Oh my god you're a ******* moron. If you have no medical training keep,your ******* mouth shut you stupid *****. Many people who need Adderall take it without any problems. Just because your useless addict friend abused it doesn't make it bad. Stfu.
Thank you for your words of advice. It helps to feel less alone and less afraid. I'm on Day Two and I did cut back yesterday. We'll see how it goes today. I don't want to end up back in a rehab, or the hospital detox. So I pray I can do this on my own, and with everyone's advice. It is amazing to me that a doctor who specializes in addiction would put me on adderall. What is the matter with these doctors? How did he imagine I would use it, since he knew I'm an addict? That I would use it properly? HAH! But now it's not so funny. I pray I make it through this.
I was just wondering what is Adderall?? I have heard from my teenagers that they sell it at school..big suprise...I have taken many things but not that although i have heard of it.What is it used for typically?
I drink alcohol as well...just wanted to add that alcohol is a depressent, we know that so when things are already low in my life, it is one of the worst things for me to overindulge in...sends me down and makes me feel worseif i drink too much...i am not a heavy drinker but the anxiety during quitting i noticed i was using alcohol a bit to curb the anxiety..in turn can caused more probems as i felt depressed the next day.....that is for me anyway and everyone is different
Withdrawal from adderall would be much like that of cocaine..not alot of physical symptoms like narcotis..but mental wds..depression and anxiety and such...if you have a doctor to talk with about it perhaps he can prescribe something to help you cope with quitting...a friend quit amphetamines and she had a sleep med, and anti-dep, and an anti-anxiety med prescribed for detox which they told her was not life threatening to cold turkey so she did...she then got off of the ant-anxiety med but she still takes the AD and the sleep med as needed...depression can be the worst part of wd...keep posting and make a plan
your on addy and suboxone? Yikes. Double whammy. You need to talk with your Dr and get plan in place fast. You gotta want it man, you gotta want to live life and be free or you never will. It took me a long time to learn it.
I will say this....Adderall is one nasty drug. It HAS it's purposes, but for those who aren't taking it for those reasons, it can be dicey at best. I no longer have a particular friend in my life due to the psychosis this drug caused her. If a doc has you on it, you'd better talk to him/her before doing anything with it.
Welcome...I don't know about adderall however I do believe you can taper from it. Just wait and someone will be along that can answer you better than I. I know there are dangers in some meds so wait to hear or better yet call your dr in the a.m. and ask what is the safest way to do this.
Good luck,
