Can second this, I started on Adderall but it has severe side effects for me. I read up on it and due to the Left handed amphetamines in the formula it causes more parasympathetic nervousness system stimulation as opposed to central nervousness system stimulation which is what the dextro-amphetamine target. You may want to try Dexedrin which is only dextro-amphetamine or Desoxyn which is methamphetamine. In my case after reading I asked the Doc if I could try Desoxyn and given Adderall was night and day for me, Desoxyn was like a superpower. Methamphetamine more easily crosses the blood brain barrier so there is less left in the body for the PNS. So you can take lower doses, get less physical effect, while getting more pronounced mental effect. Desoxyn should be the front line medicine for ADD/ADHD but it's old, cheap and not under patent.
Thirded. My psychologist helped me go through 5 different medications and various doses to find the right one for me. Help with managing concentration enough that I've been promoted (like 4 times... suckers), with no emotional or physical side effects (including loss of appetite).
Almost embarrassed to admit that I've never heard of Desoxyn but am very intrigued. It was never mentioned to me when I was getting meds, nor when my son was.
I live in "meth country" unfortunately so getting a prescription may be a challenge, but at least I have the paperwork.
Most people have not heard of it, my Doc had never heard of it. It is old (in used since the 1940's IIRC) and rarely used nowadays, due to the fact that there is no marketing budget around it. As for getting a script it should not be that hard the dose is so low that a meth addict would have to take a quarter of the bottle to achieve the same effect as smoking street meth. Desoxyn is a salt so it is not smoke-able and smoking is the way that Crystal Meth achieves such an intense high.
