Because of the shortage I've been forced to go off of Adderall and you summed up how I feel right now being off of it. I feel dumb, lazy, aimless, easily distracted, it's upsetting.

You do so great at explaining the adhd experience in this video! I appreciate it :)

[robgordon]

Great video - I'm 70 and it has been life-changing, and can relate to everything you have said here. Going off meds - or especially being cut off totally sucks. If it happens, or if you decide you want it to happen, your "life should be in the right place" where there are not too many demands on you. Not sure your doctor is right about your heart either - I have had heart issues in the past, but I am convinced my health - including cardiovascular, is much better on meds than off.

Wow you just described what I am going through to a T. You know of what you speak. I still have a full perscription but I am trying to stop. Like you said, I do not feel "bad" just no motivation, easily distracted and depressed.

I think there are a couple factors. When I quit, I sleep for 2-3 days; day and night. I have inattentive type and I'm on a much higher dosage.

I was taking adderall recreationally for about a year and a half, I stopped taking it about three weeks ago…. I had tried a couple times to stop taking it and I kept relapsing. With the help of a doctor I have been clean for almost three weeks, not long, but it’s a start. Wish me luck! I want to stay off of it for good!

I take 10mg, extended release, for 22 years. When I do not take it, I just want to sleep the day away, and do. I have ADD, now called ADHD non-H. I take it when I have to go to work, and I usually work seven days a week. Now, despite it being extended release, I feel it starting to wear off mid day around 2:00 pm.

Your depression was caused by a dopamine drop. That's what adderall does. It increases dopamine. Even if you're dopamine levels are naturally low, you're still going to deal with a decrease in dopamine after quitting adderall.

Almost 5 years sober. Just started taking Adderol and can’t help but feel guilty. Although it helps tremendously. At work, at home. I’d say the only thing I have to focus more on is eating. I eat mainly at night with a few snacks during the day. Thanks for your honesty in your videos man they help alot

When I take breaks it makes me kinda tired and more adhd for a few days but after a week it’s not bad. I’ve gotten off of SSRI’s before and that was a nightmare.

[glennborek]

Same here, I have ADHD, times when I can’t sleep I’ll take an Adderall put me right to sleep

[jessaud]

i take dexadrine very simliar to adderall and experience the same thing. my biggrst thing i noticed first after being off for several days is my anxiety is back ten fold im not calm anymore and i cant sleep anymore.

[MattXAN]

I use thinking in patterns and getting in a routine with anything I do still depression tho you just gotta deal with it tho or smoke and make music

[susanburns]

You are a breathe of fresh air dear man 👍 you've helped so much, thankyou.
I was only diagnosed age 49, now 60 and have been on vyvanse, which I'm not sure is same? It's 70mg. I didn't even know there's non stimulant medication!
Life's been a bit of a rollercoaster ( not that I'd let anyone know) and you've made me feel better 🙏🇦🇺

5:06 I thought I was the only one sitting there like this trying to fight my demons

[trueoutlawpubgmobile]

[gregchapman]

Brutal to come off them things, just brutal

[michaeldefiore]

Adderall makes me calm and tired when I take my medication I have adhd inattentive type I just got diagnosed and I’m 30 wish I was diagnosed when I was little I would have probably graduated high school I never stopped the medication it helps me focus but it doesn’t make me hyper it helps with my depression and my ptsd which is weird

[kodeveryfullmoon]

I quit plenty times cold turkey but does anyone else get flashbacks of random events that happened in your life ?? Or am I just crazy
