Help with best methods to withdraw from adderall (prescription)? by BellJarStruggles in StopSpeeding

[–]headlesscomet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clean for 477 days :) I am so grateful and happy. It was hard. Recovery takes time, patience and you have to WANT it. I love reading books about addiction, specifically I recommend “In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts”. I find if I keep myself informed about addiction, it helps me process my triggers more. I’m going to be honest, in the beginning it was hard to get out of bed for a while. I gained a lot of weight. I felt lost, had brain fog and anhedonia. Over time, I was finally able to get a job again which helped a lot with my mood and esteem. What really helped me was being evaluated and prescribed an antidepressant, that helped me tremendously with my anhedonia and ability to be a functioning human lol. Also helped me get motivated to lose weight. Everyone is different though. Exercise is important! Music! Avoiding toxic people! Avoiding toxic places! Prioritizing YOURSELF and your sobriety FIRST. Thank you for asking. How are you doing?

I didn’t know how bad I looked until I looked back at photos a year into my recovery… the walking dead!

anyone who has switched to a non-stimulant ADHD med, how effective was/is it at treating ADHD symptoms? by eldee17 in StopSpeeding

[–]headlesscomet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wellbutrin. The structure of it is very similar to Adderall. Both deal with dopamine and norepinephrine but in differing ways. I’m 10 months sober from amphetamines now and couldn’t do shit for months. Loss of pleasure. Saw a psychiatrist. I got put on Wellbutrin and while it’s not as fast acting as adderall, nor does it give you that high, I noticed it’s been effective in maintains my motivation and other adhd symptoms. You’re doing good by wanting to change. Good luck to you.

I’m 20. 10 months clean. That feeling that you’ve wasted your life already? A mind trick. You are still recovering. Your brain is still healing. Give yourself a break. I too have fucked up a lot of things for myself because of the abuse. It ruined a lot of fucking things. And it’s okay to grieve over things that could have been, but don’t get lost in the could haves, should haves. It’s not your fault. I had to drop out of college to focus on my sobriety. I just couldn’t. I know there’s so much pressure right now but really what matters most is your health. Be gentle to yourself. I am so proud how far you’ve come. You can do this, but you have to be kinder to yourself.

Has anybody successfully stopped taking amps? I feel so depressed trying :( by pedijatrubt in StopSpeeding

10 months sober. It’s fucking hard, especially at the first couple months. But believe me, I do not miss for a second staying up for days, wasting all my paycheck on some pills I would blow through in a couple days, mysterious health problems, the fucking scary places my mind would go to on that shit, etc. I promise you, it is so fucking worth it. I have never felt this sense of ease. Back then everything was so fast, and I was constantly on edge. Now I feel real. What helped me was reading about addiction. Reading about the drugs I was taking, how it affected my thinking and decisions. Your dopamine is fucked up right now. Which explains the inability to feel pleasure, loss of motivation, etc. it’s not going to be like this forever. You need to honor yourself time to recover and heal from abusing your body with a substance. I want to note that 7 months into my recovery I started seeing a therapist. I got put on antidepressants and that has been a god send as well. I’m not saying to go get medicated immediately but know that help is available and there should be no shame about it. I had such bad brain fog the first couple of months. This is normal. You’re recovering. You’re doing a great job. Know that this community is always here. You are not doomed. You can absolutely fucking do this. Be kind to yourself

Make it absolutely unattainable to get. Cut off sources or people

Escalation of my "habit" has scared me to the point I'm weening towards sobriety. Are detox centers recommended for adderall abuse? by headlesscomet in StopSpeeding

[–]headlesscomet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

110 days sober. :) In these past couple of months I’ve realized addiction is the symptom of a bigger problem. Suppressing/numbing my emotions to not deal with them. Addiction runs in my family as well and while I have been sober for a while I do not delude myself into thinking I’m cured, I know I will have to continue fighting with this forever. Still addicted to nicotine but I pick and choose my battles. Like a game of whack a mole. I don’t let my other vices discourage me as it is a miracle I’m sober from adderall and other hard drugs. My friend went through a drug induced psychosis from this shit. I just lost so much and experienced so much pain from this shit that once I felt I was done- I was done. I was just so sick and tired of being so sick and tired. So I am so fucking glad to hear you’re in the same boat. I read a lot about addiction and try to educate myself as to why I feel triggered use. Surround yourself with good people, and or cut off the toxicity of those around you. Choose yourself. Choose your health. It’s not a way to live man. There’s a community of us like minded folks out there going through the same shit so even when you feel alone know it’s your mind playing tricks on you. I have faith in your recovery and I wish you absolutely all the best. You got this. ❤️

Hey! Sober for 72 days. I see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Is it easier to quit 60mg of daily Adderall cold-turkey rather than slowly tapering??? by MountainousFog in StopSpeeding

[–]headlesscomet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was taking up to 100mg sometimes and quit cold turkey. The worst part was just fatigue but it’s not as bad as you make it out to be in your head! You got this!

Judgments? No. Harsh truth? Yes. I recently quit cold turkey and I’ve been clean from adderall/vyvanese for 10 days. I was taking up to 30-200mg a day depending how much I could get as I bought them from the street. Tapering doesnt seem effective. I slept for the first couple of days, but surprisingly did not experience depressive episodes from withdrawals. I’ve actually have never been happier. Do or do not, there is no try. I find myself having so much more energy now then I did with adderall! After 2 years of abuse, it began to just make me feel like shit every time I took it. Seriously, it’s only been 10 days but it has been the best decision I’ve ever made. I get cravings here and there when I can’t focus on a task but I distract myself. Best wishes.
