[quote=Anonymous]It’s a sucky drug to take long  term. As an adult diagnosed with adhd, it was like a lightbulb went off when my dr finally realized that the antidepressants I was taking weren’t rooting out the real issue: underperformance at work and in grad school. My life became great! I could actually follow through on all my innate brightness and was richly rewarded. 
But you will feel strung out and have insomnia. It’s important to be extra vigilant about eating healthy food and not just running on fumes. What helps for insomnia? Never quite figured that one out. 
I did nickname it Madderrall because my fuse was like so short it was nonexistent. I would fume! DH and I had horrendous fights but looking back I think our marriage was actually pretty strong because I was so successful in other areas. 
Haven’t taken it since I got pregnant 5 years ago and I do fine but I SAH. Worried for my DS who is brilliant but shows signs if you know what to look for. 
I would say there are about 10% of the population that really need it. My mom for example never completed much in her life despite having crazy energy and diverse interests, she probably could be a PhD if they knew about this back then. She definitely has a problem! My DH in the other hand cruises through grad school no sweat and studied and aced tests with the TV on and the kids running around. Definitely doesn’t have a problem. 
Sucks that it’s so widely abused, those people would be addicted to anything! Some people really need it despite desperately not wanting to take anything. [/quote]
