Ok so i took adderall for the first time today , one 30mg capsule, and i didnt blow it i took it normally, and it really helped increase my concentration and i did really well in school by paying attention and staying on track , so how do i convince my parents that i have ADD or even that the adderall helps , without saying i tried it? have any of you done this, or anyone that has ADD , how do you get tested for it?

Everyone says they have ADD, almost like it's fun to have.

A doctor probably, or maybe the butcher downtown. Pretty obvious.

You can get tested though your school. Just talk to your teacher about it. But I would recomend staying off the adderal if you dont need it. That shit'll fuck with ya.

Adderall is basically perscription speed. I don't think you really want the long term effects of speed. Maybe just man up and pay fucking attention in class? I probably shouldn't be talking because I love adderall and it does help me concentrate for studying and in class.

If you really want some though, just go through your family doctor, and make you you "fail" all the tests they give you.

it helps everyone concentrate but that doesn't mean you need it. i take it occasionally for finals and whatnot, but a few weeks ago i had a real fucked up experience coming down from it, like my being really shaky and numb and tingly all over, it was fucked up.

All of you who need drugs to do well in school are just stupid or brainwashed. You can do well without drugs.

hahah i know what you mean dude
my friend gave me some and i parachuted 45 mg in my first period and it was great, i actualy didnt want to kill myself because i was in class cept i burnt out hard 3 hours later since i crushed all the time releases and just went home
but yeah its kind of hard to get since so many people abuse it. You'll probaly get prescribed to ritalin first which sucks cus ritalin is horrible then you'll have to convince the doctor that ritalin doesnt work, by then he'll either think your bullshitting him to get adderall to get hihg off of or he'll give it to u

I dont need them to do well in school man, I need them to do well in other things.  I forget shit all the time, I have lost so many things in my life its ridiculous.  Adderal helps me become more organized.

I am not gonna argue with people on whether add exists or not.  You aren't me or my doctor, so don't talk about something that you have no idea about.

this is why it's a prescription drug.  you have to go through (or at least SHOULD go through) extensive testing before you can be diagnosed with ADD.

Yea it's mad addictive and legit starts to rule your life...you start thinking you can't do anything without it...I hate how I "need" it now just because it was helpful for a couple of tests and I would go back and change my decision if I could...basically I'm saying DON'T START DOING IT! You don't have anything (ADD or ADHD) that natural attention boosters (Omega III) can't help...Trust me you don't wanna be in that situation...
