Most adhd/add meds, bring you down/depression sets in, after it wears off.
I have 15yrs of exp with this condition & finding the ight meds for my daughter.
Now in 0th grade & after trying all that's available. Ritalin has been fine for me as a child and now at 37.

My daughter's Dr Rx'ed her an extended release form of add med that lasts about 8 hours & also a short acting form that lasts 3-4hrs for after work/school to keep her balanced nd not depressed. also helping her to do her homework and then clonodine to hlp her to sleep by etime.

You should talk to your Dr and see if he/she will do this for your keeping your add/adhd symptom to be gone all day. No one but us with add/adhd know how it feels to feel that way. There's no reason we should have to live with it uncomfortably.

Take care...

My daughter was on adderall and it wasn't good  she has been on so many different meds, we finnally found one that works after 3 yrs it is called tenex she is like a new child. Also you have to really find a good doctor which we did. I would ask your doctor about it. Now my son was on concerta and it worked wonders my daughter was also on it and it caused alot of tics and she still couldn't sit still.

         I HOPE I HELPED ALITTLE

Try Adderall XR...it's an extended-release capsule. Regular Adderall is an immediate-release tablet, which wears off after maybe 5 hours, i'd say. But Adderall XR should do the trick...ask your doctor about it =] best of luck

adderall and concerta both have seizures as a side effect along with other bad side effects,and so do all other medicines.

you can to see if it is worth the risk.

Have you tried taken vitamins like omega 3 and vitamins b6.

most drugs ware off.

best of luck to you.
