Adderall Dependency | ADHD Information

Is anyone else here really dependent on their adderall? I've became so that I can't live a normal life without it. Without it I'm so empty and sad, and have this feeling of misery that never goes away.

Strangely, none of this bothers me. I mean it sucks yes, but I'd rather have the adderall than stop it, and it works as a great anti depressant. I honestly think that without adderall, life wouldnt be worth living to me.

It makes me feel normal not high, and when I don't take it I feel horrible like I want to die and sleep. I'd rather be on adderall than dead. I take dexedrine for my adhd and I notice that as much as I hate taking it to have the zombie like slowness to it after I get into my fits where I like being hyper I stop it and after 5 days off of it I proceeded to walk around like I am in a war zone and I feel like smashing things and assaulting people... was on adderall and at 120 mg it didn't touch me [QUOTE=kozmik] By the way, Euphoria, Paul Erdos was taking 80mg twice a day in his best years as the world's most prolific mathematician. a friend asked him to stop for a month as a bet to see if he was addicted and Erdos accepted. After the month, the friend said "ok, you're not addicted, here's your money" and Erdos said "yeah, but...you just made mathematics lose 10 years of work. I sat every morning for that whole month and stared at the coffee pot and felt what a mediocre mind must feel."wikipedia has other famous users on record about their love and hate of Miss Addie (Miss Bennie for Jack Kerouac, since he wrote On The Road in two weeks straight no sleep inhaling benzedrine nonstop, and then went to the hospital with his lungs bleeding...since it's a bronchodilator, it dilated the blood vessels until it irritated them and burst them)

Yes I read about this on wikipedia during one of my euphoric speed bombs. If I took that much a day, I'd probably be a mathmeticaian too. Or a rockstar.I never experience a "zombie" feeling and I feel up and hyper when I take adderall. Not annoying-talketive hyper but hyper like I'm motivated and want to do something.im always worried that I'm dependent. makes me feel like I could find pleasure in reading my medical physiology book. Miss Addie is awesome in that respect and actually it has helped me with being a more responsible human being--actually getting sh*t done, responding to emails (something people know im famous for never doing) etc

overall good, but it's been losing effect lately, I dont wanna up the dose tho. Like I said I always

the withdrawal from speed is like waking up and thinking only in television static. there's nothing on. That's if you can wake up, I slept for 28 hours once. maybe that's what Erdos referred to. However I hear it goes away after two weeks or so. Coffee helps to do mundane tasks but don't try to hook up your new mesaboogie cabinets to a homemade pre-amplifier,or you might damage your guitar (your LPS, I have a Junior Special with p100 pickups...it has been discontinued) or do something requiring lots of complicated steps. Wait, what messages?i sent you one
private message...i didnt get it. Sorry. i guess you'll have to send it again.oh okif it doesnt work this time you can send it to my myspace. I have enough
room. i dont know why it didnt come?k i sent it to your myspaceok. lolyes i am.
Now go read your messages!ok. Got it! I responded to it.ok

oh yeah i have no adderalli hate the pic of myself on there. lol it was the only one i had on my new
computer because my friend emailed it to me.do u have a camera?yeah. but not on my computer. well i do. its just not set up yet.haha yeah were dependent on them to keep us concentrated and focused...isnt that dependency? lollol and do you know those ppl who are self proclaimed doctors? they think they know everything about sicknesses and disorders and stuff?

I just know everything about substances.
I havn't a damn clue about the body and stuff.
(only how substances affect it lol)lol. thats cuz you're all smart from staying up all the time! LOLhaha yeah
who would have thought sleep deprivation would have a positive affect on anyone?lolso what are you up to?not much. just chillin'im bored.
and theres nothing on tvi know. loli might put on an erotic filmlollol a 4 star one toolol! Then it must be good! But a 5 star would be better! (I'm still
getting the spamming thing! ) It won't stop! I'm hungry! I forgot to eat
dinner tonight. And of corse i can't find any good food! LOL!yeah the spamming thing is getting really annoying here
and go eat some cookie dough
mmm cookie doughcreepy!!!! I was just thinking the same thing!!!!! LOL! Are you reading my
mind?! I was like that with Prozac. But eventually i just weened off of it. Cause for a
while the docs. thought that the test that said adhd wass wrong and it was
just extreme depression. So i guess since i took such i high dose i became
dependant. But i was able to ween off of it. And it wasnt easy!i dont get why its such a horrible thing to be dependent on something as long as its not dangerous.I'm not sure. Adults are just weird like that. They probably think that if we're
dependant upon ADHD drugs then we'll do drugs too. But they're wrong!yeah im pretty sure adderall is safer than street methi know that it is. Adults are just weird like that!
