Talk to your doctor. There are many other ADHD medication’s that are just as good as Adderall. I’ve been on Adderall since I was 14 but recently had to switch to Vyvanse. It works just as well, if not better IMO. Vyvanse is just one of many other types of ADHD meds. Hope this is helpful. 🤞🏻

I had to get like a prior authorization because of my insurance, other than that minor inconvenience no. However, you said you were a senior in high school, so I’m assuming you’re on your parents insurance? You should be okay. There are other ones other than Vyvanse. I would just express your concerns openly and honestly with your prescriber. Perhaps look inquire about all your option? I know they have come out with a few new kinds too.

Then you could always go back to Adderall once the shortage fixes itself hopefully. However, I don’t think I could function with nothing. It’s difficult, especially depending on how severe your ADHD is.

I haven’t been able to get Adderall for….. idk, over 6 months at least, and it’s honestly been really rough. I was trying Ritalin for a while, which was better than nothing but not great. I’m not able to try vyvanse bc it interacts with one of my other meds, sadly, but I’m trying concerta starting tomorrow, and if that’s not good, my psychiatrist said I might be able to try a non-stimulant med, but we’re hoping maybe the concerta will be a good enough stopgap.

Another option would be to look into Saffron. It’s a natural remedy for ADHD. Studies have found it’s just as, if not more, effective than Adderall. I switched in October and haven’t had any issues.

I see that's this just isn't affecting my area. Yeah I didn't didn't have Adderall for over a month which isn't that bad. Look I into different meds if you can and suggest it to your parents. Or you can do what I didnt and lower the dosage and wait until they have your regular back in stock.
