Dealing with Adderall-induced Anxiety

Does anyone have even more anxiety when taking their Adderall. I’ve been on Adderall for about 6 years now and I’ve never had issues with it but within the past 6 months my anxiety has been at an all time high and it seems like taking my meds… yes helps with my adhd but it also worsens my anxiety. Do any of you have tricks in dealing with this?

Might be time to switch to a different adhd med. Doesn't have to mean non stimulant, can just mean Concerta or Vyvanse. Are you on extended or regular release? Are you on any new meds, any antidepressants?

Have you thought about non stimulant adhd meds? I've never personally had them but they do exist:) stimulants (with anyone) can lead to anxiety sometimes
