Q: Adderall, Ed's And Depression Concern

~*okay so I only recently started taking adderall about 2 weeks ago...It has greatly greatly surpressed my appetite and I am very concerned...A lil background info is needed for this to make sense...I was diagnosed with an eating disorder...Have gotten help and have been relatively healthy minus a huge weight gain, however my obsession with weight never stopped and I feel horrible about myself now for gaining 50 pounds after I stopped the dangerous behaviors. I am in college now on adderall 30 mg xr...I am concerned this not eating could lead me to old behaviors, but I also dont wanna stop taking it bc I like not being hungry and want to lose weight again...If I take it until I lose a good chunk of my weight and then stop will I gain it back like I did before? That is my biggest concern I think..Id rather not take it and lose weight in a healthy way then take it and get fat again after...Also on adderall I feel tired...I just wanna b alone sorta depressed and I just wanna lay in bed all day but like I cant bc im not able to sleep... And I fight with my rents a lot too...And im feeling more anxiety then normal...And am extremely anti social..Tho I leave for school again in like 2 days does this make sense? Or am I experiencing something noone else is? Ive only been on it for like 2 weeks so I dont get why I feel so down...I also just had a surgery so im sure taht could be part of it but any help with all of these questions would be great...Especially the getting fat after adderall thing...Thanks anyone who read this*~
