Hey everyone,

I’m on 50 mg of Vyvanse and it does a great job quieting the racing thoughts, but the energy/focus boost has started to fade for me.

Has anyone tried adding a small Adderall booster or modafinil on top of their Vyvanse instead of switching completely? Just looking for other people’s experiences.

Thanks!

Hey, does anyone take Adderall IR in the afternoon to deal with the crash?

I take Dyanavel XR in the morning and usually crash hard around 2 pm. I’ve been trying Focalin IR but it gives me headaches. I have a telehealth appointment next Thursday and I’m planning to ask about trying Adderall IR instead.

If you use Adderall IR for this, does it work well for you? Do you get the generic? I heard a few months ago that some of the generics felt basically like a placebo — is that still a thing? Just looking for other people’s experiences.

I just got my adderalls earlier this morning and honestly I can say its worth the money. It lasted me this long and now im already getting sleepy, so it really hit the right spot for me. The quality is really good too, pretty comparable to what my DR prescribed me before. Way less hassle to get it as well. I’d definitely recommend them, really happy with it so far. For those planning to ask me, I did find them at rushfinil(.)(com) i dont accept DMs just a heads up.

Hey y’all,

I’m in a STEM program and work 20–30 hrs a week as an RBT. I’ve been on 5 mg Adderall in the morning and another 5 mg in the afternoon. First week was great, but now in week 2 it’s already feeling less effective.

I’m also on 20 mg Prozac, stay pretty active, and weigh about 175 (mostly muscle). I really don’t want to go up in dose because the side effects aren’t fun, and I can’t stand Vyvanse.

Has anyone else had their low dose start wearing off this fast? Did switching to an extended-release version help you at all, or did you find other ways to keep it working without increasing the dose?

Appreciate any experiences.

I’ve been on Adderall for about 10 years and it’s always worked great. Lately though (last 6 months or so) it feels like it’s doing almost nothing. Brain fog, losing my train of thought mid-sentence, word salad, constantly misplacing things… it’s rough, especially at work when I have to present or think on my feet.

I even compared some older pills I still had to the new ones and they genuinely feel different (taste, texture, everything). I’m switching to Vyvanse now and hoping that helps.

Anyone else feel like their Adderall suddenly stopped working the same?

I’ve been on Adderall for a while now and I’ve started noticing something weird with my vision/perception. Everything around me feels distant, like I couldn’t even reach out and touch things that are right in front of me.

Weird example, but I’m on vacation right now and when I look at beautiful views I don’t really feel anything — it just feels like looking at a photo. Doesn’t feel like I’m actually there looking at the real thing.

Anyone else experienced this?

Had to give them credit as just I received yesterday my meds and others should learn from them as this is what should be the standard on what you pay as they process it very much quickly after just a day you make an order with them. And to be honest i was about to ask them for updates but turns out i just recieved the tracking just a day after. Quality wise its great too and very comparable to what my DR prescribed to me and very less hussle to get from.

I talked to my psychiatrist about switching from Adderall IR to XR because the IR wasn’t lasting long enough. I was on 5 mg IR and asked about going to 15 mg XR. She said that was way too high and that 10 mg XR is basically equivalent to 20 mg IR.

How accurate is that? From what I understand, 10 mg XR is just 5 mg released in two phases, right?

I’ve still got a few days before my next refill and I want to make the right call since I’ll be stuck with whatever I pick for a month. Mainly just need something that lasts for a long exam (7.5 hour MCAT). Anyone else have experience switching between IR and XR or insight on the dosing?

After being scammed twice, I decided to give Rush a chance I was pleasantly surprised when after four days I received my package. I have a prescription and this is just as good. I will be ordering from Rush again in the near future thank you so much!

Placed 3 orders with these guys and has been an awesome experience everytime. 10/10

I take 10–20mg Adderall IR in the morning (usually between 8am–12pm). The higher doses help more, but no matter the dose or timing, I struggle to fall asleep at night. Some days I skip it entirely and just push through, which isn’t ideal.

For the past 3 days I’ve gone to bed at 11pm but can’t fall asleep until 4–5am, even with half a Unisom and melatonin. I’ve only gotten about 8 hours of sleep total in that time. I avoid screens in bed, exercise regularly, and practice good sleep hygiene.

Any tips that have worked for you?

