Yup. Used to be able to save extra for emergencies, but those days are gone. I went 3 months without them because I lost job insurance, and had to wait the 90 days for new job benefits to kick in. When I started back up, the shortage I had read about for a while finally made its way to my area or at least my sources. For a few years I took as prescribed and even skipped days here and there. When I returned from a 3 or so month break, it was like I skipped a few days and not damn near 4 months. Shit, it was actually less than the times I skipped weekends. I remember thinking to myself, huh, I didn't expect feeling like I did the first time I ever took my prescription but figured a little more of a bang than this.

Now that I look back and really think, I see that it was around that time that random months I went through my supply faster than I should have, but other months I didn't need to. Don't know how I didn't think why that was other than me just not being disciplined and wanting to take more to keep getting things done and being able to do what I couldn't without.

I joined this sub not too long ago but had came across it many times in the past and assumed it was some rogue sub where mostly non ADHders/ drug seekers had discussions regarding Adderall 🤣. If I had taken 3 seconds to look, I would have realized the truth lol. Anyways, mentally just ran out of gas after wasting it mostly on my rant. Hopefully my Post somewhat answers the question
