AlwaysAwesome Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Even after this long, I am having a really hard time. In the last few weeks, I have been struggling to get motivated to do anything. I am tired, sluggish, starving, and just plain miserable. I need to get my sh*t together, but I am having trouble motivating myself to do anything positive. I have gained back almost all of the weight I lost. I know that it will get better, but I am just junk right now. Not trying to bring anyone down, but I promised to be honest so that recovery was not sugar coated. So, there you go... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlwaysAwesome, on the bright side we are both now TV stars You will be on an AMC show and im in a commercial... Seriously I think what you are going through is totally normal at 13 months. I couldnt even get out of bed at the time period of my recovery. I think you know well...that this how it goes unfortunately..Im at 4 years and 9 months and i still get PAWS ... adderall recovery is looong. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerokewl Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Always I totally understand. I want to write something meaningful here but I am on a deadline. I listen to these motivational youtubes endlessly to keep me fighting kinda cheesy but it shuts down a lot of the negative crap in my head. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayjay Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 I can so relate to how you're feeling, AlwaysAwesome. I'm close to a year of being Adderall free and lately I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. I have a mountain of yoga pants and oversized t-shirts to clean and fold (I'm too big to fit into anything else) and have zero energy to get my daughter ready for back-to-school. Just know you're not bringing anyone down. I appreciate your honesty. We're not alone in our struggle but you know what we are? We are not depending on Adderall to get by. We're feeling it all. In my opinion, a day of no motivation is better than an Adderall amped day of crazy. xoxo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAwesome Posted August 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Thanks everybody! I appreciate the support. The movie I was in comes out in April, 2016. I missed the season finale of Halt and Catch Fire, so I didn't get to see if I made the cut. Oops... Greg, we are SUPER STARS!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAwesome Posted March 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Well, I was looking for the "real" quit post and this is the best I can find. Maybe we should start a topic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duffman Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Wtf.. 4 years and 9 months and still getting PAWS from Adderall? How is that possible? Edit: Not calling you a liar, just shocked that it may require 5+ yrs to recover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
