Yes, DH and I both have it. I was on Adderall XR before becoming pregnant, I am taking a break from it because I am nursing. Dh is also on Adderall XR. The XR is the time released one so it lasts all day

Re: Does anyone have ADD as an adult? D
Yes I have it. I take Adderall. I only take it when I need it. I am in college so I take it when I am studying or taking an exam. I don't like to take any meds, this works for me. It has made a huge difference in my life & i got through this semester will a lot less stress. I know there are different schools of thought taking it every day v when you need it but the way I am using it works for me & my Dr is onboard with it.

Re: Does anyone have ADD as an adult? D
My son (9 yo) has ADD. Since he's been diagnosed, I've met 4 adults who volunteered that they have ADD. Of the 4, 3 no longer need to take medication. They learned other coping mechanisms to help them focus. The 4th didn't take medication, but well...he probably still needed some kind of medical intervention IMO.
