Adderall made my hair thinner, skin more wrinkled, got thin and weak, felt disconnected to friends and family, long never ending to do list, overthinking EVERYTHING!

Yeah I feel more "human" since I quit cold turkey. The first 3 days were brutal. I was sleeping all day, couldn't get out of bed. But by day 4 I woke up feeling "alive" again. It's hard to describe. It's like I've awaken from a brain fog and now everything seems so much clearer. It's only been 5 days and I already feel 100 times better. I started taking cbd gummies and I think this is helping to speed up the recovery process.

[@aprilhassell1747]

​@handsomeX im 9 month off from quitting cold turkey. Still dont feel alive. Im so depressed...how long did you use the drug for before you cold turkey. I used concerta not adderall

[@jasminegarcia3633]

In my second week quitting adderall cold turkey. Here are my symptoms -Depression/ suicide thoughts -zero motivation to do anything that I want to do - I feel the need nap or sleep after any task even though I don’t want to sleep that’s all my body wants to do. However, - I have zero anxiety now

[@irose.]

Congrats on quitting Adderall!!! 🙌🥰👏 that’s a huge accomplishment. I totally felt the same as you and it does get better as your body recovers. I am sorry your experiencing suicidal thoughts. As you stay sober, your mind will clear up and you’ll feel the energy to live. I’m proud of you!

Knowing what the detox symptoms are will help you overcome them until you are past the detox. I wish I could push all the detox symptoms off on all the doctors that prescribed this crap like candy!!

[@seansurfn2]

look into a spiritual or hollistic counselor. someone who tells you.. your fine as you are. we dont need all these drugs to do well in life. i used it for 11+ years and was institutionalized twice after having anxiety attacks and withdrawal symptoms. i finally am attending na meetings and going to counseling to understand the reasons behind my anxiety.

[@Alexander-mg4pr]

I abused adderall, it ruined all of my friendships, relationships, caused me to become disconnected from reality, and once I quit, I went through the most insane psychotic episode possibly imaginable. It completely changed my personality. The worst part is, once I finally quit, I eventually felt like my old self again, but realized I had been a completely different person for the past 5 years. This sent me into shock and I almost ended it all. Adderall completely ruined my life. My question is, while you were on adderall, what did you do with your time?

[@irose.]

I totally relate to your story. Glad you were able to quit 👏👏👏 I kinda go into what I did during my recent video. Thanks for being a part of this community 😊

[@taylorm1690]

I’m going through that right now. Made me a horrible person when I was on it, then went I went off of it (3 weeks ago) it sent me into the biggest psychotic episode of my life. I’m still in my “episode” going on week three. I feel like I’m going literally insane. I feel like I’ve lost my sanity and ruined my life.

[@Alexander-mg4pr]

@@taylorm1690 Taylor, I was in my psychotic episode for nearly 8 months and during that time I did a lot of damage to my life. I ended up in a rehabilitation center which helped me a lot and probably saved my life. I'm a 25 year old male from NY, NY. Talking with people who have gone through similar experiences really helped me. If you ever want to talk I will make myself available.

The episodes of paranoia and anxiety I feel are really scary and felt like I was alone and it will last forever but hearing other people had these problems has helped me immensely when they appear along with breathing and meditation. Also exercise has been helping me get my dopamine and norepinephrine chemicals through the day reducing the frequency and intensity of these episodes

I am so glad you are here! Yeah the paranoia and anxiety is such a daily struggle. Thank heavens for mediation! Exercise can be hit or miss for me - sometimes it triggers an anxiety attack. Keep up the good work, Doc 😊

[@YourAlaskaGuide]

WOW, Spot on with everything you went through. I have been on Adderall for over 40 years of my 60 years on earth. When covid hit and I was laid off, I quit cold turkey. It's been about 6 months and I am going through the blaws. I have money, but desire to do nothing like you mentioned but watch movies and KZbin videos. I have to force...and I mean force myself to do anything. A nice day I should be riding my motorcycle, or fishing, flying my drone or something. I started taking vitamins and supplements with the newest being NAC. I feel as if I am climbing out of the rabbit hole, but am getting better. Thanks for the video as I can see I am not alone. Oh, I have to say, the coffee thing. I could not start my day without coffee and now, I just don't desire it any more.

