ADD - Concerta vs Adderall(adderrall)

[aadomer]

I have been taking 54mg of concerta for my ADD for about 4 years now. I dont feel like it is working the best for me though. I dont feel much like myself i feel zombie-like and kind of out of it. It keeps my mind awake but my body is telling me im exhausted. Although it helps me focus more than when i wasn't taking it i still will be focusing on 20 different things at once and can never really get anything accomplished. so my question is does anyone have any first hand experience with taking adderall (adderrall) because im trying to weigh the difference between the two.

I'm a lot older than you but I've taken adderall (adderrall) for about 5/6 years.  I am able to concentrate and focus better than before....I've never felt like a zombie (at least not from the adderall (adderrall)....but I digress).  It will cause insomnia if you take it too late in the day.

Hope this helps

Adderall will prolly work out best for you at first.  But you are highly more proned to get addicted to adderall (adderrall)...ive been on adderall (adderrall) for 4 years and I abuse it to be honest,,,Now its a fighting battle to get off the drug,,,If you are going to switch to adderall (adderrall) make sure you take exactly what your suppossed to....You slip up once and take that extra pill it can pull you in... Just remember that.Adderall (adderrall) and other kinds of add/adhd drugs are suppossed to be used as a tool. Dont make the mistake I did and abuse it...Good luck
