Also, the biggest difference of AD/HD would be if you’ve had these symptoms for a long time, not just seem to appear out of nowhere. If you’re 53, I’d almost put dollars to donuts you need to be taking thyroid medication, if you’re not already.
Was your adderall prescribed by a PCP or have you actually been diagnosed by a psychiatrist?
Many people experience bad symptoms at first, because simply–their brains are not ADHD and they do not require a stimulant–they’re brains are stimulated enough.
