Adderall Problems :: So Angry And Slamming Doors
Jan 16, 2006
My 5 year-old son has been taking adderall for four months now and I can’t stand to watch him suffer this much. We haven’t noticed any changes in his problem but I noticed some really bad behavioral problems that occurred when he started taking this drug. He would just get angry suddenly with no reason at all, he would go around the house slamming doors and this is just not the way a five year old should behave or suffer. I don’t know what to do? Look for another treatment or….? Is there anybody who could relate to this problem?

I have a friend who is literally a genius. Ever since his abuse of Adderall which he believes inspires him to write at his best. (he is a journalistic writer) His writing though still has quality it is very rare that he writes anything at all. He has been mean, nasty, irritable, unreasonable, angry, judgemental, etc. He has always has cocky tendencies. But I find it so sad that his abuse of this drug has ended many friendships for him and his talent seems to be going to waste. Are these normal side effects of abusing this drug? He isn't ADHD by any means. We are no longer friends to be honest with you but I am concerned. He is 37, lives in one of his relatives basement, and is just down right mean. I have never met anyone as amazing as him, the person before the adderall. And now he hates me for some ridiculous reason that I SHOULD BE MAD AT HIM over. It's almost as if he has lost his mind.

So..my daughter wanted to go shopping. I felt a little blah, tightness in chest before we left. A light was changing from yellow to red, and i made a very fast right hand turn so i wouldn't be stuck at a dreaded red light. After the turn I felt a burning in my stomach that quickly spread throughout my whole body. I glanced in the mirror and was bright red..had to pull over. Heart started slamming and so fast...legs shaking. Opened the door, and got out to get air..telling myself im ok, im ok as my daughter sat there ( really sad) 20 mins later and heart slowed enough to drive and here i am. Daughter very angry and confused. Cold feeling in my arms, headache and a slight burning in chest and exhausted. Feeling guilty. Although i feel i managed ok...and made it through...ehh...feel bad. Does this even sound like a panic attack?

I was researching about Hallucinating, and I saw that it was linked to Schizophrenia, and Isaw the symptoms and it seems that i had the same symptoms. For example, hallucinating, I would hear creepy sounds, someone slamming the door, someone screaming across the street, humming sound, and also sounds telling me im worthless, stupid etc, and when i was younger i would talk to my imaginary friends, and imagine scary things in my room that aren't actually there. And also I experience delusion, I'm afraid all the time and I'm always worried, wherever I go, I would think that someone behind me if following me and trying to kidnap me, and sometimes I think my parents adopted me while I'm actually not. And I used to have that I have super powers like moving objects via my mind or controlling waves. And I used to think that people see my appearance as if Someone else. Also I believe that one day I will meet the people that I've seen in my dreams, and other weird stuff. Whenever I hear creepy thing or imagine scary things, I would just start shaking and my heart start beating so fast. And I have that feeling when I'm sleeping that someone behind me is going to stab me. I've always had depression because uhm let's say I just have a sh*tty life, and I experience a lot of mood swings (a lot) I would be nice and in a moment I would just start screaming and hitting myself and pulling my hair.
Do I have schizophrenia?

I'm at my wits end and am sure I'm close to a breakdown. My husband is no help. Everything is or rating the living daylights out of me and I'm getting so upset and angry. I don't know what to do with myself. I've been diagnosed with anxiety and depression and was prescribed medication but it made be sleep. I couldn't function whilst taking them. I've weaned myself off them over the last month and have a Dr appointment scheduled in two weeks but I don't know if I can last that long. I'm considered ending it all but have a family that I don't want to scar. Everything is so hard, each day I don't want to get out of bed because I know there will be a drama that will knock me. My husband is ignorant to it all. He does try, he asks how I am, he tries to help around the house and he works really hard but when I tell him I've had a bad day or I have a moan about something, he thinks it's all about him. He asked me why I'm blaming him all the time. I'm so angry right now, I want to leave but I have nowhere to go and no passport and no spare money. I wish God would just take me. Another reason why I can't end my own life is best cause I won't go to heaven and after living in hell for so long I want to go to paradise one day.

I have been on Mit for a long time now. I was on Prozac but it didn't work. I was on 30mg a day, before bed. Now im on 45 mg a day before bed.
I don't sleep properly still. I've been diagnosed with severe depression.
The drug makes me very very angry at the slightest thing.
I go nuts and throw things, swear at friends and family.
Things I would never normally do.
However, there has been one upside.
4 days ago, I felt happy. After 4 months of not feeling a single emotion except anger and pain, I felt happy. I cried, I was so shocked.
I had forgotten what happiness felt like. And when I felt it, I didn't know what to do. It almost hurt. So I just cried.
But the point is that I was happy. For the first time in months. Keep taking the pills. They make you feel something.

I'm 19 years old and as i was growing up i always had 1 major issue in life. i was always very angry person. i would get mad at every simple and dumb things that aren't even worth getting stressed and mad about.
over the past few years, i have been in fact smoking weed. it started of on smoking on only occasion and it escalated to a point where i smoke almost everyday of my life if anything a few times a day. and when i smoke, i smoke a lot. i heard from a therapist that smoking weed gets you more aggravated and gets you more nervous than you usually get. i am really not happy with the way i am cause im in a situation of losing the girl i love most and as much as i try and say i will become better i don't. my temper always overcomes me and i don't know how to manage it. what im asking is, does marijuana make someone who already has a bad temper and a bad anger problem even more nervous and more stressed out then they already are?

I'm on day 10 of mirtazapine 15mg & i feel shocking if i'm being honest. I feel so agitated with no patience & feel so angry at everything, not to mention very low. Everything is just getting on my nerves big time.
Did anyone else get this with this drug & is it normal because i thought it was meant to help calm you down. I'm just so sick of feeling crap everyday.

