Day 1...no adderall -A

thank you all who replied! i ended up taking my second to last pill yesterday for work because i felt totally helpless, totally dead and useless, n hadn't planned at all so i decided to just take it and save my last one for my double shift today. somehow miraculously though i worked a full 16 hrs today and running on only 3 hrs of sleep and i didn't take it! I was going to save it for halfway through but just kind of kept putting it off and i made it through the whole day and was pretty well functioning (considering the circumstances anyway...). I think a minor miracle occurred. i hope i never have to take that last pill. so, day one down

Hello everyone I'm new. This is my first post and this is also my first day without adderall in my journey to quit it forever. I have a lot of worries about the coming weeks and months but my main concern right now is how this is going to impact me at my job. Having gone short periods before I know what it's going to be like (at least at first). I know I'm going to be next to useless at work. I'm afraid I'm going to get in trouble at my job, or get called out or questioned, or that coworkers will get annoyed with me or that they will question what the hell is going on with me or that I'll maybe even get fired... help!? No one I work with knows I take adderall. I'm a recent college grad, I'm the youngest person at my job, and I've only been at it for 4 months. I don't feel comfortable at all sharing with my coworkers that I take adderall (even though I technically am diagnosed with ADHD and am prescribed it) and I certainly don't feel comfortable explaining to them that I am quitting it. I don't feel comfortable telling my boss either. I don't know what to do. I am going to just try and sleep all day until work and go to bed right after work, and I suppose drink a ton of coffee but I just don't think that will be enough... Does anyone have any suggestions or any personal experiences with this they can relate? I'm nervous and dreading it... Thanks -A
