You should probably talk with your doctor about how Adderall is affecting your mood--they have experience with various ADHD medications and the side effects. Sometimes it takes a little bit of trial and error to find the right medication and the right dose. Experts say it could take several weeks to fine tune a person's ADHD medication.

Take a look at this chart listing ADHD medications and their known side effects for a rundown on various stimulant medications.

If you just can't tolerate the side effects of ADHD medications, you might have some success with alternative ADHD treatments such as diet or supplements.

I think the most important thing is to work with your doctor. You shouldn't have to suffer side effects. It just takes a little patience.

Good luck, Dena
