ALRIGHTY so, i’ve been on 20mg of adderall xr now for almost 2 months. and i need some assistance with a few more details.
at first my doc had me on it 2 x’s a day. i would take it first thing when i woke, then i would take it mid-dayish… it would last me through till i had to complete my chores for the day at home. then this last time i went they were concerned with my weight loss so he prescribed it for once a day instead.
well, hubby and i both have noticed a difference in my ability to complete tasks once i get home.
i’ve scheduled an appt to check my blood levels for any vitamin deficiencies and to talk to him about the dosage. should i ask to be bumped up to 25 or 30 mg, or ask to be placed on the twice a day thing?
i have noticed that my appetite has returned to full on EAT mode since i switched to once a day, but i’m not getting that umph factor even when i try taking it at different times of the day. or choosing to eat before i take it. or right after i take it.
i feel as though the meds fade and then i fade and just get lost in the thoughts again.
i’ve been utilizing my time goals and am still completing tasks, but it is beginning to take more effort. i can’t really tell if it’s the med’s dosage amount or number of times i’m taking it now.
does anyone share this experience?
any help would be loverly. thanks
