Guys, I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of getting real bad depression after coming off Adderall?
Long story short, about 6 months ago was the first time I ever tried Adderall. I was working an average of 70 hours a week and to say the least, this new to me drug was absolutely a life savor.
Fast forward about 6 weeks ago because of several reasons I decided to stop taking it cold turkey. I honestly figured it would just take a few weeks to get acclimated to working again not on speed but I would get over it. Im naturally an extremely hard worker as it is.
Well almost instantly I got real depressed.
To quickley illustrste the night and day difference:
Before I would go to the gym several times a week, always eat healthy, I have a dresser full of vitamins i have taken for almost 2 decades now, love spending time with family and my girlfriend of 5 years, etc.
Since i Have quite the adderall almost 2 months ago I have literally went to the gym once, i have gained 15lbs, I dont have much motivation to eat so ill grab a few chips or some bullshit once a day, im WAY to unmotivated/lazy to even take any vitamins, im completely OK seeing my GF like once a week for a few hours, and literally the last 2 weeks, outside of going to work, I have literally not gotten out of bed. I mean, i even spent St Patrick's day laying in bed, unmotivated to do a single thing.
I have never been described any drugs for any mental or physical illness and Im not a huge recc drug user to begin with. In the last 6 months I habe done X once, blow twice, and this past week smoked weed 3 times to try and not be so down.
Outside of the addies, life has been pretty normal. I have no idea what else would be causing this if its not the speed.
Wtf did I do?