[@aliceconnolly2865]

I’m an artist and found it helped me paint for longer and take more creative chances than I normally would have. I loved the false confidence and resilience I felt. It helped me bury painful experiences, but not resolve them. After taking it for many years, it has become my identity. It dictates my moods, which slightly change each month and refill. (Not sure if anyone else has had that experience). Looking into recovery has felt isolating because I never told my friends out of shame. I’m trying to find the courage to quit and make peace with who I am. Outside of KZbin, have you been able to find a community to help/support? Thank you for this video, and hope your recovery is going well 🤍

My first week of quitting adderall: intense extreme fatigue. Sleeping 10+ hours with a 1-2 hour nap in the middle of the day. Migraines, depression, and crying outburst. Anxiety and panic attacks. However after praying and relying on God on day 7 of adderall withdrawal my mood went up, I felt happy and extremely content regardless of my circumstances. Felt like I could focus better without the adderall because I was having restful sleep, and had interests in my passions again. I also cut out caffeine at the same time because my mind was over stimulated all the time. I would take my adderall and drink coffee because I still felt "tired." Also my psychiatrist told me its okay to drink coffee, even thought its another stimulant........ Long story short. Trust your gut. God created you to in his image. Beautifully and wonderfully made. He gave you a unique brain, own it and like rose said- self acceptance is the key to managing daily struggles of adhd. Remember ADHD is not apart of your identity. Everyone has weaknesses and mine have to do with the symptoms categorized under ADHD. I may struggle with ADHD but ADHD is not me.

[@seansurfn2]

WELL SAID! i found god as well and its saved me! when i feel anxiety i go on walks or drives.. or read the bible

[@adamkitsis9641]

Quitting rn for the second time but this time I’m kinda worried because when I picked them up 2 months ago I’ve just been on a complete bender since then basically taking crazy doses sometimes within a 24 hour span and staying up a way too long too often. But I’m on day 2 and it really hasn’t been horrible basically what you described. The first time I got on them I was pretty good about it just kept It to like one or 2 pills a day max and wouldn’t pull close to as many all nighters and went periods without them unlike these last 2 months. The reason I got back on adderall was to “get back wasted time” in a sense from a previous addiction which I can say no withdrawals will come close so that’s always a plus. Anyways great video! Love the positive energy and what you’re doing keep it up

Omg Im living in my bed, I quit cold turkey and I never want to touch adderall ever again. I have tremors and yesterday I vomitted. I started to worry, I feel so reassured now watching people talking about it. I know I’m not alone. Thank you. Its been a few weeks, I take potassium and magnesium supplement to help. I eat more than I used to so I did gain a few pounds… but its all right. Went from 130 to 145. Not that bad. What sucks at the moment is the lack of motivation to exercise and the tremors. I can manage the negative thoughts. I hope my shared experience will help someone. Also! Most important part is to drink water. I have a 2L bottle and try to drink the whole thing everyday.

Oh god I can relate with a lot. Haven’t committed to coming off of adderall, I want to though. I’ve just recently started experiencing psychotic symptoms while on adderall and it’s so confusing and scary. It started subtle where i was experiencing some hallucinations but I wasn’t worried since I thought I was still in touch with reality. Well that didn’t last long, my bf and I started fighting about something and it must have really stressed me out because I somehow got the idea that he wanted to/ was going to kill me. It was so terrifying for both of us. Now I’m just so terrified I might fly into psychosis and hurt someone because I believe they’re “after me”. Also, I saw on a diff video that your dad died. My dad also died recently. I really like that you’re talking about it. I’m tired of watching all the popular movies and shows where the main characters mom/dad is dead to give their characters a tragic anime back story 🙄

