Day 13 Update

[OnSomething]

Tomorrow will be 2 weeks clean from Adderall! I went from 140mg a day to nothing and it honestly felt like I was waking up from a coma. By day 8 I actually felt a moment of HOPE and excitement for my future for the first time since before my addiction. I am obviously still early in my recovery but I think it'd be good for people who visit this site to see that recovery doesn't have to be excruciatingly painful. Every time I had tried to quit it was, but this time is different because I let my love for Adderall die first. Anyways, being an Adderall addict is no way to live and I pray for everyone who is on edge of quitting! If anyone has advice for finishing up my first month that'd be great :')

yea- 140mg a day to nothing is quite a shock to the system! the first month will always feel the slowest. it's like going 100 mph into a 25 zone suddenly. it's gonna feel even slower than 25 should feel. i'm also convinced that amphetamine itself warps your perception of time.

keep on keeping on!

Yep.  Couldn't agree more.  I've lost entire days that I couldn't account for.

Doesn't that just creep you out? I feel like there are chunks of my life missing and frankly I don't really want to know what I was doing with that time. I'm thankful for a sober mind now!
