I guess I’ll answer my own question for those reading the thread…I went to the doctor’s today and told him the effect of concerta seemed to be wearing off with time so we switched to Adderall XR….now if there is one thing I learned by reading the different posts on this website is that no med feels the same for everyone…
So anyways, here’s my experience so far 
:
Whearas Concerta and Ritalin seem to bring the “cup of coffee” to the Nth power feeling, the adderall XR has a bit of that feeling but mostly it makes everything around me slow down. Its hard to describe, i’ve been a bit anxious recently for different reasons which is probably part of the reason why i feel my concerta is not working as well and I have to say since taking my 10MG Adderall XR this morning and 10MG at 4:00, i have had a day which has been completely anxiety free. I have the impression, that a war could be going on around me and I wouldn’t be so panicked…I say this in a good way as I often feel that with my adhd, things around tend to go a bit quicker than they should.
I’ve also noticed that the adderall XR doesn’t seem to last as long as the concerta….the concerta was a good 10 hrs and i would say that the adderall xr is more 7-8 hrs.
Anyways … Im quite happy so far, no negative side effects so we’ll see…time will tell if this is the right medication…. ill keep you guys posted!
Lately I’ve been a bit anxious for different reasons
