I feel your pain. I suffered with anxiety for most of my life until I started taking Effexor XR. It’s the only non-benzo medication I’ve ever taken that helps me control the anxiety. You should ask your doc about it.
As for the post-adderall effects, it should have decreased after about 3-5 days of not taking it. Since you’re a healthy person, it shouldn’t take longer to clear out your system. Is it worse with exercise or increased stress? If not, I’d give it some time to resolve. If it does worsen with elevated blood pressure or heart rate, I’d definitely see your doctor as soon as you can.
