[|Human|] I am a 46 yr old female recently diagnosed add (my son and my 2 siblings have diagnosed add). My dr Rx d Adderall 20mg twice a day. The first few days I had a headache and felt like I had too much caffeine. I don t notice any other changes after two weeks and I have gained 2 pounds! Does this mean I don t have ADD?
[|AI|]  No, it doesn't mean that you don't have Added. Adderall usually causes weight loss. However, the side effect (or lack of it) has nothing to do with the diagnosis. Even response to treatment is not the way to diagnose a clinical condition. In my opinion, the issue for you should be whether you see any benefit in the symptoms that led you to seek consultation. You should feel free to discuss this with your psychiatrist. I hope this answers your question.
