was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 2. He is now 11. We have tried changing his diet, herbal remedies, Vyvanse, Strattera, and several others. The thing that has worked without causing headaches is the Adderall RX. He does have a loss of appetite, but his behavior and ability to concentrate are definitely worth it.

Adderall XR (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): Diagnosed 3yrs ago, participated in Strattera study, did not help at all. Finally started Adderall 20mg XR two days ago. Main difference is the absence of fatigue and quieted mind. I can actually sit and not have to argue with myself, overwhelming feelings gone for the most part. Insomnia straight away first night, hardly any sleep again last (2nd) night, underlying headache now. Definite loss of appetite, appreciate the lost lbs but still have to eat!

Adderall XR (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): As Heidle said above, mood swings. However, my doctor gave me Celexa (20mg) to combat this and that has worked miracles. Supplementing Adderall XR with a (good) multi-vitamin, 3x daily value of Omega-3 (fish oils) and Magnesium Citrate (no other 'variants', ONLY citrate, the others work AGAINST Adderall (XR) seems to be working extremely well for me.