I'm not a heavy smoker, i'll smoke like a few times a week. The first time I tried salvia, I hit a bowl of it with some weed sprinkled on top and right after I took it in. I lost control of my body and I fell face first on my table and my nose started bleeding. I thought this was because I also took an adderall earlier in the morning and I smoked before. Something similar happened to me the other day except I was only hitting a regular bowl with batch. Right after I took it I lost control of my body and felt like I blacked out for a second and fell to the ground. Next thing i realize I'm on the ground and my friends said I was shaking. I smoked weed earlier that day to but nothing like this has ever happened before while smoking week normally.

Wondering if anyone else has had this issue or has suggestions on how to treat it. (It sounds strange, but it's true and troubling.)
I took Adderall regularly from 2011-2013 and had no ED issues, but delayed ejaculation. Since then, I've switched to a different antidepressant medication, and when I restarted the Adderall, I had ED.
I would watch porn and masturbate for up to 30 minutes before I could get an erection. When I did, I would have some pre-ejaculate (which I never had before). Once I got an erection, because it took so much work, I didn't want to lose it! So I would put on a c*** ring and edge for up to an hour before ejaculating. Even if I only took the Adderall a few days a week, these side effects and the subsequent cycle continued daily. I've stopped the Adderall, but I still have to masturbate a flaccid penis for up to 15 minutes before it gets erect, and like before, there's eventually pre-ejeculate, I get very hard, then can masturbate normally and eventually ejaculate.
I feel like the aggressive type of masturbation I used to produce an erection when I was taking the Adderall has completely altered my penis' reaction to stimulation. Now, 15 minutes of stimulation + porn produces pre-ejaculate and then an erection. Stimulation from a partner does nothing to arouse me. I now have to go through this process to get an erection.
I've never had ED issues before, or any trouble getting an erection when masturbating or with a partner. Now, after all the aggressive masturbation caused by the Adderall-ED issues, my penis' response is so drastically different, I'm worried and don't know what to do?
Will an ED med get me back on track? Do I have to avoid masturbation and porn for an extended period of time and then my arousal cycle will return to normal? I feel like I've literally retrained my penis on how to respond to stimulation, and I need to retrain it back to normal, but not sure what to do.
Has anyone else experienced this or have suggestions?

Is Adderall effective in adults as well as children?
View 2 Replies
I take adderall for adult add i started taking it approx august 2011 while going to school and took it throughout the fall, spring, and also summer 2012 semester. When i first started taking it i noticed a rapid weight loss which is a side effect of the drug and i wanted to lose a few pounds so it was not only helping me concentrate but also helped me lose weight. I do however work out too as i am a very active person, but after taking the medicine for a few months i noticed that i gained all of the weight i lost back if not more and i'm really upset about it. my starting weight was between 150/155 im a 28 year old female im 5'5 with a medium frame. I stopped taking it this past june after my summer class which ended june 28 2012 due to the expensive price of even the generic brand "ampheta" which is what i take, not to mention to see the psychiatrist every few months for medication follow up its around 200$ a visit because my insurance will not cover it so i stopped taking it to save the money until i start classes back up again this august. i was only taking 1 of the 2 doses of the 20 mg a day that are instructed on my script because my classes were so close together. i spoke to my doctor about it and he said 1 pill a day is ok, im pretty sure im on the 20 mg generic adderall xr. here is the question that i have, as i am active i do have a crappy diet which does not help matters, but i am trying to improve my diet. once i start taking the adderall this upcoming august will i have the same side effect of weight loss or does that normally only happen the first time you take it? when i was a kid i took ritalin and when i started adderall in august 2011 my weight dropped to 139.5 which is the lowest i had been since high school. a comfortable weight for me would be between 135 and 145 but i don't want to look sickly thin as i am 5'5, 28 years old 29 in december and medium frame/average build. will the weight come back off once i start taking the med again? please help! i do exercise and im trying to change my appetite but im so upset that i gained it all back.

I am 23 years old, college student in adderall 20mg 2 x days. I am taking adderall primarily for weight control. I don’t think I have eating disorder, but I think I became depended on this drug. I was wonder is anyone else here on adderall or some amphetamine and how does feel. I think that I am severely depressed when I am not on a drug. I can restrict my food and I have a constant fear of getting fatter. I did try to stop once but I put on 10 kilos in 2 months.

My son is diagnosed with ADHD so obviously he needs some medications to treat his condition. Doctor prescribed him Adderall. Since we have no experience with this medicine I would like to hear some info about it. Are there some negative effects of this medicine, as one friend of mine warrants me? Can you tell me something more about Adderall long-term health effects?

So I am no stranger to adderall. I first got prescribed it when I was in high school (I am almost 23 now), but I have only taken it on and off, never more than maybe a couple months at a time. I'm really bad at staying consistent with medications. I started a new job a month ago in which I work 10 hours and have to be able to focus at all times so I went back to a psych and got prescribed adderall again. I started out at 20mg and it was just too much, it was giving me horrible anxiety. So I got reduced down to 10 mg, which was fine and all but it wasn't lasting as long as I needed it to, so I asked to get switched to 10mg time release capsules. Those have been great, and I only take them on days I work, although again I have been kind of on and off with it. I have taken it about 3 days in a row now and I've noticed my throat feels kind of swollen (doesn't hurt though), sometimes it is hard to swallow when I am laying down and my tongue has that feeling like after you burn it from drinking something really hot (but I haven't burned it from what I can remember). I've also noticed the inside corners of my mouth feel a little tender. Could this be caused by the adderall? I tried to do some google research and it said it could be allergies and the changing of the weather but I've never had something like this happen before due to allergies.