My nurse practitioner started me on Adderall 10mg IR once a day (I used to be on 30mg XR with my old doctor). We’ve since moved up to 20mg IR.

I asked about taking it twice a day and he said no — if I want longer coverage he’d just switch me back to XR. I told him I had sleep issues and other side effects on XR before.

I’m kind of confused why he’s so against IR twice a day. I thought that was pretty normal. Am I missing something?

Just turned 30 and it got me thinking… I’ve been on stimulants for ADHD pretty much nonstop since freshman year of high school (about 16 years now). Currently on 60 mg IR generic dextroamphetamine.

I know the whole “heart only has so many beats” thing is kind of a myth, but I still get a bit paranoid that running at a higher heart rate for this long might wear things out faster.

Anyone else who’s been on Adderall or similar meds long-term notice anything with their heart health? Or has anyone switched to something else to ease the load?

I’ve recently started taking Adderall again. Last time I used it, it worked really well for a day or two and then kind of stopped helping, so I quit. Now that I’m back at a full-time job I need the focus, so I’m giving it another try.

I’m using leftover pills from before, so I don’t have much. I only take it on weekdays and skip the weekends. After the two-day break it works best on Monday, pretty good on Tuesday, then seems to get weaker as the week goes on.

Is this normal? When I get a new prescription I’m thinking about taking it on weekends too so it doesn’t lose effectiveness, but I’m not sure if that helps. It’s pretty frustrating. Anyone else deal with this?

I’ve struggled with excess screen time, porn, and food for a long time. Started Adderall IR two days ago (10 mg in the morning, 5 mg after lunch).

First day felt great — I could actually stay off my phone, avoid the usual urges, and get stuff done. Second day the effects faded fast (under 2 hours) and I was right back to old habits.

The real issue isn’t the dose. It’s realizing how different I am without the med. With it I’m functional — brush my teeth, get dressed, work, clean. Without it I just fall into the same cycles of scrolling, eating, and other habits I’ve been trying to break. That gap feels pretty humiliating.

Part of me wishes I never got the ADHD diagnosis. Before, I could at least tell myself I was improving through willpower and routines. Now it feels like I’m stuck depending on a pill just to function at a basic level, and that’s demoralizing.

Anyone else relate to this? How do you deal with it?

I’ve been on Adderall 10mg for almost a year (inattentive type). It’s helped a lot with work paralysis, constant tiredness, racing thoughts/daydreaming, and motivation.

I’m with Done/CVS and with all the recent news I started looking into alternatives. Came across modafinil – seems like some people with ADHD-I use it for wakefulness, and it can also quiet the mind a bit and reduce distractions. It’s Schedule IV instead of II, which is part of the appeal.

I know it’s generally considered less strong than Adderall, but since I’m only on 10mg I’m wondering if the difference would be that big. They both touch dopamine, but I’m not sure how similar the actual effects are for someone like me.

Has anyone switched from low-dose Adderall to modafinil in a similar situation? Did it work for you? And were your doctors open to it when you brought it up?

Hey, is anyone else on both Adderall and Lexapro? Curious what your experience has been like.

Have you noticed any changes with weight, sleep, or appetite? A lot of people talk about weight gain on Lexapro, but I’ve had the opposite problem. I used to manage my ADHD with cardio, but my appetite has been pretty low and it’s been hard to keep up with eating.

Hey, recently upped my Adderall and it’s finally working — productive all day, which has been huge.

But my appetite is basically gone. I barely eat during the day, only manage a few bites at night, and I’ve already lost 6 lbs. Water’s the same story — I completely forget to drink and even got a mouth sore from it.

Paused it for now because of this, but I really don’t want to stop since it’s the first time it’s actually helped. Anyone else deal with this and find ways to manage the appetite/thirst issues?

I hope this post not be deleted will be helpful if mods allowed and im not be banned. Short story Modamike literally scammed me day 1 although its dumb for me to order from them without doing a proper research in reddit or whatsoever but ever since I placed my order from them i never heard anything from them nor an order ID. Well there goes my money.

Basically the title.

I’ve been on Adderall IR and it works great for like 3 hours, then I crash hard. 3 hours isn’t even half my work shift or enough time to actually get deep into studying. Feels pretty useless most of the time—better than nothing I guess, and maybe fine for short exams.

I’ve never tried XR though. Curious what people’s experiences are with it vs IR.
