[ADPiAkron]

I take 5mg of Adderal.

So I started it today and all is well....a little better with patience, irritability, etc. But my short term memory is even worse I think!! I went to let some guy into the basement at my work-- well on my way to my office to get the keys I started to think about something else and by the time I got my purse opened I forgot what I was looking for!! It is acutally kind of funny-- but scary too!! Oh yea-- I eventually remembered what I was doing!

Has anyone ever had their short term memory get worse after starting the meds? If so, did it eventually improve?



Edited because I thought I took 10mgs but I take 5mgs....nice attention to detail!!! I am already noticing a small difference-- but I can tell it will take a higher dosage to make a more noticeable difference. I am just glad that the side effects are not too bad-- having trouble sleeping is my only one and they say that tends to go away after time. I tend to have bad reactions to most medications I have taken in the past-- so this is a good thing!