@@MsPopo81 It’s sweet of you to ask, I really wasn’t expecting to get a reply from a comment I wrote so long ago, but it was a pleasant surprise. I’ve cut adderall completely out of my life now, and my mental health issues have gotten to a point where I’m able to live a functional life which is really cool. I wasn’t able to live a functioning life when I was doing adderall, it was making my depression so much worse I do Xanax and a less well known, and legal drug (in Florida) daily still and also take medication for mental health issues including ketamine infusions. So I’m still not recovered. I’m just able to function I’ve also been doing therapy on and off and have a friend group also struggling with mental health and we support each other I’m back at university and more content than I’ve been in a long time. I’m in a toxic relationship and I know I still have a lot to work on but I have hope I plan on continuing to work at reaching my goals. Do you have trouble with drugs or mental health?

[@jamestrentham8576]

Hiya, just checking in to see how you're doing? I'm nowhere near ready to withdraw from meds yet. I actually take Medikinet which is a methylphenidate, so they may be similar. Withdrawal and starting medication affects each if us in so many different ways! I'm very happy if you want to share. Take care

[@MyraMabry]

@@jamestrentham8576 Oh wow hi!!! I did not expect another reply to this comment lol! I have both good and bad news. The good news is I feel more empowered and less depressed than I have in a long time (sometimes I never thought I would feel happy again). The bad news is I still don’t have the right medication regimen and my life is still a bit chaotic but I’ve recently been making a lot of healthy changes. This included getting out of a toxic relationship and going back to school for psychology. I also just completed a psychological evaluation yesterday and will receive the results in approximately 1 month. I will try to update this comment at that time so I can give more information. I want to recommend that other people who are not getting the treatment they need (and don’t know what treatment they need) go get a psych evaluation, because it’s objective and thorough. From my POV it seems as though a lot of psychiatrists will prescribe things without even knowing what’s fully going on with a person so be careful. An actual evaluation is very expensive and very long though.

Adderall drove me crazy and caused social issues. I had super severe ADHD and the change the adderall did was made it where I went from losing 40 things a day to losing nothing at all, but the other effects were beyond what I wanted to bare. Vyvanse made me live the life that I had wanted to live and never could because of the crippling effect of the ADHD in my life, but with neglect-able side effects . Every one is different and not everyone has ADHD as severe .

[@grey5135]

I was put on adderall as little kid in elementary school when it first came out and I took it for all of my developmental years into my mid twenties(25). And then I got off of my parents insurance and my life came crashing down. I took out adderall every day and never really thought anything of it. And then when I stopped taking it, it was like. Oh, my God, I'm done for I can't do anything. I don't want to do anything, I'm worthless. 0 motivation 0, 0 physical energy, 0 focus complete brain fog. It's like someone just took my Brain Out of my head and left me with only what I needed to stay breathing. And maintain a heartbeat. It took me about a decade for my brain to heal and get back to normal to the point where I actually had motivation to do things and actually have wants and desires again.... I don't even know how it's legal for doctors to prescribe that stuff to young people who are still developing. Because it's literally pharmaceutical grade meth.... People like to pretend like it's not but it's just pharmaceutical grade meth. And it's like steroids for your mind so if your so when you stop taking it, you won't be able to maintain and keep doing whatever it is your were doing on adderall I promise it will be nearly impossible unless what your doing doesn't require much mentally or physically. Getting off of adderall was the best thing I ever did. It was hell on earth, but I finally made it through. And I am so glad I got off of that crap It was a long, 10 years of healing. I remember the first time I laughed at a TV show or movie in over a decade. I startled myself. And that's when I knew my brain was actually healing. And it was getting back to normal. Because I actually started laughing and stuff again and actually wanted things and to go places. Adderall completely fried my brain. Stay away from that crap. If you gotta take it to study for finals, no problem here and there, it's not a bad thing, but if you're taking it on a regular basis. You're a drug addict And you're gonna go through all the same stuff. Drug addicts go through when they try to get off their addiction drug. And it's doing all the same damage to your brain and shutting off. Narrow pathways that you're no longer using. Because the adderall's pretty much doing all the work for you. But then you'll realize how anemic your mind has become once you stop taking that stuff, and you actually have to function, you're gonna be 100 times worse than you were before. If you had a hard time focusing before at all, you will literally not even be able to focus on anything. If you start taking adderall and stop taking it, it will just be even worse. Adderall fixes nothing all. It ISIS abandoned and it covers up the problem. And the problem just festers and gets worse underneath. And the Admiral exasperates everything. Because it's just pharmaceutical grade meth.

