I think it's a somewhat common side effect that usually goes away. I also get tension-like headaches from time to time, but I've always been like that.
Adhering to the routine of meds really helps, but ya know lol. I'd just mention the side effect and obviously look into it if it gets worse. I only had a few days of that at first with focalin, I imagine Adderall would be similar.
That's good to hear. So far I've been pretty much taking them like clockwork at the same time every day. But my work schedule helped a lot with that, we'll see how my first medicated weekend goes.
