When I take Adderall 50 mg IR and above (my recreational dose), I feel great and dandy. Although after this short sensation I go into what I personally classify as an amp comedown. All I feel is energy and I can focus a lot more but no more euphoria. I start getting very VERY self conscious and anxious. I feel that everyone's saying bad things about me, and even staring at me. When I walk past people I hear them say hurtful things towards me..every single person. I really don't know if it's happening or not but if it isn't, I really would like a way to reduce or even eliminate these delusions. It's hard for me to get anything done when I hear people saying hateful things every time I come within 5-10ft. I've only been back on amphetamines for maybe 2-3 weeks, having a moderate-heavy use 2 or so years ago, and I'm already going down the same trail that is cut off by a giant ditch. I'm getting better at not re dosing, but if I don't re dose I get these paranoid, insecure, and worthless thoughts, rather than passing out from a 3-4 day binge usually accompanied by static and beeping noises, that came from my usual first time amphetamine experiences. I really have no motivation for anything, and everything doesn't even matter. I just can't deal with normal life AND the hurtful words and the mocking laughter I assume are towards me. Are there any ways to reduce paranoia and anxiety during times like this? I've gained weight recently and I feel like this may be connected to that? I've never had this problem before.
I know this looks like a pathetic post. But if you have any personal ways of calming down during paranoid thoughts, it would be greatly appreciated if you could share. I just can't put into words how horrible it feels to have the feeling of being stared and mocked at the whole time one is in public.
