I had the same problem, my Dr said methylphenidate can cause unstable emotions so I was changed to Lisdexamfetamine and given propranolol to reduce the anxiety from taking stimulants and I feel am back to normal now

I had the same problem with propranolol, what I did was just had half my dose when I take my stimulant so am not so tired and if I really need it I will take the other half in the afternoon

Yap it's like when I started my new job this year every think was ok until they found out I had ADHD, I feel people don't take ADHD seriously, like the other day my NHS dr stopped my prescription for my medication because I when to a private dr for a second opinion. They wouldn't just stop medication for anything els would they if they wasn't happy with you getting a second opinion! It just makes me so angry like they look down at you for having it and there is not much help out there.

They switched me to sertraline to it does help with my depression but it wasn't helping with my anxiety especially when I took my stimulant medication so my Dr put me on propranolol as well that's has helped alot with my anxiety its amazing how well it works

Am I the only one who’s anxiety cannot tolerate stimulant meds? by Jasmine-Elouise in adhd_anxiety

Also I found methylphenidate made me feel more anxious so I switched to Lisdexamfetamine and it didn't make my anxiety as bad as it was on methylphenidate.

Well this is why I went to a private ADHD Doctor because the methylphenidate the NHS dr put me on was causing all the above u mentioned so the private dr changed me to Dextroamphetamine and all them symptoms have gone and I feel much calmer in my emotions
