yeah, weekends are definitely tough. there is a phenomenon known as "ritalin rebound" which is a worsing of symptoms when the drug wears off. this isn't as common with adderall but I definitely feel much more spacey saturday morning. i would think that its withdrawl to some degree or maybe i just forget how spacey i am without adderall. either way the best remedy is caffeine i think. it wakes you up gives you some concentration but since it is chemically unrelated to adderall it won't add to tolerance. This works fairly well for me. Obviously if you need to concentrate for a few hours take 1 pill but don't go back to your daily dose. again these are just hints ive found to be usefull but im not a doctor so talk it over with him.
