I really hope I don't. lol. On adderall I am pretty chatty but I don't think I talk TOO much.(At least I hope I don't :confused:)
My sister was just given concerta and I started to laugh when I realized how fast she would talk and how she'd talk about ANYTHING. I knew the feeling all too well and I could tell when her pill was kicking in. After a while it got annoying with all the non stop fast rambling. Then I was thinking to myself...do I come off that annoying to people?! When I'm on it, I don't realize that I could be talking too much...I just feel like talking.

I now have to make an effort not to talk too much. I don't want to be annoying to people or have strangers think I'm on speed or something. I really want to know from an outsiders point of view if people on adderall talk too much to the point of suspicion. I'm not on too high of a dose but god I hope I don't come off as annoying as my sister does :eek: lmao

Um I feel super chatty and ofen wonder the same thing! My friends will comment on it sometimes, and it's usually right after my pill kicks in.

Same here. Sometimes I can recognize it, but I still can't stop. It usually tones down within the first couple of hours.

Yeah I noticed it too--- and the first time I felt the need to not act on it, was during a job interview last week!!

*whew* thought I almost blew that one.


I also wonder if it would come off annoying!

I think as far as annoying goes, it probably depends on who you're talking to ;)

What's really bad is when I start to annoy myself!

I think most people will understand and attribute it to your personality. The job I am in right now hired me partially because our 30-minute interview turned into 3 hours. They loved how "open and spirited" I was and felt that I was a great addition to liven up the team :) People will appreciate you for who you are, and if they love you, they'll love you even for your faults (and walk away when you get annoying - LOL!)
