Basically it’s poison. So easy to fall back into it too. Just taking it everyday for one week and you’ll have a pretty fucking tough 2-3 week withdrawal.

I started taking it pretty hard every day in 2009. I strung together about 3 years of sobriety (2014, 2015, 2016), then fell back into it hard in 2017. Basically developed symptoms of psychosis—not sleeping at all, crazy agitated all the time, panic attacks like every week, on edge and lashing out at people. Calmed way down in 2018, but last week I probably had like 400mg M-F and now I’m trying to detox and it’s hell. Today was impossible.

jesus - are you a biglaw senior associate/ junior partner?

i've had weeks like that but don't think I've ever experienced a panic attack. withdrawal effects are mostly just a terrible brain fog and lethargy where nothing seems worth doing, and i just try to hide from the world until my next refill. trying to set myself up for a "dumber" job so i can get by without feeling i have to take this shit just to keep up.

Yeah. Withdrawal is bad brain fog, lethargy, increased appetite, lack of will to do boring ass work. I hate it and feel unbalanced. It’s much better to not be on the pills at all.

And no, I flamed out of BIGLAW (couldn’t hack it; too much stress)

My new job is 1.5x as stressful as BIGLAW. It is pure hell. I gakk out just because it helps the day go by a little faster.

Oh it’s not good by any stretch of the imagination. My health is the worse it’s ever been. I am chronically sick and depressed and I’m sure I’m about to get fired.

Took it all throughout LS, decided to quit two months before the bar exam, passed anyway. Adderall is poison and you don’t need it brothers.

Quit for 1 month now and feel better than i have in years...B12 and 5HTP help a lot with the initial weariness and brain fog. And coffee.
