What to expect when coming off 6-year high dose use of Adderall


2014Recovery

Recommended Posts

I have been high doses Adderall for 6 years and i really want to come off them but have never been able to achieve it. I actually need them to balance out my brain chemistry to feel normal and NOT be in excrutiating discomfort.  I was wondering if anyone knows of any kind of approximate timeframe of what to expect week by week with the withdrawal process and restoring bio-chemistry? I think if i have some sort of guide to go by it would decrease my fear and help me push through the tough times.

Welcome to the forum! Recovery time varies from person to person. Read the following article as a starting point http://quittingadderall.com/how-to-quit-adderall/.   Some people use welbutrin, an anti-depressant, too help with the transition.  Recalibrating brain chemistry takes a long time.  The best strategy is to focus on self-care (eat well, sleepwell, fitness etc).   Keep close  to this site and educate yourself.
