OVERCOMING ADDICTION- How I Quit Taking Adderall

I posted this video 2 years ago. I am still adderall free. In so many ways I never thought i'd get here. There were so many times where I almost relapsed, but thank god you can't buy this stuff easily. I'm sooooo thankful for anyone who has watched this video. I want to hear from every single one of you. Please feel free to email me at [e-mail] - also if you'd like to video chat on Zoom, or ever need to talk, please reach out.
Also when you decide to quit adderall, do not get discouraged if you happen to gain weight soon after. You HAVE to focus on staying sober, and the real you will be ready for those changes at a later time. Comparing yourself to others is an easy trigger. When you do decide to make more changes after quitting, just remember there are millions of ways to stay healthy. Lifting weights and eating salads is NOT the only way. It really is so important that you learn to love your sober self, and remember to give yourself more credit. You CAN do all those things without adderall (sing, dance, go to social events, take exams, study, or even lose weight). All of the things you think you can't do if you don't have it... trust me YOU CAN!
Seriously. I love you guys so much.

Thank you so much for sharing your story... it gives me hope... im 24 days clean and so far, all ive felt is despair. Congratulations to you!

[@kaqueburlington4278]

Congrats! Great story! I’ve struggled with Adderall addiction for many years. People don’t understand how powerful this drug is. Keep going!

[@MrPooopyButthole]

Congrats, as an addict myself I know how difficult it is to quit and house city your life becomes when you’re dependent on it. You have all my respect, I’m just a stranger but I’m proud of you

[@mikeys6830]

How are you doing as of right now?

[@LostSoulBrand]

GREATNESS takes that silent whisper we all ignore inside us....Sometimes it takes a person...but above all it takes yourself to make the change. SHE made her world different , she made the changes and you too can make it out!! This is proof when there is a will there is a way ! Keep Ya Mental Game ALL THE WAY UP

[@bartoszm652]

Thank you for this video, I’m losing my girlfriend to Adderall addiction. She has changed completely & you inspired me to believe that there is hope at the end of the tunnel. Your video might be able to change her, to quit and achieve sobriety. I will not give up & will try to support her even though she is a complete different person at the moment. I miss the girl I fell in love with. Thank you.

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

Bartosz M I know she will be that person again!! This drug changes us, but it’s not nearly as strong as the people we end up becoming once it’s over. She will come back I know it! Just don’t give up. It will be the hardest thing she ever does, but it’s all worth it. 100%

[@Sarah-fh5jb]

I’m so sorry. I don’t know how my ex put up with me during my addiction phase. I hope you two can work it out 💜

[@womaninthewave]

How are both of you doing now? I’m so sorry you’re going through that. I was addicted to Adderall for years and it nearly killed me. But there is hope- made a video about it on my channel. It takes time but it’s infinitely worth it. I wish you both the absolute best

[@KingDemonWolf]

I'm proud of you dedication is the best

[@armoredmind_]

24 days clean and I was thinking of taking one more pill but because of this video. You have given me hope to keep going. This brought me too tears knowing deep down that if stay away from adderall things will get better. Thank you for sharing your journey for many of us who are going through the same. ❤️🙏🏼

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

Reading this has seriously inspired me more than you know. By you reaching out and telling me this is literally everything to me! Sometimes I still have dreams about taking it again, and I day dream about the days i was on it, but after reading this it really lets me know everything is all worth it. And I guarantee when you look back you will be so happy and proud of yourself. Thank you SO much for this comment, it means so much to me. Please email me anytime you need. I want to hear more about how you're doing! We could also zoom chat, so if you need anything at all please reach out!

[@storybass4454]

Proud of you!

[@taylortaylor8608]

Adderall addiction is no Joke! It takes over your life, and having a prescription makes it worse. I've been clean 6 months now and have gained a lot of weight too. This video has inspired me to start working out and start a healthier life for myself, my husband, and my kids. Thank you for sharing. Adderall took 3 years of my life that I'll never get back, but I've taken the first step and have been clean for 6 months and 22 days and it's the best I've felt in years. You're truly an inspiration and it makes me feel better knowing I'm not alone in this. Thank you!!!!

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

Taylor you have NO idea how much this comment means to me. To know that you have a beautiful life with so many blessings means the world to me that you are making these amazing decisions! Your husband, your kids, and your future self will be thanking you every single day and reminding you just how strong you are. Seriously keep me posted, I would absolutely love to hear more! You can email me anytime and we can even chat on zoom! Thank you again so much for this, I truly feel so blessed to know you as one of the viewers.

[@ChameleonSoul]

That’s why I can’t quitt, I cannot get fat, I’m already ugly there’s no room for fatness.

[@jarenharrison]

so proud of you! it is day 1 for me and i cant wait to get where you are. thank you for sharing your story with me.

[@storybass4454]

Proud of you! You’ve got this

[@SquidneyTowell]

I don't know what to say... you might have just saved my life. It's been three two years since I've had hope for anything in life. After being put on medications, received tons of counseling and therapy, and after admitting myself to a psych ward, I still find myself overdosing weekly. I just about gave up on myself entirely; however, you changed all of that by giving me a glimpse of light in which I found hope for myself. The fact is, your story is also my story with the only difference being; I'm just a chapter behind. Thank you.

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

This comment means the absolute world to me! Please email me and let me know how you are doing now!! You can contact me any time! [e-mail] . This means so much to hear that coming from someone as strong as you! To admit all of that and to even try counseling and therapy and admitting yourself to a psych ward! Is literally such a heroic and admiring decision. It took years for me to even do that, So no matter how far along you are in your journey. Congratulations, and i mean that from the bottom of my heart.