I have ADHD and am currently prescribed Adderall. I’ve been taking it for just over a year now and despite my addictive personality, I never abused my prescription, even didn’t take my meds during the weekends or holidays (because they usually don’t call for much attention) however, I am thinking of switching to a non stimulant adhd drug to see how that works. I hope I don’t experience too much withdrawal symptoms when I do make the switch. And congratulations on staying sober!

I had an Rx for adderall for 11 years. I just recently was weening off and due to supply constraints was forced into quitting early. I’ve been exhausted beyond exhaustion and going to bed early. I’ve also noticed weight gain that I had previously worked off, so that’s a little frustrating, but I’m giving my body room to deal with the withdrawal. I’m also more hungry than before and I can’t get satiated when eating. I stopped trying to get full and just eat healthy portions, but it is super stressful to be disciplined!

On her podcast, Mel Robbins talks about her struggle with 75 hard - a practice of going 75 days without something you’re addicted to. In this she speaks about if we fall off the wagon one day, you don’t get down on yourself, you accept it and get back on the next day. And you don’t go back to day 1, you start where you left off. Because perfection is a myth. I love that concept and have seen the self-love and healing brought on by adopting this principle!

you’re reaching bottom of ADHD dysfunction due to dopamine depletion, and your brain was looking for sources of dopamine (such as food, hence the weight gain) in order to compensate for the lost dopamine it received from the stimulant, I’d say of the best natural replacements for dopamine it would be: love: spending time with loved ones, meditation, exercise, taking SUN our #1 energy source, doing something you once loved, stay away from negative thought-triggering things/people, all of these things are about self-care, people with ADHD just need more self-care than neurotypicas to reach mentally stable levels, sucks to say, but I do know that once we feel good, we feel better than neurotypicals feel because of our augmented range of emotions.

I quit two weeks ago, I just got to the end if the rope with the medication. I feel soo much happier now, the only thing im getting used to is I need more energy. I also hd an eating disorder but im ready to heal from that and if I gain weight im not going to beat myself up

I am on day three- cold turkey. 20mg twice a day for 15 years. Also I have quit alcohol for almost three weeks. I drank for three years straight and went from a size 6 to a 16. I have a lot of work to do on myself but I have the guts to do it. I am always afraid of going anywhere and I dont want to have friends. Those two ideas just drained me mentally and put me into a panic. So now I want to get back to myself before I took my first adderall. I want to love life again! I want to do things without worry of what might go wrong. Too I want to be around family and enjoy that relationship.

We are in this together! I understand how you feel/ felt. It’s an almost inescapable hole of torture. I am still tired all the time on month 3 but not exhausted before 10am anymore. I definitely don’t get as much accomplished as I used to on adderral every day, but I am slowly really understanding that the level I was functioning at was not normal and it’s ok to not do everything on your checklist every day, now I try to just hone in on 1-2 main big things I want to get done in addition to work each day and it’s been a working pretty well. Give yourself credit! You are taking control of your own life and happiness!!! Which means once you and all of us get ourselves in an ok state, we can finally start to help others…our families, friends, and new friends to become the people we really are deep down, and not just a super effective / non human version of ourselves on adderral.

