yes, as a stimulant adderall shunts away blood from your extremities, making them cold. its also why you have a harder time maintaining an erection on amphetamines, and get shrinkage.

I took aderal for ADHD up until my freshman year of highschool. Around this time i would walk in first bell and it would seem like my heart was going to explode in my chest it was beating so hard. It also made me very anti-social and quiet. I honestly think that ADD and ADHD were just made up diseases to market these drugs.

i got adhd ..diagnosed in the 90th percentile for it to. I take a non stimulant since adderals and those tend to fuck you up pretty hard if you take them on a regular basis

this..

it can be worse to if you already have bad circulation or high blood pressure or anything like that. your best solution would be just trying a lower dose.

it makes sense that it makes your hands and feet cold because the way it works is that people with ADD and ADHD blood pressure runs like your cocaine but when you take the medicine it slows down your blood pressure where in turn will most likely send out less blood to you hands and feet resulting in cold hands and feet. simple science.

I used to see the best doctor until he went like bankrupt. Estate sale and the whole 9


He prescribed 165 20mg generic non-time released awesome ritalin a month. The math was 5.5x 20mg pills a day. They were generic so I walked out paying $5 a prescription every time.

Now every Doc bawks at those numbers, and this last fucking doctor fucking prescribed was non-generic time released 30mg ritalin and the shit SUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKS. AND I had to pay $50 for fucking 30 pills. I am like what the fuck is this shit, I paid $5 for 3300mg of ritalin, now I pay $50 for 900mg of time released ritalin.


I am so fucking pissed about this shit. Makes me pissed talking about it.


I am going to be like hey
1) These don't work, it does not help me concentrate that much
2) they last forever. I don't have time to speed until 2:30 in the morning because I took my pill at 3:30 in the afternoon and I just needed to study for a few hours
3) what the fuck man $50 prescription, i hope novartis hooks you up with some of this cash.........(turns out he prescribes a drug that novartis has a patent on and only they can sell you the overpriced drug, no generics).

At least I have a good reason to tell my next psychiatrist why I left this one.........I couldn't afford his trial and error when I had a proven medication before.

Eating more peppers helps with cold hands and feet.

But you should actually stop taking that shit, It will mess you up a lot more in the long run.

ya i take methylphenidate which is similar to all these other thing but for the 10 years, ya i know thats a longggggg time, i have been taking it i have never had any problems with focus. Also never felt any different, such as like feeling like a zombie. Really it makes me more awake and clear minded. If i never used it i probably would be failing in all classes, but with it i have been able to maintain A's and B's

Focalin. I found it works wonders, and no side effects (for me at least). Took adderrall for a while, it made me restless, no appetite, etc. With Focalin, none of those exist.

I used to be on a high dosage of adderal from like 3rd grade till this spring. It was my decision to get off of it. The depressive withdraws from it were fucking with me.. It made me all socially awkward and shit like that. I must say I have seen a drastic change since then from not taking it. I do have a bottle of concertta I use to when I gotta crank out copious amounts of homework.
