Thanks for the posts. Sorry I havn't been here for a while. I got off the Vynase, had 4 days of feeling super week, tired, and depressed and then another week or so of mostly psychologicalally not feeling up to par (and my par isn't very great - thats why I have always self medicated). NOW, I had my chance to get another round of Adderall. How can I say no to something that makes me feel so good, productive, fullfilled, and severely enhances my socail and sexual life (didn't have much of any life in those catagories nowdays before), etc. I am certainly concerned that it could become my worst addiction in my 42 year life but I have to convince myself one way or the other. I realized and figured out after a while that the "train wreck" that started this whole thread a while back was actually mostly caused by quitting the Paxil. It was not Klonopin withdrawal (that would be crazy from just one pill!). Paxil is the worst anti-depresant to quit - even gradually. Normally after missing even one day of that I am starting to feel bad but the adderall seemed to make me not need it so I would think that was the perfect time to quit the Paxil - WRONG! It masked the Paxil withdrawl for about 5 days and then created really horrible symptoms and the Adderall would stop working etc. I want to try the Adderall now without doing such a dumb thing like that. Part of me would really like to seek a legitimate script for Adderall but the other part of me thinks danger in the long run. How can I not do something that does so much for me? It is far better then any other drug I ever did.
Well, I am going to start being a regular contributer at this forum - or at least I want to now while on the Adderall agian. Other times I have a hard time putitng much energy and focus into such things.
Anyone that could tell me real specifically how much worse withdrawl can get after I have done it for a longer time - that would help. Right now it seems the negtative I go through while waiting till I can get some more is worth it to get the positive things I get when I do it.
How much worse does it get in the long run? I did quite a bit of coke when younger so I already have some tolerance etc. before (and certainly after) my few months of doing it for a week or 2 each month. Are the longer lasting deficencies afrter quitting more pysiological or psychological? It isn't like the horrible withdrawl of benzoids but still far from pleasant. Can it ever get dangerous? (mostly just in high doses I suppose).
Feel free to warn me, yell at me, tell me how if messed you up, tell me its ok or good, or tell me a doctor where I can get a script. It does seem too good to be true and that worries me a bit but as long as I can get it - at least for now - I am doing it.
