Short temper...increased impatience...total loss of motivation (so ironic!).... depression/anxiety...panic attacks... Painful acne outbreaks... arthritis....tension headaches....extreme dry mouth and dry eye... Just to name a few. Doc prescribed to treat my ADD, and I have been taking the XR religiously for over 3 years... Now I have finally reached my breaking point and undoubtedly believe the increasingly worse negative effects of the drug now, by far, outnumber the positives... I am just beginning my journey off Adderall...and I'm scared as hell about withdrawal. I shared my feelings about quitting with my doc today, hoping to get a "weaning off" plan, but he insisted I simply quit cold turkey. I have been a patient of his since I was just 6 years old and I trust him, but am terrified none the less...
