So I have a question...a family member of mine who has abused adderall for about 20/25 years, taking a months supply within a few days (not sure how many tablets they were supposed to take in a day) but basically they would be up binging for days on end and then crashing for a few days when they ran out. So now this family member is all of a sudden saying they are only taking half a pill a day.( I have to note that this person never admitted to any of this behavior. It was just extremely obvious when you’re getting strange and random texts messages all throughout the night then 2 days later the school calls and says this family member didn’t pick their kids up from school and they can’t reach them only to get to their house and they’re sleeping. Also with the knowledge they are prescribed adderall) I also have to note that this family member is a pathological liar (still the stories they tell don’t make any sense or add up) they are extremely mentally unstable. I guess what I’m asking is does it sound feasible to go from abusing high doses for such a long time to simply taking a half a pill a day? I’ve never personally experienced an amphetamine addiction or abused amphetamines. But I have gone through a Xanax addiction and being clean over 5 years now I know I could never take a half of a pill. Even if I were legitimately taking it for anxiety. It’s just with all the other lies they still tell I have a hard time believing this. Oh and the fact that when I do see this person they are still talking a million miles a minute, constantly changing topics and they just don’t shut up. Exactly how they have always been. Can someone please give me some insight? Thanks.