[@cougar2013]

Great great great video. I hope you inspire others and I’m sure you have by now!

[@WorshipDrummerJoeyOss]

What an AMAZING story and video... Thank you so much for sharing your struggle and your success with overcoming the grips of Adderall. I've recently started my journey into sobriety and this has helped/inspired me more than you know... THANK YOU!

[@jgamby5]

Hi Emily, I'm so proud of you! Thank you for sharing. This video is a big help to me. I'm currently in the thick of the recovery process and it's very difficult. I'm believing I'll one day write a story like yours! Thank you!

[@mommameow547]

Sauce I've got mad respect for you beautiful!!! You're an amazing woman and strong as heck!!! All the way UP hon!!!

[@jennarebolledo476]

Lady I love you and just watching you smile made me smile. You are inspiration to me and others. Ever since this year started I decided I wanted no more unhappiness in my life for reasons I won't share on here but I have felt better about my choice so far. My goal now is losing weight as well. :) I'm so glad you found out what makes you happy and still healthy.

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

Oh my gosh Jenna this comment almost made me cry!!!! Seriously hearing these things makes me so happy to hear!!!!! All I hoped that this video would inspire one person but to hear this makes me extremely happy! Thanks so much girl and please don’t ever stop wanting more from life! It truly is beautiful and it’s people like you that make creating these videos so worth it!! You can email or message me anytime if you ever need someone to talk to ☺️☺️☺️ I’m always here ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@jennarebolledo476]

Emily Stone gahh!! Oh I will. And just so you know I have always admired you even before this video. I didn't know everything you were going through but something about your had me admiring you. Maybe it's because I knew all along you have always been strong and that makes someone beyond beautiful to me. 😊❤ I'll definitely give you a shout out sometime. I miss seeing your face. ❤

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

Oh wow that is amazing to hear!!! Sometimes I really don't feel strong at all, and not everyday is easy , actually most days aren't easy! But this comment really means a lot and really makes my heart happy

[@h1jen1x]

@@emilystoneworldaccount9254 um YES, this video is helping me find the courage to flush them, which is YEARS overdue.. I quit in sept 2014, got Netflix and Hulu and gained 60 lbs by April (when u quit)... and found a new doc... years later, much darker and scary... I've been wanting so bad to quit and the weight is the #1 reason/ excuse... and this video...omg.. if it's not today, when the day DOES come, I will be watching ur video on the hard days, but if I follow what u did and commit to a physical activity regimen, that would be wise..

[@Caseyanne1976]

I really needed this video! Thank you for sharing. I’m on day 8 of being sober. Detoxing has been very tough but I will lose everything if I don’t stop. I’ve stopped many times and during those times when I wasn’t dependent on Adderall my life was so amazing!

[@Melissaxorenee]

Holy shit this is so similar to my story and what I’m going through right now I’m stunned

[@nickineedhammusic]

I teared up..thank you for showing your story. I just embarked on my fitness journey, and it’s helped so much. Seeing this inspired me to keep going. Thank you

[@mackthnife3]

I’m 70 years old. I have had ADD (without hyperactivity) since I can remember. Obviously I’ve taken my share of stimulants. I took them for years. I think before one can give that stuff up, you have to experience it long enough to begin to see how it works against you, over time. The confused periods, irritability,the times it just dosent seem to do the trick or worse yet, having your doctor retire and having to feel like a junkie getting a new doctor to prescribe it for you. At those points, you have the opportunity to realize you are better off without it. While I’m more distractable than ever, as I get older and don’t take meds anymore, I can always remind myself of those negative aspects and the urge will subside. At this point I’ve been off it for about 7 years and am better off for it. Yes I’m fatter and don’t feel invincible now, but life is more real now. Also I had basicly no withdrawals from stopping. I just cut the dose in half and then down to zero. Even if you are a legitimate ADD pt, after many years I think it’s not a very good solution in the LONG RUN.

[@Heiscomingbacksoon7]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this!!!! ✨🥰💜🎊

G3MINI brother thanks for checking her creation out! ❤️ I’ll see ya soon on the mix 😎

[@maddisonfrye6590]

Congrats I wish I had the strength you had to quit every time I try I can stand the withdrawals it’s hopeless

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

That's what I thought too, but one day you'll find a reason for yourself and not other people. Just remember to write almost everything down because one day you'll share your story and you'll need all the details you can find. It will happen!

[@stevenkyle2313]

I can't get time off from my job to get off Adderall. I don't care about anything until I take my Adderall. Any suggestions?

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

If you can't get any time off of work, or can't even get two days, the first couple days will be the hardest WHEN you quit... not if. Yes it will be extremely hard to deal with the anxiety and withdrawals while you are forced to interact with people, it WILL get easier. So much easier. First just start with one day. Then 2 days... then try a week. See how far you get, and remember any bad mood or things you might not care about because you're sober, those will get to be easier to handle as well. It's so fucking hard, but trust me it's SO worth it!

[@stevenkyle2313]

Emily Stone thank you! I'm actually four days off Adderall! It's been hard but I've been eating so much! I have no drive to be productive but I did force myself to clean my car out today! I have gained almost ten pounds in the past four days. That's a good thing because I was very underweight for a guy my height. I've noticed I'm very very irritable. Even the smallest of things set me off right now. How long did that last? Thank you for replying back!

[@emilystoneworldaccount9254]

Steven Kyle gosh that’s so great to hear!!!! The irritability is sooooo hard. Honestly that comes and goes. The worst part though is hopefully over for you. And I apologize for not responding sooner, but I sure hope you got through the hardest parts!!

[@Sarah-fh5jb]

Just take some leave for mental health reasons. They’re not really allowed to ask most places I don’t think
