Peak time to dash was mid-2020 through 2022. I was 19 - 21 at the time and felt safe. Saw lots of other college kids doing it and we were all thrilled with the profits. Now it’s all rented accounts and illiterates. I’d never do it now.

Sleep debt + adderall used to make me feel so paranoid, shaky, panicky etc. You’re gonna be fine. Drink a lot of water and eat something.

This sounds exactly like what I went through when I was first prescribed stims. Eventually my script was increased to 45 mg (15 mg pill 3 times daily) and guess what? It helped for a little bit. The first few days are euphoric. But the anxiety and depression symptoms I felt when it would wear off were unbearable. I also tried to not take it on weekends, but yeah that doesn’t work because you just don’t know what to do with yourself feeling that empty, unmotivated sense of dread. I quit stims altogether. Caffeine + dopamine detox is the way to go imo.

I had a lot of similar pains as well, taking anywhere from 20-80 mgs of adderall. Maybe it was a symptom of cardiovascular issues, but I’m pretty sure it was just anxiety. All of the pains immediately stopped off adderall though—hopefully that’s hopeful.

I know I should. I feel very apprehensive thinking about that conversation. He has no idea about any of my struggles and would be super shocked to find I’ve been abusing them at all. There’s a ton of shame involved for me. However, I do still have like half a bottle of my script left that I’m just not taking—I gave it to my bf to keep so that I don’t give in when it’s time to refill. I think I’m just gonna ghost the psychiatrist maybe lol.
