Positive experiences
“the stuff works for me real well with My prescribed Adderall XR.”
“it absolutely makes me more productive but i feel less like myself so if i can achieve that productivity in other ways i'd like to.”
“20mg Adderall XR. It seems to be working remarkably well for both. The doctor didn't want to start me on any BP meds because of my age and suggested I attempt to lose weight.”
“simply switching from Adderall IR to XR changed my whole outlook on life”
“I take Adderall in the mornings. It helps tremendously and improves my day”
“i currently take adderall xr for adhd-pi...Adderall works well for me, not looking to switch meds mid semester”
Negative and mixed experiences
“After rehab I got a prescription for 30 milligrams of Adderall XR and I couldn't feel it at all.”
“The difference has been night and day. It's far superior to any generic IR version I tried, and I've been much more productive over the past month.”
“I love feeling focused and calm throughout my day, however the side-effects are too much.”
“I had startlingly great results for several years with Adderall XR 20mg with no negatives whatsoever. ... Tolerance gradually built up...”
“It served me very well in the beginning, but over the past year or so I've noticed some serious changes in my overall mental health when it comes to focus, mood, and anxiety.”
“I have stopped it because it felt like I was on the clock the majority of the time and although it helped me tremendously, it felt like a double-edged sword.”
