How can you get a doctor to prescribe you adderol?
A doctor -- usually a psychiatrist -- will prescribe Adderall if he diagnoses you as ADD/ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder/Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder). One of the major symptoms of these disorders is an inability to focus and/or listen. That's why it is so often prescribed to underachieving students. However, these disorders aren't just for kids. In other words, the problem doesn't end when you reach the age of 18. Helping professionals have finally realized and appreciated the large number of adults who age with this problem. Adderall is also now being used to treat "Treatment-Resistant" depression. So to answer your question, research the top 10 symptoms of ADD/ADHD and if you relate to them, tell your doctor!

What is ADD and how is it different from ADHD?
ADHD has been named differently over time. In the early 1970s, it was known as hyperkinesis (from the Latin word for "superactive"). In the 1980s, it was called Attention Deficit Disorder, or ADD. The term ADD (without the symptom of hyperactivity in the title) was used because hyperactivity is often, but not always, found with the disorder. Children who have the disorder without hyperactivity still struggle with impulsivity and inattention, but have more normal activity levels. However, since most people with ADHD have the symptom of hyperactivity, in 1987 the official name changed to and remains ADHD. There are varying types of ADHD. Children with ADD/ADHD can have difficulties at home, at school, and in relationships with friends and other children their age. ADD/ADHD has also been shown to have long-term adverse effects on school performance, career or job success, and social-emotional development. Because children with ADD/ADHD are not able to sit still and pay attention in school, they may have disciplinary problems, and they can be viewed as troublemakers by teachers and other students. They experience peer rejection and show a broad range of disruptive behaviors. Their academic and social problems can have far-reaching and long-term effects. These children have higher injury rates. As they grow older, children with untreated ADD/ADHD, in combination with conduct disorders, are at risk for drug abuse, antisocial behavior, and injuries of all sorts. Up to 70% of children diagnosed with ADD/ADHD will continue to have symptoms into adulthood. [The ADD information above is based on source material from the National Institute on Mental Health entitled "Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) - Questions and Answers," published in March 2000.]
