Let me start by saying that I am not a doctor and can only speak from my own experience.
I was not on Adderall but was on 30 mg of Ritalin for ADD along with high doses of Latuda and Effexor for my BP and experienced a prolonged manic phase that I just came out of 3 weeks ago when my Doctor changed up my meds and took me off of Ritalin.
I didn't even realize I was manic for so long until my Wife and Doctor pointed out the mess I was in (another story) with the poor decisions I had made during this phase.
My advice is to be careful with the Adderall and if you find yourself using it to boost your mood or to "Have a good day" or find yourself in a manic state to call your Doctor immediately. Another good idea is if you have a partner to have them keep an eye out for you moods and if you have elevated moods for an extended period of time to call your Doctor also.
