Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
It may be per your description that you might be experiencing adult-onset ADHD. Sometimes in these cases a trial of a low-dose stimulant such as Adderall XR is warranted. This is not without risk -- stimulants can cause insomnia, malnutrition, anxiety, and addiction. Talk with your prescribing doctor about the risks and benefits of trying this medication.
