Not sure who I am anymore...

Well I have known that I need to quit for a while now. Adderall has made me a very emotionless person and made me feel like I have no sympathy. I have to force myself to have hobbies and I never do anything I less I think it will benefit me. It's as if someone flipped off my "give a shit" switch up there in my brain! I need to be a better person for my family and friends.

I want to quit but I'm worried. I am a senior in high school and its my final month. There's a lot of stuff to do and I have to get up early every morning for school. I have a job as well and im working 20 hrs a week on top of school. I'm also worried that if I quit I'll suffer through some sort of major depression. I feel like it will be hard to get through daily tasks like before I started.

Any advise ? :(

What's up Naterdogg,

I can relate to everything you just said. I even thought that I would suffer from a major depression also, and I found out that having a positive outlook kept me from having hardly any depression at all. I quit four and a half months ago and I'm also a senior in high school. My life has improved so much since quitting, it's pretty amazing. I will say though, I still have a lot of trouble trying to focus in school and getting stuff done that doesn't really interest me... and I used to be a straight A student before I ever took addy. So you may need to wait to quit until after your finals. But I would say that the day of your last final should be the last day of taking adderall. You'll need time to recover. You can probably get through your job but I'd recommend asking to take a month off or so to give yourself time to get through the worst of recovery.

Good luck, you can do it!
