Man-oh-man,
I just started adderall xr on Friday so I'm interested in your experience thus far. You wrote that you started two weeks ago and apparently it has made a difference. How much are you taking and what is your sachedule throughout the day? I was told to begin with one 5 mg capsule in the am and then up it to 10 mg. So far I have not noticed much.

> Very happy this post is going - I just started adderall two weeks ago and wow!, what a difference. Because I take Zyprexa I can conceivably sleep *all* the time. I am just learning how to regulate my dosages. This thread is very insightful. As for what you said, bigdaddy, "I wonder if I need to change my diet, eat more of something particular during the day, exercise, etc. " I know it's easier said than done, but part of you knows you should be doing this, so go for it! It will definenitely (sp?) elevate your mood. I suggest walking as it doesn't cost a thing, fresh air, you don't need a personal trainer, etc. And for mattw84 "add'ers are notoriously not morning people!", right on! Morning for me is around 1pm. (Thank goodness I work from home). Okay folks, thanks again for bringing this stuff up.
