Hey, my name is Daniel. I've been on Adderall for mild problems of focusing in college and, man, has it helped! I was wondering if there was anyone else that has experienced a change in their academic performance, preferably college but high school works too, from before being put on Adderall to after being on this drug. If you have a long story I'd be happy to read it either on here or you can email me at: coloradoman80@hotmail.com
Thanks for you input.
Daniel

Hi, Daniel. It doesn't surprise me. For me, when I switched from Ritalin SR to Adderall, the very first day I took it I noticed I was calmer and much more focused. I'm not in school, but my job involves some paper work and organization, so I imagine that if I were in school, I would feel it would help. If not improve my grades, then at least perhaps make it less of a struggle to stay on top of my work.
Just be careful to not get caught up in thinking "more is better" because it can be very addictive. Stick to your doctor's orders.
Glad school is going better!!

Yeah! I hope you overcome the ADD/ADHD symptoms. Life is hard enough I am guessing without it. I haven't been diagnosed w/ADD or ADHD, (I have been diagnosed w/depression, anxiety,) OCD, but I have been in my condition for many years and find it extremely difficult to focus or stay on top of things. Supposedly I am regarded as smart but, I can't seem to live up to that. I certainly hope that you find some happiness in your improvement by using Adderall.
