Comments on: ADHD, Drugs and Psychosis?
I am glad the fda is looking into this. I have been struggling with adderal and the sideffects that are being mentioned. The adderal helps by making me more productive but if I take it more than 3 days in a row i will go into what i think is a manic type state. plus i cant always remember if i have done something or not; or if what happened was a dream or not; i am really stuck between a rock and a hard place
