Does anyone take Adderall for A.D.D?

So i have a question if you do take it...When your off of it for a while and then get back on, do you notice you start over thinking situations?

Do you feel more sad?

Because i was off of it for 3 weeks and i was the happiest person.Then i got on it 2 weeks ago and ive just felt like crap.
Answer:
See your physician. Could be the wrong medication. I used to take it years ago. Helped then I was able to wean myself off. I found a great crainio-sacral therapist. It helped me off my anti-depressants and the adderall. Look it up if you care to, She studied with the Upledger Foundation. It unwinds the body and allows it to heal itself. We are not drug deficient, but sometimes you need a little extra help with meds...
No. I used to take Concerta and if I forgot a pill I would have an awful headache. I stopped taking any medication for ADD 5 years ago and nothing changed.
drugs are bad, mkay
No i take adderal and i don't feel that way. That probably means that its not the right prescription for you.
I've been on Adderall. It's a high stimulant like Ritilan. It's supposed to work with ADD by helping you to focus. HOWEVER, if you have any mood disorders like depression it can have a bad effect. You may still get the desired effects of being able to concentrate, but you may get up and downs too.
The effect of the amphetamine can throw you into a feel good mood, and then when you crash you fall just as hard the other way. It can happen everyday, more than one time a day. You can become a moody, highly opinionated person without knowing it. Talk to your doc, maybe the dose or drug is wrong. Good Luck.
It hasn't influenced my moods
Ussing substances like Adderal, (methyl phenidate) for ADHD in adults, is not childrens game...
There must be a legally authorized and accountable person that prescribes it, and or changes it when necessary, which is a licensed therapist...
However, if you have had such discomfort re continuing adderal, you should inform your doctor, as to reconsider another medication appropiated for You....
One thing you do not mention in your question is.why did you discontinue and recontinue Adderal?
There must be a MEDICAL reason for doing that.
There should be no reason to feel the way you did, if the dose is properly adjusted to your problem...
This could be a side effect that should be reported to the FDA by your doctor. and no one else...
A NEPHEW OF MINE WAS ON VARIOUS ADD MEDS. WHEN HE CAME FOR AN EXTENDED VISIT I TOLD HIS MOM THAT HE WAS CLINICALLY DEPRESSED. SHE DID NOT THINK SO BUT AS SOON AS HE WAS OLD ENOUGH HE TOOK HIMSELF OFF ALL AND HAS SEEMED OKAY
