"adderall xr has changed my life. for years, i have struggled with depression and just not feeling well. i happened across an article on adult add and recognized the symptoms. i talked to my doctor and went off effexor xr and then began taking adderall xr. before, i has lost focus by 11 a.m. and didn&#039;t even know where to begin on projects for work. everything just seemed to be too difficult to do. i couldn&#039;t make it through the day without a long nap. i feel great, am actually enjoying my work, and don&#039;t need naps anymore. always take it first thing in the morning; otherwise, it will interfere with sleep."
