my boyfriend has been taking adderol for awhile now - longer than I suspect he's letting on to. told me he's quitting now - due to side effects. this is my question - what are the major side effects? I know loss of appetite and weight loss, dry mouth, etc. found one site that mentions change in sex drive - is this true? also, I've experienced a lower sex drive on e, except everyone tells me they have an increased libido on it. what gives?

I second BOGBUBBLE on the psychosis. I used to be "sort of" addicted to adderal. I would run around the house talking to walls and all this crazy shit.

Sores? Care to elaborate on that one? For the original poster, if you notice sores on your boyfriend, a couple of other things come to mind before Adderall.

i had 60 mg before going to a club. i was grinding with a hot chick and i didn't even get a semi-erection. the next morning i didn't even have morning wood. i had no sex drive.

Paranoia, visual disturbances, a shredded nose (if he blows it) loss of sleep, psychotic episodes (somewhat rare), aggravation of preexisting mental conditions, and neurotoxity. Possibaly other things as well. Moderiate use isn't to bad for most people though.
okay, I admit, I'm addicted to adderal....
but I keep it under control by never taking more than 20mg at once and no more than 40 mg a day and laying off every so often for a couple days to let the tolerance go down.....
but the point was, I've never experienced amphetamine psychosis.....the only side effects I've experienced are the usual nose irritations due to snorting too much/too often and I got real depressed after coming down off 40mg snorted- so I dont do that anymore.....
I don't know about the sexual side effects in guys, but I know it made my ex g/f horny and as for me and several of my female friends, it, if anything, increases sexualness....

Just because you kept to a minimum dose that doesn't mean you're less of an addict - however, as was said, it's Adderall for god sake! .. everyone else did a good job of running down the side effects - amphetamine psychosis is a reality but with Adderall you're not likely to experience TRUE psychosis unless you go balls to the wall and stay awake for days at a time - remember, thats the key componet of psychosis - sleep or lack of it .. if you get a solid 8 hours of sleep each night, then you can tweak your testicles off until you die and never experience psychosis...
As for sexual side effects - yes, thats a reality.. DEFINITLY!

^^^ Not entirely true, Phreex. Sleep deprivation by itself does not cause psychosis of any sort, though you can get hypagogic hallucinations.
Stimulant psychosis appears to be an entirely dose-related things: it acn happen if you either take a single huge dose of a stimulant, or if you go on a multi-day binge. It's just way more common to see it after a long binge, cause it's so tempting to just take more and more to stay high: and of course you're not going to sleep if you're doing this.
But sleep or lack thereof really has very little to do with it... it's the amount of stimulants you consume.

I don't see how you can keep on binging on adderall though. since you build up a tolorence so quick! For me at least the first time i had a good time with 20mg, but then it soon turned to 40mg then nothing at even 40... so i just said fuck this.

hyrdro...
as for how long you will feel it... the first time i ever did it, i took only 20 mg and felt the good effects until late in the night... i knew i had to sleep cause i had school the next day and my mom would think I was a little weird if she heard me working out in my room at 3 in the morning, lol. The next day or two my body felt like shit though... sore all over (not a good sore like u get from working out), bad stomach cramps, and diahrea (sp?)...
when i moved to 30 mg i felt the good effects into the next day. it all just depends on your tolerance, etc. if u r still feeling the good effects then be happy and pray the comedown doesn't last as long as the good part did.
as for side effects...
after 45 minutes of taking it, i feel like i could go out and run (with high dosages, in the beginning i just felt "chill", lol)... feeling like you are shaking, but you aren't... LOSS OF APPETITE, LOSS OF SLEEP, and when i took it, i didn't feel nervous about confronting people about certain things which can be both good and bad. side effects are different for different people though... no desire to sleep or eat are really common though...
