"when i was in my last year of college i started seeing a psychologist for depression. after 6 months she screened me for adhd and started me on adderall. it was ok for a while but she upped my dosage to 40mg per day. that was too much for me so i quit taking it. i noticed the difference when i wasn&#039;t on it. i felt way less focused, tired, and my moods were worse.  when i got a job with insurance after a year, i started taking it again. it has helped me tremendously! i only take 10mg per day now."
