  7. Did speeding through life make you careless through life?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    When on  Adderall I spent my life at the office.  Basically doing admin work, stuff I should of passed off to my assistant, who was useless.  In order to keep my sales numbers up i had to do everything.  I was doing lots of cool stuff in my field but I was obsessed with volume . I need to have big wins every month.  The design team hated me because I was a slave driver constantly pitching innovation in a production oriented environment.  When I got fired it was because of a lot of  drama I created and I was always undermining my boss.

    We could have been office twins ZK. Although, I'm sure we would have never noticed each other...

    Day 41 - Crawling out of the DARKNESS

    I am very happy to report, that I am finally feeling stable and have moments of true happiness.

    I've been cycling between extreme depression and debilitating anxiety that peaked last week. This period of depression was worse than anything I experienced during my previous 160 day quit. I can't even describe how awful every single minute of the day felt and it was getting progressively worse.

    I made a Drs. appt. last Friday and started on Wellbutrin XL at 150mg. I started feeling better within 24 hours of my first dose. It was so terrifying! I really thought I was going to be hospitalized.

    I wanted to do this on my own - without any more meds, but am so happy that I tried Wellbutrin again.

    I hope you all are doing well.

  22. Relapsed - So Ashamed

    in General Discussion

    Thank you, dear interweb friends! 

     

    I listened to your advice and made the choice to forgive myself and get back into the quitting groove. :)

     

    I posted the following in the 30 day challenge:

     

    Day 14  (174 days this year w/out adderall)

     

    Thanks for asking Mila! Congrats on your 19 days and making it through work. You are doing amazing!

     

    I ended up coming clean to my BF right after I posted on here.  He was very supportive and promptly locked up his meds.  I felt so much better after coming clean and talking to him about my slip up. 

     

    I made the choice NOT to dwell on my "relapse" or continue to punish myself with negative feelings. 

     

    Instead, I identified the emotional "trigger" that lead to me taking the pills.

     

    With that being said, I have to report that I am still feeling irritable, tired and depressed.  It is no where near as bad as the months that followed my initial quit....but I have to admit that those 6 days took a toll on my healing brain.

     

    I am not feeling half as good as I did pre-relapse
