		<description>After multiple weeks or months of taking it, the &quot;buzz&quot; of work work work isn&#039;t ad strong and you can again see things and think them through and plan thoroughly, as well as feel an urge to reach your fullest potential. Adderall is actually a highly abused drug because of the euphoria. Vyvanse, by the same company, has less of a &quot;narrowed buzz&quot; and more of an enhanced businessman effect. On vyvanse I&#039;m able to choose which work is the most important and what I can do to have the best future possible. On vyvanse, I planned my highschool classes into about 6 semesters into the future and even discovered an exceptional way for me to graduate and head off to NC State to become a computer engineer at 16 years old. 

On vyvanse, I&#039;ve learned programming languages that take years to learn in weeks to the point that I was actually able to solve problems for college level programmers. (C being the language)

I&#039;m 14 now, and I feel lazy without the medicine. In the past I&#039;ve smoked weed, cigarettes, and other things I won&#039;t mention here, and have even been caught doing it at school, but after starting the treatment with these medicines, I haven&#039;t taken a single illegal pill or even considered smoking anything. I feel good enough on the medicine that I don&#039;t crave anything illegal of that sort.

Excuse errors and poor sentence structure. I&#039;m on my iPod.

Please take my advice and don&#039;t discourage the use if this medicine so strongly just yet. I know it&#039;s hard to trust a 14 year old boy, but I can truthfully tell you that the medicine is not thought hindering once you get past the few days of buzzing work ethic.</description>

		<description>As an entrepreneur myself, I must say Adderall is a gear of my enterprise I could not do without. Either your a worker or a strategist. as an entrepreneur you are the latter, bu the former is also important. &quot;busywork&quot; or admin work is tedious but essential. Adderall definately takes the bite out of it.</description>

		<description>see now ive taken adderall off n on for the last 11 years. i was on ritilan when i was first diagnosed with add in 6th grade. as a kids trust me i had alotttttttt of evergy but i couldnt focus to save my life in school or understand what im learning. it took me to read a paragraph 6-8 times over with out any meds just to know and understand what 3 sentences were. thats how distracted i am. but i am actally allergic to rittilan. so my jr year we tried adderall.. i got straight a&#039;s. bad thing was i weighed 90lbs. but i understood everything n didnt struggle as hard. my sr year my moom took me off it due to the weight loss. but i just started college after being out of school 10 years, and let me tell u if i didnt take adderall id be screwed. and slight noise i get bothered. i cant learn by reading. and its hard for me to grasp things easily. i was diagnosed as a tru case of add. but my son had the same prob but id never dare put him on adderall.. i mean it works wonders for me in school, thats about it. i suffer from severe adgitation, bad mood swings, i hardly eat, but thats not much  a symptom anymore cause i make sure i eat now on it. mostly i suffer from severe depression and anxioty. it makes me think of things i normally wouldnt n i single out. sit in room alone. mood swings. but i have a 3.5 gpa. i dont know what else to take. i tried focalin n it didnt do crap. i have to see a nuro but its hard when ur insurance dont cover much. but for people who truly struggle with focusing n stuff i recomend it but if your susseptible to depression i highly suggest aainst it. it causes alot of suicides. it makes you that depressed. yes ive had the thoughts too.. thats y i dont like it. n i, suppose to take 30mg a day but i take 20.. so.. it reacts to everyone differently. rittilan n focalin which r brother n sister. knoocked me out n made me real tired n didnt help in school.</description>

		<description>@16 year old kid: If you have to ask, it&#039;s probably dangerous. Use the lowest dosage you can. (Disclaimer: I am not a doctor and this should not be construed as medical advice. Consult your doctor for advice specific to your needs.)

		<description>Hi 2 years ago i was prescribed adderall for my ADD however I was underage and since my mother doesnt believe in these types of medications she wouldn&#039;t let me fill my perscription. Since one of my friends took adderall I just started getting them from him. I&#039;ve been taking it when needed for about two years now but I recently switched to a different kind. For the past few days I&#039;ve been experiencing pain in the left side of my neck, back, and chest. My chest feels very tight and I actully have to &quot;try&quot; to breath. Also, on and off, there is some kind of faint noise coming from my chest when i breath, not a cracking sound. I am a smoker so I&#039;m familiar with these types of symptoms but on the adderral they&#039;re so much worse. Again my family/ doctor doesn&#039;t know I&#039;m actually taking it and have been for years so I don&#039;t really have anyone to talk to about this. I also cant find any information about correlations between smoking-adderall-tight chest online. Have any of you experienced symptoms like mine or know where I can go to find out more information?</description>

		<description>I have been on adderall for about 6 years and let me be the first to tell you, it is very addicting.  i became addicted about 2 years ago, and i started taking about 60mg/day.  now im taking 80mg almost every day.  if you are smart, you will only take this when you need it.  i abuse it and i get horrible headaches when im coming off of my buzz.</description>

		<description>I was already doing these ADHD plls for fun it wasnt adderall but it was different, they were 50mg. Next thing i knew i was snorting 250 mg! THATS ALOT OF POWDER!A couple hours later i was having troube breathing with tight chest pains, and even thought about going to the hospital it was so painful but i just toughed it out. Ive taken a break, but this past week i started my junior year in highschool. I dont know what to say its hard, and im hearing impaired. I can hear but i use really tiny hearing aids to help me. Which bilieve it or not has caused me alot of bottled up anger and depression. Im in my 9th week of junior year and a few weeks ago i was put on 30 mg adderall XR. It started working pretty good, got my focus and organiation skills together. My social life had expanded and i was able to throw in a little online gaming(WOW)in there.  Everything seemed fine...i was getting the slight speed but since im not even really adhd or w/e and i wasnt even coming down that bad. But this past week ive been becoming paranoid. And almost every second i see a flash or a shadow to the side and jerk my head to look! I become very sleepy on the weekends since i dont take it, and i fear my tolerance is goingup.  I dont know what to do. If i ask for higher ill just sound like a druggie...And this anxiety, and these flashes, are just getting worse! Can anyone help??</description>
