ADHD in adults

WR, Adderall is short acting. It's out of your body in 4-6 hrs., unless it's the SR. You're not physically addicted, but there might be a psychological aspect. You will have to get used to feeling "different," though.
What are your plans for the summer?

I guess I should clarify that I am taking 5 mg of adderroll short acting at 3 in the afternoon to supplement my normal Ritalin SR doses of 40 mg am and 20 mg pm. I used the short acting bc I didn't want to be up all night just late enough to study like I have to right now. my doctor said I could take an extra 20 SR in the afternoon but it made me feel weird?

My plan for the summer starting tomorrow at about noon is to go for a bike ride. I'd like to up my riding over the summer just to do without meds for a couple of months so when fall semester starts I can fully reap the benefit of my meds. I still have classes through the summer but I can do most of the stuff online. I don't think the summer will be as academically challenging as this semester was or next will be.

So far so good. I only felt like poo the friday after I went off my meds. I was a bit groggy at first Saturday but the 2200 ft of climbing I did sort worked that out of my system
