I have just started taking adderall on Wednesday. I am suppose to be taking 10 mg twice a day. For the first day I started off with 5mg, and then progressed to 10mg the following day. When I take the first pill I usually feel a nice boost of focused energy, but shortly after that I begin to feel a bit anxious, and slightly moody. This evening I had to take a 5.5mg of Clonazepam to help with my panicky feelings. I also ended up feeling a bit depressed. Are these the usually side affects in the beginning? I was hoping this medicine would help with my focus at work, school, and chores concerning mother hood. Is there a reason why my first dose of the day supplies me with positive energy, and then spirals into this uncomfortable cooped up energy? Do you have any advice, or suggestions of some other medicines that may work better? I feel like the goal I was try to reach has backed fired, and I am back to square one. I would really appreciate you expertise. Thank you for your time.
