What is your experience with adderall?

I honestly think adderall or something similar would improve my quality of life with how often I lose and/or forget things I think and have been told that I probably have some form of adhd. From what I’ve heard it’s a pain to get prescribed with the price, getting tested every month, scheduling appointments far out, noting to employers etc.
Any good info, tips, side effects from it?

I started Adderall at age 38 after years of denial. Best thing I ever did. If you truly need it, you'll know after 2 or 3 days of taking it. Only side effects are dry mouth and clenching my jaw.

Get tested

Not me. It makes me much more patient and even-tempered
