That's interesting to hear about ADHD causing mood
swings/anger/irritability and the stimulants doing
away with them. Is that a common trait of the illness
For me, absolutely not.
The stimulants made me crankier and more high-strung.
However, sometimes it was a net improvement in my mood because I was getting my stuff done and therefore my stress level was lowered.
I use modafinil now which is less effective for the ADHD but also makes me less cranky.
