jh123 Posted Thursday at 02:14 AM Report Share Posted Thursday at 02:14 AM Started adderall 10 years ago. For the last 2 years, 90mg a day. Prior to that, 30mg a day. Starting tomorrow I am returning to 30mg a day for a few months, then hopefully weaning off more. What kind of recovery timeline should I anticipate? Since i'm not cutting cold turkey, will I be closer to okay in terms of motivation etc a month from now? For the next 30 days my schedule is very light, but next month I will need to be working 12 hours shifts Monday- Saturday. I am very worried my personality, lifestyle, and even ability to work out will be next to nothing on the lower dose. Knowing what to expect would be very helpful Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric Posted Thursday at 03:22 AM Report Share Posted Thursday at 03:22 AM I'm going day 1 tomorrow!!. I've been on it for last 11 years. Last year I was off for 8 months but then got back on them thinking that maybe "I could just take 1", but of course that was bs. I've never been able to taper because I feel like crap if I take like less than 60mg a day. For reference I take anywhere between 60-100mg on my binge cycles....I hate it! I also drink excessive amounts of alcohol in the evenings when on it... So I don't have a direct answer on your tapering down recovery timeline. But I wanna motivate you to consider just taking maybe 30mg the next 2 days and then going cold turkey over the weekend and see how you feel and hopefully just get that fight in you to stay off permanently...If your gonna be working crazy hours next month then make this month count. Eat good foods and break a sweat walking or something. Sending good vibes your way...I haven't been on this site in months but I log on and saw your post and mainly just wanted to let you know that your not on your own. GOOD LUCK!!!
