I'm also from 2021! Sorry we are in this boat together. I do take adderall now, although it's technically for my post-concussion syndrome. I was a little hesitant to try it, because it's a controlled substance and I was afraid it would increase my anxiety and mess up my sleep. Instead, my anxiety is actually decreased. And I cannot even explain how amazing it has been for focus/concentration, energy and motivation. I could cry just thinking about how I was before and how much I am able to do now. I can read! I can walk 4 miles! I can write! I can keep my calendars and schedules organized! I don't take naps. I can cook dinner for my family. Of course some symptoms are still there, and probably always will be. I do have memory issues still and I may never be back to the exercise/work/socializing routine from pre-Covid. But I do feel like adderall has given me my life back. Good luck!!

Thank you. I have hypersomnia and my doctor mentioned giving me something to help…
I am going to follow up and request adderall. I took it years ago for my hypersomnia.
