Adderrall XR ;Anxiety after it wears off | ADHD Information
I am just concerned because as we all know, Adderall alone is a highly addictive substance, so I don't want to be addicted to XANAX on top of that! i just want the xanax to pretty much take that "edge" off of my anxiety attacks, not to fall asleep. i talked to my doc about this today, and he kept me on the xanax, but for night time now he has me on that new stuff Lunesta.... Anyone know anything about this one? Its going to be my first night.....kinda weary about it!I have both ADHD as well as panic disorder. I am on Adderrall XR 20mg in the morning and 10 more at noon. I don't suffere anxiety or panic attacks ALL DAY, but once the adderrall wears off, they come full force. My doctor also has me on 1mg of xanax to use "twice a day as needed for panic attacks". now, i cant even get to sleep unless I take at least a half of one if I had my adderall at all that day..... IM GOIN NUTS! WHAT THE HECK CAN I DO?!?!?
Hi Riehere, I had a simular problem when my adderall wore off. They weren't panic attacks, but I felt so uncomfortable and disconnected with what was going around me. At times I wished I could jump out of my skin. I use to take xanax, but now I'm on klonopin 3 times a day/ adderall 3 times a day.
My doc said I could take the adderall and klonopin together. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I still have the effects of the adderall, but the klonopin makes it easier to "wind down" and I now feel very little discomfort. As for the sleep problem, I've always had insomnia. Doc prescribed Ambian 10mg before bed and a half if I wake up. To me Ambian has been a "wonder drug". Ask your doc if you can take both together. And you may want to check into the Ambian. Good luck!
I had the same problem last night.Just started Adderall 1 week ago, but yesterday was first time to take 2x. I am not on extended release.I felt like I was extremely anxious and restless. I could not sit still.you sound like you are doing what you should be. why are you going nuts? bc u have to take the xanax to fall asleep?
