Taking dexanfetamine and now having anxiety and depression ?

Hi alll hope you guys are good. So In 2014 at the age of 19 I was diagnosed with ADD. I was prescribed Dexanfetamine and noticed that after taking it I began to experience feelings of depression and anxiety that I had never felt before. We all have our sad days but this was different, I went from being a show off and the life of the party to now having extreme social anxiety , especially around loud men and men I find attractive. I now take dex for an energy boost and somewhat of a happiness boost where as I never had to before I was diagnosed. I was wondering if anyone had experienced this and had any suggestions? One last thing and this is embarrassing but I pee in bottles and hide it in my room. I have no
Clue why I do but I have done it since the age of 15. As u can image being a 27 year old male who does this is very odd. I was wondering if anyone else has heard of this before and maybe knows why I do it. Thank you guys so much.
