I started taking Adderall regularly a few years ago. At first, it was like a miracle pill. Finally, I felt like my brain was functioning like a normal person. I was very detailed, very analytical, and very motivated. Over the years, I have progressively increased my dosage to achieve the same results. Currently, on a daily basis, I am taking 40-55mg of Adderall XR (25mg, 15mg, 15mg), which is a VERY high dosage considering it's extended release and not the instant release. Each increase in dosage has resulted in new side effects. The one side effect I am currently experiencing is mood swings. For those who know me well, I am a super happy, cheery guy and can be pretty damn passive. Now, if you said one wrong thing, I turn into Katie Kaboom and am likely to bite your head off, for no reason I might add. I've also lost a ton of weight, which in my case, is not a good thing considering I was already thin.

Your insight would be greatly appriciated!
