I have been seeing this guy for about 8 months now and it has just recently started to get more serious. But I have a problem, like most who have posted, I have a tendency to speak without thinking. I have recently started to take adderall, I'm up to 40 mg now, and I notice that I think a lot more before speaking. Generally this is a great thing, but I have been finding that when he says/does something that I don't like, instead of speaking up like I used to pre-adderall, I sit and think about what I'm going to say...but I think I do it for too long. In short, I think I'm beginning to over analyze. I used to be so quick with comebacks, but now I sit and think about what just happened and I do it for so long that I lose the opportunity to bring it up. I am not sure if this makes sense to you guys, but I am wondering if the Adderall is making my mind too slow...

Can any of you guys relate? Any suggestions? I do not want to approach him with a laundry list of all the things that he has done recently that have irritated me. Maybe I am more irritable on the Adderall, I'm not sure...

Yes,
When I first started Adderall I could actually feel the "filters" kick in for the first time in my life. It was great being able to stop an inappropriate thought from coming out, but after a while, I realized that there where a lot of benefits that the filters were eliminating. Mostly intuitiveness and my ability to take in and process info quickly. I did not realize how much a part of me that “gift” that was and how much it added to my intelligence until I muddled around trying to be “normal” for a while.
Just in the past few months I have cut my dosage in half, now I just get a "whiff" of the meds. I have to work harder at some of the more mundane things that the full dosage was so helpful with but I am really enjoying my own company a lot more.

I think I may have read it on a post here. Someone made the statement that for Adders the things that are so simple for most folks seem so impossible for us, (come on how hard can it be, just put you car keys in the same place every day….) but the things that are difficult for most a lot a people come so easy for a lot of us. That quickness that you refer to is a big one. I know many of us can connect dots that most folks can’t even see.

I feel both sides, am I the only one? Let me explain;
I over-analyze everything, but my mind races so quickly from subject to subject that it sucks. I have been looking for a home business for example. I chose one, and then over-analyzed it to death and changed to another one. Then I start thinking about the original one again. Then I tell myself, no, im sticking with this one damnit! I have serious problems being over-analytical, but I cannot focus! Its weird. I am very forgetful, and dont EVER think before I speak. Sometimes I wonder how words even come out of my mouth because I never ever consider what I am saying before I say it. I dont even think at all actually, infact as I am typing this I am not thinking about it. The words are just coming to me. Anyhow, It sucks. Anyone know what I mean?
