Reward Deficiency Syndrome, Motivation and ADD

Posted by psychopharmaddict on February 16, 2006, at 8:41:08

Im looking for some imput on anyone familiar with these closely related ailments. To keep it short, My symptoms before being diagnoses with ADD, but unsure if im 100 percent on having RDS, and or extreme Social Isolation,or Social Axiety to call it. But when I was Administered 30mg of adderal IR, 2-3x daily, It was like someone tapped into my brain and rewired it correctly.

Lack of motivation, just laying around watching tv, almost non existant love live from not going out at all, never going on my computer to research, and about 5 other important issues, but adderall had made me the exact opposite, Motivated, I could work 10 hrs, and then blab for one hour, and go online for another 4 hrs!.

Would anyone agree with my phylosiphy of possibly my ADD is deep limbic inactivity or too much activity and not enough being released into the prefrontal lobes. I never had a SPECT or PET scan, but I often wonder what was the problem , specifically, except for a doctor saying I have ADD and giving me adderall., at 30mg 3x daily , a pretty high dose.

I know its not serotonin releated, after trying 6 different serotonin/NE meds with little efficentcy, and Im not depressed. Again, my response to Amphetamines was phenominal, with a little bit of klonopin to take the edge off, but now i feel i need adderall for rest of my life, or until a new drug (NOT STRATTERRA) arises.
