Hey everyone, i've recently been prescribed adderall. I told my doctor my symptoms and he said it could possibly be ADD. Because i'm 21 my doctor doesn't see it being necessary to get evaluated by a therapist if I didn't want to, and I agreed. He said we'll try 10mg IR x2 daily to see if it is effective, if not try 20mg in the morning and to make a small log on when I take it. For the first few days I did 10mg x2 a day, but it wasn't working effectively. I mostly had side effects from it, dry mouth, slight headache that came and went, slight jaw tension but mostly nibbling on the inside of my cheek (I know its bad, I chew gum instead now). I started 20mg in the morning and 10mg early evening for a few days. I concentrate a little better but quickly wears off.

Today at roughly 130pm I took my evening 10mg pill, had some bad nausea and laid down at 230 and fell asleep for 30-45 minute. Woke up feeling fine.

I'm 21, 240 pounds, 6'1

Possibly not ADD but more of a hormone imbalance?
