Thanks for your support.. Last time I was off adderall I was a highschool kid,,, I still haven't really begun an "adult life" as myself yet.. can't wait to see what it brings lol.

I guess I will just have to make sure I work out 7 days a week and not take rest times for a while.. It's going to be tough. Today is day 1 of me not taking adderall.. the hunger isn't that bad because i withered it down. I feel like its still in my system since theres some mild level of anxiety..

thanks for the input.. I think we differ in terms of drive. not necessarily because of age, but because I am in general hornier than 99% of guys.. (and that's without adderall usage).. so amphetamine took an already bad habit and just put it on overdrive.. But I think your explanation definately goes for why I tend to masturbate over 6 times a day. I am finding myself having to go to the bathroom at work.. (pretty serious)... it's stuff like this that made me come to the realization that I have problems and that adderall usage cannot be healthy. As this is not a normal. Having trouble with females is only a consequence of a root problem. aka.. a chemical imbalance

I have always been ADHD and diagnosed with it since the age of 10. Long story short. I have been on Adderall the past 2 years; Went from making $11.25 an hour to $35 an hour. Made me advance in my career really efficiently to say the least. The side effect: I am in a state of depression. I am a straight 24 year old male and I haven't had sex or a girlfriend in 2 years. I have a very high IQ, am extremely athletic, good looking, and have plenty of male friends. I am extremely outgoing and confident. Unfortunately, due to Adderalls tendency to overstimulate the "logical" side of the brain it has stopped me from building connections with females. I talk and I'll be thinking of the spreading of Ideas and concepts. Unfortunately, that's not the type of talk that turns women on, and you can see how that was an obstacle to my sex life. It would also make me overthink and question myself making me lose my sexual confidence.I would micro-manage every part of the conversation. This would obviously make female counterparts feel uncomfortable, as I would come off as hesitant and "creepy." Furthermore, I have been hypersexual. Adderal mixed with wellbutrin was an awful combination and I would find myself masturbating over 7 times a day. This would deplete my dopamine levels and as a result exacerbate my anxiety making it even harder to develop relationships with the opposite sex. I have been withering down Adderal to a mere 20mg a day (XR). The change did successfully allow me to feel a range of emotions better. However, I am still "creepy." I need to get rid of amphetamines all together. I was originally prescribed 60 mg XR. My main fear from quitting Adderal is both losing my job and gaining weight. I fitness model so my bodyfat % is extremely important to me. Tomorrow will be the first day I quit cold turkey. I am looking forward to it. Sometimes on days I don't take it, I get this happiness that I used to get when talking to a girl I like. It's like I laugh and all of a sudden not micro-managing my conversation. I would trade anything to be able to get that feeling again. I want to be human. Even my colleagues at work will overlook my worsened performance if I get my real personality back.
