Totally. I remember this feeling. I was always racing against the clock because anxiety about "how long do I have before this wears off and I start to feel like shit again.....???" was always racing through my mind.
Hi Andi, are you new to the forum? are you struggling with the decision to quit? are you looking for support?
We're here.
SO TRUE!

That is really, really awesome to hear! Congrats to hitting nearly 60 days. That's really something to be proud of!Day 57 and my life is dramatically different than it was before I quit. I am doing well and I will post a more detailed post on what my journey has been like for me when I get some time to do so.
I encourage anyone struggling to quit to employ the cold turkey method and cut off all resources for the most effective way to get off. Your life will improve tremendously I promise.
Cold turkey and cutting off your supplier are a tried and true formula here. And are one more example of how that is the case.

Insomnia And anger

Wow. Just wow. Some careful politics need to be exercised here. Maybe your career as a TV stunt man will take off.
I def feel less paranoia in this job. Whether they like me or not they are stuck with me for awhile since I signed a contract. Also my new department is much less political than last summer..but I'm still observing the way things work...

Gawd are they still in that Dome!
They left the dome for a little bit and then 5he show got really bad, so now they are back in the dome which will hopefully make it more interesting,

The project has had delays from the get go. I keep asking for extensions and getting denied. Lame but getting it done. Kinda wish they would just move the launch. After labor day has a nice ring to it. These last minute add on's and rush jobs are why I got so involved with adderall in the 1st place. I get pretty defensive at the end of project. Sleep, diet and exercise are priorities.
im going to join you on the annoyed at work wagon.
The girl who is supposed to train me to take on a report is completely impatient and refuses to repeat anything twice and some of it is very complicated excel stuff that needs some clarification. What the hell is her problem?????
This is week 3 for me, and this is the last thing i was expecting to experience so early.

edit - message me if you are curious! And ill tell you which company..just didnt want to write it on public forum..

Why do I keep watching under the dome, it's an awful show

Day 60. Holy shit.
keep it up!!

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...
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.

That feeling you get when a project manager emails you at 11:30PM asking you to have something done by 8 AM and you just dont.
Z is the project almost over? will you have to continue working with her? 11:30pm is really late to be messaging you. she sounds chaotic.

Shot the commercial today. Was nervous but It was fun! Crew said I did a good job. Its airing in 1700 stores on the TV displays and also online and other places...but dont know anymore details like when
edit - for some reason im so paranoid about saying the brand so i wont to be careful..but i think a lot of you know which one it is...

From what I've seen bad managers are way too uninvolved or way too involved

Ugh!!!

"Bitch if you think I'm missing Walking Dead cuz of your nonsense." - Me to Project Manager
Dang -- totally unreasonable expectation from your manager. The entire world is watching walking dead on Sunday's.

Im sorry i deleted the posts of above because i was panicking like a nut....long story short..Im shooting a commercial tomorrow for a big brand.
Ive gone over the script like 10 to 15 times. Ive studied this video as an example of a good job someone did on a commercial (that guy is really good) i will do the best i can do. The company is on par with Coca Cola, McDonalds and Walmart so im really stessed but i think I will get through it. I will definitely be popping xanax to get through it. And they promised i will have a script coach to help me with my lines. wish me luck my friends.
Once its over I will add to my bucket list and cross it off..

Just an update..
Today is my first day back in school and I've successfully managed to study my Organic Chem for 5 hours straight
That's the longest I have ever studied anything stimulant free in over 7 years
I HAD THE BIGGEST URGE SINCE QUITTING TO CALL MY DOCTOR AND GET A SCRIPT BUT I RESISTED!!!
Most of the information has seemed to actually stick..
Needless to say I am super proud of myself!
On a side note...
My heart feels great, I am running 6+ miles almost every day
WOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great job!! I hope the fact that you did orgo for 5 hours straight gives you that confiedence that you DONT need adderall for anythign. Take the next step and cut off your doctor supplier/tell him you developed a problem with it and to not prescribe it to you anymore. Thats really KEY.

Its crazy how people say adderall makes you more focused. When i was taking adderall I was focused maybe in the beginning ..but once that honeymoon period ended...I started become completely focused on tangential things, sporadic things, any thoughts that crossed my mind...take for example, the stock market is doing horrible right now..i would probably waste hours doing a deep dive on why the market crashing and spend time investigating something that was completely tangential instead of looking for a job or something or more importantly quitting a drug that was destroying my life... my mind was on information overload 24/7...because i was too busy trying to absorb so many words and ideas...and most of it was very tangential...but it gave me this stupid invincible feeling of being a walking encyclopedia of knowledge or a super creative being...even though that was just in my head---because the dopamine in my brain was swirling around at unnatural levels..
So to answer your question more -- they would find tons of half written ideas on scraps of paper, and someone suffering from constant "information overload" but thinking they were invincible and riding high
