I suffer from ADHD, Ive been on Adderall for 4 years and every year my doctor increases my dosage, because it becomes obvious toward the later part of that year my actions are reverting back to that chaotic life. I'm at 80mg instant release and I've been on vivance, concerta, rittlin, and stratera, that last one made me real sick..... I showed instant improvement with adderall, so that was a keeper, however, I didn't know what I was in for.
I've been real good with my life up until this past year. I've noticed an odd smell coming from what I think is my pores and it's only during the 6-8 hours I'm on the medication, well, a couple hours after as well, which is why I think the smell is related to the increase of medication. The smell resembles a little like wet dog and a little like fart (bad egg). I've been through 3 jobs already this year because of my paranoia of smelling bad at work and I can only use so many colognes. Before you think I'm paranoid as a result of the medication (which was my first thought) I began to closely watch for faces , because most people just won't tell you you smell bad, but sure enough, they were there, followed by some avoiding behavior.
Could somebody tell me why I may be experiencing this, I'd like to keep things going they way they were and if anybody knows someone with ADHD, it's almost impossible to change something that works productively for them.
