I got a few adderall. I dislike them and the comedown effect. I got a lot done but It's not for me. However while on it I have no desire to take the opies. I have to here and there to avoid wd's but I have totally taken a full dose out of my life in the past 4-5 days.

That's 90 mg + I've cut down my other doses. So I'm doing at least 120 mg less than I was doing last week and its because of the adderall. I won't lie my legs are pretty sore and I feel a little something not right, but the adderall is masking a lot of it.

So I'm down to about 200 mg for the past few days. It was a fast taper here as I was binging at 400+ not to long ago and I wanted more. So I'm excited about this. All I have to do is let myself get stable on this dosage and then move another 50 or more mg out of the equation.

I really hate the semi parnoia feeling I get from the adderall, it brings back memories of my tweaker days. I have (.eight) 30 mg pills( access to many more if I need) and I'm taking a quarter of a pill every 3-4 housr only taking 3/4ths of the pill in the day.

I have to take .5 xanax to get to sleep but I'm making headway with my opie problem.

I have a question. if I can get down to 120mg oxy would that be a good time to switch to sub and take the adderall out of the pic and finish the taper with the sub's? A very quick taper. I figure 3-4 strips ( 8mg) Will do what I need.

I wanted to ween down before going to the sub to try and avoid dependance on the sub.

Another question. If this adderall is helping me so much in where it totally takes the urge to do oxy away, why isn't something like this used in professional treatment facilities for out patient use?

I'm serious, I take the first quarter of the adderall and I have no want to do any oxy at all. I have to do some in the morning to keep out of wd's but usually i dose again 2-3 ours later. that second dose is completely out of the pic for a few days solid now.

Also , how long does it take to get stable at a certain dose? Or should I just keep going taking more away each day.

Anyways, I hear adderall isn't physically addictive and has no wd's , except for long term use and thats just being tired.

Thanx all.
