My buddy left a package of my Export A Gold cigarettes (the brand I smoked) in my car by accident last night. I drove to and from my house with them and matches in the car. Proud of my willpower it would have been easy to have just one.
cool, if i'm put in that situation, surely i will help myself with one or two sticks. i admired yourself discipline.

Sleep & Netflix are my only suggestions for early withdrawal. Thats how I got thru it, I did experience some vision blurriness but usually the morning after an epic bender.
yep, i totally agree. especially, sleep. and perullo is right, when the symptoms knocking your door, jit that phone and call your doc right away. Goodluck men, you can overcome this, i know.

You have to make mistakes and look like an idiot.
You have to try and fail and try again.
You have to run faster even though you’re out of breath.You have to be kind to people who have been cruel to you.You have to be accountable for your actions even when things go wrong.
this is all true, it pictures what i'm dealing now

hey men, quiting something you been used to it's not an easy task, but just think of this, after you quit, look to the end of the line, there is something there that you deserve most waiting for you. And at the end, you will say to yourself, "it's worth quitting".

hey, thanks for that fantastic article!

Yeah, don’t pressure yourself. Hang in there. Afterall those two months are no joke, that’s wonderfull. I am proud of you.

Hello!
I'm glad you found this site-- there's lots of support here-- and I think your lady is lucky to have you!
There's not much you can do unless and until she WANTS to quit. Does she want to?
To answer your question more directly, I have never heard of anyone coming back to moderation (or taking as prescribed, or even reasonable dosages) after crossing the line of abuse. After taking a dosage such as 150 mg/day, nothing less than that will feel like it works for her. That's why people tend to progressively increase their dosage, and even after a long time off they don't tend to decrease it.
In my case here's how it went:
2001-2004: 10-30 mg/day
2009-2010: 30 mg/day --> 45 mg/day (gradual increase)
2011- late 2012: 45 mg/day --> 80 mg/day (another gradual increase)
In my case at least, every time I increased it, my brain would adjust instantly and I could never turn back.
Maybe your gf is the exception, but most people seem to fit this pattern. She might be a candidate for a taper if she wants to quit, but I don't know.
I like what Cassie said-- asking those questions might be a good approach.
I am sorry I don't have better news for you. But in the end, a habit like that is unsustainable and I imagine she'll have to quit eventually.
Good luck to you!!!
very nice advice

thanks for this men, i enjoy reading it. especially this line:
"And there were side effects.
Where I once felt exceptional on Adderall I began to feel agitated, especially late in the week after Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday nights working late, then working early, as an ideas man and rockstar photographer in the global communications industry. "
Feels like my dilemma now

i'm happy for you! keep it up!
