Initially the Adderall 20mg helped.but now..a week or so later,Im not "feel;ing" it. Im extremely tired after work..I dont know if thats the "crash" ppl talk about or not.I thought this type of adderall was longer lasting.
I dont want to blame my lack of energy on my medicine..maybe it could be my new ,more physical job..or my depression? I dont know..any insight,friends?
Not on an anti-depressant, my dr thinks if the adhd is treated it may elevate some of my depression.
I guess I should call her and ask her why the hell I'm so beat...and to talk about other options. thanks for replying
Oh Rain! :( ((HUGS))
It could be a combination of all three, have you talked to your doctor? Maybe Adderall isn't for you and you need to try something else? Or maybe you shouldn't take a long lasting med, but one that is short lasting that you can control better. My dexedrine is short acting (lasts about 3-4 hours) and I like that I control it and can better avoid the crash. I actually don't have the crashes anymore, but I did somewhat at the beginning.
Are you on an antidepressant as well?
