I am taking adderall reg 5mg from time to time and sometimes I become irritable. I also take adderall XR 10mg and Wellbutrin 200 in am and 200 in pm...Has anyone else experienced this from meds, or should I be looking at something else? I can't decide or figure out whether it is environment, situations, hormones etc. or meds...as it has just recently shown up again...

" I was taking the Adderall 20mg XR and I was totally irritable! Oh my god unbearable sometimes. My PhD decided I had a bit of a mood disorder, not bi-polar or anything and not depressed some other name but he put me on Lamictal and then gave me the 15mg instant release of Adderall and I take one of those in the morning and one in the afternoon and I'm SO much better now! Hope I helped! "
