How are you coping with the side-effects? When I tried Adderall for the first time, it was like some one had switched on the stadium lights. However, it killed my sleep and I was a wreck within a week. I had to discontinue it as lack of sleep was causing social issues with my wife and co-workers.

I've heard your kind of experiences from friends too. And that is what kept me from taking it.

Yet, I experienced no high of any sort. I still indulge in timewasting activities while on adderall(I'm on it now:)--but it's significantly less.

I don't have those side effects, so Adderall my just not be a good fit for you. Have you tried something else? What did your doctor say?
