How do you know if you have ADHD? First, you have to look at whether you have the most common symptoms. These include feeling like you can’t just be in one place all of the time, as well as the need for distractions or other forms of stimulation. Maybe you’ve been feeling restless, and you can’t focus like you normally would. Or perhaps you have always been this way, and you just never got around to getting evaluated, or you have become accustomed to it. In any case, it is not so unusual for adults to have ADHD, though it is fairly diagnosed in childhood. Those thinking they may have ADHD would want to get in touch with a medical doctor so that they can be properly looked over. This way, you will know whether you actually do have the disorder, and you can work towards a treatment that works best for you.

Narcolepsy and Symptoms
Would you know if you had narcolepsy? More than likely, since the signs pertaining to it are much more obvious. While you might feel tired and fatigue-ridden, these are minor compared to falling asleep at various points throughout the day. Narcolepsy is perhaps most famous for being a disorder that has people falling asleep at the wrong moments, such as during a meeting or when socializing, you know. The location does not matter, as the disorder will have you falling asleep (or be close to falling asleep) whenever the affliction hits you. As you might happily expect, there are treatments for narcolepsy that can be sought out.
You might be wondering why ADHD and narcolepsy were both brought up in the same conversation. That’s because they can both be treated with one very special form of medication: Adderall. EzCare Clinic is able to help you get evaluated and assist you with the different options you have, including medication. Our licensed physicians will be able to help you determine whether something like Adderall would be best for you or not.

Adderal XR -Dosage and Abuse
It’s not difficult to take the low dosage prescribed and think you need more; the request for either more or a higher dosage is one doctor is quite familiar with. So while amphetamines can be helpful, they can also be abused. Be sure to consult with your doctor about the possibility of being dependent on Adderall, especially if you think you have addictive personality traits.
Side-effects of Adderal XR
Let us not forget the associated side-effects of Adderall. Among them include:
- Weight loss
- Blurred vision,
- Fatigue,
- Dry mouth
- Sexual dysfunction
Due to everyone being different, the way the drug affects you varies. Nevertheless, it’s important to understand the very real and potential unintended effects that taking Adderall can give you.
Adderall- XR Checks
How Does Adderall XR Work?
Those who may be suffering from ADHD tend to have a low concentration of something known as dopamine. This is a neurotransmitter that works within the brain’s reward center, which allows us to have the motivation to do the things that we do. Enjoy eating a meal, having a refreshing drink, or having sexual intercourse? The brain center is what helps us want to do certain things so that we may be rewarded. Dopamine is a major player in this center, so when it’s lacking, your brain is having trouble staying focused because it is in desperate need of attention.
This is where Adderall comes in; it confronts any dopamine you may have and stimulates with the brain’s receptors, allowing the brain to release dopamine the way it regularly should. You then become much more distracted internally, which, in a way, scratches that itch you’ve been craving, which then allows you to stay more alert and focused.
How Long Does Adderall XR Take to Work?
Adderall XR (extreme release) is a much more intense version of the more basic IR (immediate-release). Where each dose of IR lasts for a few hours and must be taken throughout the day, XR should only be taken once per day because one dose lasts for around 12 hours. Due to its strength and potency, you should only ever take Adderall XR once every 24 hours. The higher intensity of XR also extends to how long it can sit within your body. One dose can essentially rest for a full day; it will not completely leave your system until a few days have passed.