Withdrawal from Adderall what’s the worst thing I’ve ever gone through and the best when I started on a roll I have no clue what it was I took the pill went to work did my thing and started getting a little bit more I had a little bit more didn’t understand what was happening and within two years I was completely jacked on it to the point that I had to get locked up and went cold turkey and I thought I was dying as I withdrew from it the best experience and the best memory to learn a lesson about what not to do with an addictive drug

[@Hafhafnhaf]

I've gone through withdrawal every time I quit and ended up back on day 3. I got so disgusted I weaned off without telling anyone. Still went through the worst depression and suicidal thinking and felt like I wanted to throw up. I didn't expect it. I ended up increasing cymbalta. Now I'm going to have to go through that withdrawal whick is a different kinds of hell.

I’ve been taking adderall from 15 until I was like 26 with a few years without in between but been sober from them for about 2 years the hardest part for me is that I miss having the energy to do the things I enjoy and without it I find myself to lazy to do anything anymore which makes me miss it a lot

[@LIGHTININGBOLT1]

Currently in day 3 or 4 of withdrawals. The cramps and brain pain (not a proper term but I don’t know what else to call it) is awful. I’m not necessarily addicted in the abuse sense but I am severely adhd and dependent on it for daily function... (ie not driving off of road due to distractibility, not making a fool of myself during presentations, etc.) I’ve been on it for around 2 years and due to insurance quips and a pharmacy issue, I’m currently running without it for a while and man what can I do to lessen the overall awfulness?

I would recommend talking with your doctor. What helped me was taking it easy: a lot of rest and water. Wishing you the best!

It sucks when you become reliant on it. I feel like I have to take it to be productive in work/school. Whenever I don’t, I am so tired and spend most of the day in bed because my head is so foggy. Did you get more energy over time? It’s just weird not being on it. I’ve taken it for many years but had to stop now because I can’t sleep more than two hours a night without waking up.

[@irose.]

Hey Corey! So when you stop taking it, you are actually going through withdrawals, which is why you feel completely not yourself. If you were to detox from the Rx, then you would eventually start to feel much better. Withdrawals can last a few weeks-months. Make sure to reach out to your doctor if you stop taking it. 😊

[@meaganvalenti2946]

I forgot to mention.. I take vitamins a, b, c, d and e as well as 200 mg of L theanine and eat protein and fruits and veggies. I find that when i take vitamins and nutrients my neurotransmitters feel like they repair themselves faster.. Lots of spring water and try to get at least 9 hours of sleep.at night. I always consume high dose of caffeine after adderall or i wont be able to function without severe brain fog and tiredness.. So.tired i.fall asleep sitting up at my desk. I dont abuse my script.. I.take.it as prescribed.. But its.potent medication that is very strong

There’s going to be side effects no matter what unfortunately. For me I decreased by 20% each month then got so sick of the issues it was causing went cold Turkey. Best thing you can do when getting off it is diet, working out, supplements and a natural brain supplement like alpha brain. I’ve tried quitting multiple times on my own but 7 days ago I had enough with all the problems it’s caused had my doctor unsubscribe me and told my wife and family about how much it affected my life and they never knew besides my wife and that helps a lot. Keeps me accountable and they can understand the situation. I been praying to Jesus and that’s helped the most with reading the Bible. I’ll pray for you!

Taking medication responsibly under the advice and prescription of a doctor is a completely safe and sometimes necessary route. As long as you aren't an idiot about it, there is nothing to worry about. You are not an addict. ADHD is different for everyone, for me it's debilitating. I was diagnosed at 28. I knew something was wrong with me long before I even knew what ADHD was. It was never even on my radar. It's not always about "just accepting yourself for who you are". That's a load of bullshit. Try telling someone with diabetes to stop taking insulin and just accept themselves, or someone with severe depression to just stop taking antidepressants and accept themselves or 'be positive'. Sounds ridiculous, right? ADHD is the same. Some people have very mild symptoms, congrats to them. Most of us need a combination of meds and therapy. People using ADHD meds recreationally infuriate me because it's their fault that there is so much stigma and that people who ACTUALLY need it, have a lot of trouble getting prescriptions.
