I can easily see why you build up a tolerance so quickly, namely because your dose is so high! I know everybody responds to amphetamines differently but a total of 90 mg in one day is almost criminal! I would suggest getting a second opinion from another doctor. Adderall DOES reach a 'steady state' in the blood stream and at such a high dose I would imagine it does so very quickly. Which you can thank for your tolerance to the drug. I would never recommend just stopping use like you have done before you said, at said dose anyways. The withdrawal from such a dose I would imagine leads to very dark depression, almost schizo/psychosis type thought pattern. I highly recommend re-evaluating your dosing with a new doctor, and wish you the best of luck with everything!
