Hello Blue Light, Just posting in here for a couple out looks and opinions on Adderall vs Marjiuana.

I was recently perscribed Adderall within the last couple of months and I havent been smoking any pot at all as the first time I expirmented the two subtances not really thinking about what would happen it had me feel as if I was having a midget punching me in the chest which wasnt too pleasent.

Now my general question has to come to mind that being which would be worse for you long term use? I understand Adderall is legal and is perscribed by my doctor but not everything legal is good for you.

Which makes me wonder if a natural herb such as Mary jane would be better besides the fact that it is illegal. But then again not everything is illegal.

More over, I noticed I can go months, years without mary jane but when adderall is short in my area and Im done with my perscription I get this uneasy feel and need for adderall increases like I try to not think about it when I cant get my perscripton filled but I get rather short temepered without it which is unlike me at all I never fein for anything.

Now Im not a all day burn out stoner anymore, I used to be back in my highschool days but that was then and this is now where I'll wait till late to burn or well I did before I was given adderall.


Thoughts and input on THC vs. Adderall?
 
Only you can really tell. What does the best for you to treat your situation?

Personally i'd chose cannabis anytime over Adderall, which are amphetamines if i'm not wrong.

It really depends on what you are trying to ease up with and what does the job better for that case between the two!

I notice when I try to smoke weed while on adderall I get like talked out of it by my own mind just out of fear due to the fact Im waiting on job interviews so I dont hinder my chances at a job lol.

But yeah good point, they both have there uses as one high keeps you foucesd while the thc high seems to make me more creative, hmm descions decisions lol.
 
Okay, I'm going to start this off with a brief background of myself; I've been smoking weed since the end of my freshman year, and have been prescribed adderall since the 3rd grade. I'm A senior now and a daily smoker, and have only been off adderall for 3 months during my whole smoking career. I personally feel that adderall + weed together increase creative thoughts while stoned, at the same time I've noticed paranoia is more intense while on adderall and weed. During the period I was off adderall I was extremely lazy and didn't have a lot of drive to get out of bed. So that being said I've noticed that adderall takes away from the lazy effects of weed.
BUT, I personally strongly dislike adderall and plan to quit very soon and I reccomend you get off it aswell or just don't take it for more than a year. Because my chronic use of adderall (never taken more then regular dose) had definitley caused some changes in my personality and extreme anxiety. It's addictive and has also caused me to lose a lot of weight and unintentionally binge eat ( I'm not hungry usually until later in the day when it wears off and I smoke weed resulting in me eating everything on sight haha. It's just a bad drug all around
 
They're two completely different drugs.

One's a stimulant, and the other is technically a psychedelic. One you take orally in a pill, the other drug you smoke.

A friend of mine has ADD and takes Adderall for it, and without his medications he gets completely confused, can't even hold a coherent conversation or have a coherent train of thought when conversing with someone, and tries to do way too much at once and doesn't get anything at all done. He doesn't smoke herb and doesn't use illegal drugs. Yes he's monitored by a doctor who knows he's on low doses of Adderall and has been for awhile, is in excellent health for being close to 50, and he takes his prescribed dose and does not abuse his medication at all.
 
Adderall is horrible for you, cannabis is a healing medicine and herb

you know what addy is right? Dextro-Amphetamine. They take the same drug at parties over in England, and its basically a watered down version of methamphetamine. Oh yeah, they prescribe that for ADD too.


taking a stimulant drug like adderall everyday is even worse for you, I would only use it when you need it.
 
Obviously, cannabis has fewer health risks than amphetamine when used responsibly. Still, it can be abused and may cause all the emotional trauma of any other "addiction" when used in excess. Some find that it motivates them while others feel lazy on it and get nothing accomplished ("amotivational syndrome", I've seen it firsthand). It all depends on how it affects you personally and whether you're able to use it as a medicine rather than a recreational drug.

If you're serious about using pot to treat a medical condition, I urge you to seek a prescription for medical mj (if you live somewhere that allows it). Otherwise, do your best to buy organic/mold-free herb, and use a healthier mode of ingestion like vaporizing or eating it. Weed harm reduction 101 :)

Oh, and don't attempt to quit Adderall or any other prescription cold turkey w/out a doctor's supervision. Harm reduction 102 :D
 
I also noticed, adderall has an effect like legit MDMA had on me way back where when I will be driving and have my ipod on shuffle and system on in my car boom song from a live event/ club event I rolled on would then give me that rolling flash back where I feel like Im on E again and its moderately intense. Note : I never drive high or while I rolled howver, I have no choice while driving on Adderall I take it in the morning and I have school to drive to.

But yeah, In general it seems to be hard to not take adderall I dont abuse it simply take the dose perscribed to me and Im on my way. I tryed quitting adderall but it makes me feel like a zombie and mis guided without it the other day I had this flash back when I used to not have adderall to take I kind of miss those days.
 
^i think adderall would make you a better driver if anything lol.

if you can switch to cannabis and it helps you focus (it helps me) then that is the most sustainable and healthy option. I remember my stoner days before i used stimulants/downers and they were much happier/less stressful than now.
