Adderall is a stimulant drug and used for treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and attention deficit disorder (ADD) in adults.

In your case first of all there is need of diagnosis through proper history and mental status examination by a psychiatrist in person. After that if it is indicated adderall can be prescribed. Adderall is good medicine for ADD. However it is strict prescription drug. When it is taken without doctor's supervision chances of abuse is high. It is better to take it under doctor's guidance.

You may get regular adderall after consulting psychiatrist.
