I am 31 and had ADHD my entire life, but wasn't diagnosed until I was 25.
Was on Adderall for 2 years, then moved to another state. No doctor would write me a prescription even though I had a 20 page report and my doc's word from a reputable clinic in NYC.
Adderall no more for 3 years.
It was hell.
6 weeks ago I started seeing a psych for my sleep issues and depression and he decided i should go back on adderall.
For some weird reason, it has a different effect on me now. I am OCD, Hyperfocus, am extremely anticocial and my ADD seems worse.
Mayebe adjusting though.
But gerenally speaking, I feel alone with this. I sometimes just want to shed out of my skin.
But it's great that I have a recource for info now and share thoughts.

the OCD side effect from adderall I know it all too well... I eventually went to dexedrine to stop the need for a "routine" before I left the house... I found the same thing with adderall made me kind of angry
