Bubbagump99 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Cut my dosage by 10mg, so I'm currently at 20mg for 14 days- and then 15 etc. so far I do have some brain fog, and tired, but emotionally I feel pretty good. Taking vitamins and eating really heathy I think has helped a lot. cut out carbs and sugar. I feel optimistic, yet it's scary to know I'll eventually lose this 'high' I feel when I take these pills. Didn't think going from 30 to 20mg would be a huge difference, but I could definitely feel the difference. But so far I think I'm doing pretty good..starting to understand why they tell addicts in recovery it's day by day.. 😔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbagump99 Posted January 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Hey guys, I feel good today. when I stop and think about how I feel, I can feel the brain fog more.. But just working at work now as usual.. I'm ok. feeling jumping down to 15 this sat instead of next, but I don't wanna shock my stupid brain more then what's in store for it. I've been pretty happy these past few times. I'm worried though that once I hit 10 and 5 mg, I'm not gonna be so happy tho lol :/ I mean, 20mg is still a good amount to have in you....u know?

AlwaysAwesome Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Yeah. But, you are doing the taper, so follow docs advice and don't jump too soon. Glad you are doing well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbagump99 Posted January 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 The doc made it seem like she was surprised like I felt like I had to taper.. If I never 'abused' it and always only took my prescribed dosage, (which I did) will my withdrawals be easier? I mean, as opposed to someone who abused it and took more then prescribed??

Adderallics Anonymous Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Yeah, from my experience people that have taken adderall (especially on this forum) know a lot more about it than the doctors who prescribe it. And of course it will be somewhat easier because you didnt abuse it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAwesome Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I disagree. I had a terrible time quitting. The emotional pull is just as strong for me as I have read it to be with others who abused it. I think, even people without "addictive personalities" are slaves to this drug. It is the great equalizer, in misery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
