...Just my $0.02 :
It's occurred to me that the rage/anger aspect of eXtended Release Adderall "wear off", ages children->adult is beginning to be hugely documented on many sites that i've been surfing...
Or maybe i've just been attentive to that ;)

i've experienced that anger aspect with stimulant medicine before, so i thought i'd share what might contribute to it's absence for me~

The Adderall formula that i have found works best is to take my largest portion of daily dose of Regular Adderall first thing in the morning, and reduce portion dose in descending steps while increasing the time between doses. On occasion, to counter a return to stimulation when the last dose wears off in the evening, i take 5mg Adderall (regular) to enable me to calm & sleep.

ALSO it's my understanding that stims do use and can deplete a body/psyche of it's vitamins and stress or wellness hormones. Replenishing for and during the "wear off" time is key for me, too. I'd share what my own best nourishment and suppliment formula for that is, but those questions are really best addressed by more knowledgeable people on psychbabble-Alternative by many of the people who post there who know SO much more than i do about it all... besides, i'm really sleepy right now and it's finally bedtime for bozo.

>>I know exactly what you mean, i tried and taken all adderall, adderall Xr, dexedrine, and desoxyn-all the amphetamines for 5 yrs. They all really work, but man when they wear off, whew! i am CRANKY!! and tired, but more cranky. I swear i just want EVERYONE to leave me alone, and everything makes me irrtible. Adderall is amphetamine, and sometimes it depends on each person, but they have been known for there "up and downs" or "crash". people who take amphetamine(s) usally feel fatigue after it wears off, because the stimulant effect diminishes. Have any other questions, ask me.

P.S. (Escher here again)
Okay, after some sleepy debate with myself, i've decided to post this wonderful comment about amphetamine in an old friend's work of writing:
"It's not FUEL, man! ...it's an accelerator pedal. Infact it's not even the pedal, it's... 'pedal pushers'*! Back to cycling, man! ...sure glad I'm driving... I BETTER be driving!"

*'pedal pushers' : bottom half clothing for riding bicycles, etc., circa-? children only?

Beam me up scott-y,
Escher
