wtf, no it doesn't.adderall is perscribed to work 13 hours at a time . . . I don't know where you got that but you can't sleep when you're on it. you can't drink coffee, basically the stuff is very addictive if you abuse it. I take 10MG RIGHT when I wake up, it wears off by the evening.

The main difference between Adderall and most ADD/ADHD medications is that Adderall lasts approximately 24 hours per dosage (Of course, this depends entirely on the mg prescribed and the person taking the medication) whereas most of these medications actually need to build up in the patient's system to truly take affect. For instance, Adderall can be taken safely throughout the work week and left ignored over the weekend without fear of a "reverse affect" or withdrawal as I saw one or two people mention. Okay,My little brother takes adderal, not the XR, the real stuff.He takes 20 mg in the morning, and 10 mg during lunch at school.It wears off around 6 or 7 o'clock. Yes, he isn't hungry while he is on it, but he is much more controllable. I apologize for writing on a pretty dead thread.

Replying to old stuff is ok, as long as there is something new to add...NOT the "I agree with so and so" stuff we usually see.Can you explain the difference of the "real stuff" though? Every thing now is extended relief. Do you know if the other wears off sooner than what they really prescribe? I only ask, because, stuff like ibuprofen is supposed to last 6-8 hrs, but we find that in 4 it is wearing off.

Well, when I say real stuff I use the term relatively.We tried the XR for a few months, and my little brother seemed unaffected. He has a pretty bad case of ADHD, he has extreme anger problems, he doesn't respect authority, ect. So Adderall has really helped him. He's on the chess team, the quiz bowl team, and makes straight A's. He's really been focused,yes,he hates taking it,but its worth it.

I still don't understand 'real stuff'. My son originally took Adderall XR and it effected him in a big way.....he was unable to fall asleep until 11:00pm, he became extremely emotional, depressed and angry. It really wasn't for him and I was ready to say forget the whole medication thing. But then we tried Focalin and it works great. He, like your brother, is on the chess team and gets almost straight A's. Most importantly, he really likes himself and is proud of himself.Anyway, I felt I had to add that because I think medication effects people differently. What works for one may not work for another. And I really felt uncomfortable with your term 'real stuff'.

Weeds good...
No, really. Before I take a test, I blaze; it's how I get really good marks in school. I'd be like a C student with out it.
It also relives stress, which is a good thing! And lets my creativity out :).
... had to say it :eyes:.

Why do you even come here?

I'm sorry if that made you uncomfortable,It wasn't meant to be offensive.What I'm saying is, the XR lasts most of the day, but therefore the same amount of medicine has to be extended over a longer period of time.He needs more faster.When he does get home and medicine wears off, he experiences mood swings and can't always sleep, but its good overall.Also,weed...hahahaha.
