I saw that most of the replays on this message board were from parents of kids that take
adderall so I decided I would give some insight into what it is really like to take it. Previous to taking adderal, I was a struggling student who barley got by. Iâd never even dreamed of going to college. In seventh grade I began taking the adderall and it turned my world around. I started understanding the material and before I knew it, I was getting mostly Aâs. High school was a breeze for me. A lot of people looked to me for help in math and science. My senior year I took a college math class (calc 1). I am now a freshman in college and I am doing great. I believe adderal is an excellent drug but there were some drawbacks to it. One is my decreased appetite. I am a 6 foot two inch male that weighs 165 pounds, but when I am taking adderall I can go an entire day without eating a single thing and not even feel hungry. I hate not eating but the adderall makes food very unattractive. The other side effect is irritability. I notice that I âsnapâ a lot easier when I am taking the medication. I donât consider myself dangerous by any means, but I am a lot more irritable. I would like to conclude by saying that I believe adderal opens ones eyes to the world. Itâs like finally opening your eyes and understanding the world.
