I was wondering th same thing. I was born without a thyroid completely. I am overweight and extremely tired all the time even tho my doctor says all my levels are fine. I was looking into adderall and was wondering if that would help with my sleepiness and my problems losing weight. Ive tried every diet imaginable and nothing seems to be working. I have a friend who lost 30 lbs  in 6 months from adderall, and it was specifically prescribed to her for that reason. So should I ask my doctor?
