What got worse for some people
In their own words
“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.”
“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.”
“I've been on daily 20mg Adderall XR for a few years now. However, I don't feel like my focus is that great.”
“Afterwards, I was on Adderall XR for 7 years. That worked until I started to crash more and more, developing evening irritability.”
