Strangely, I'm getting tired. I did my best to split Adderall into 1.25mg. It's double scored so I can pretty easily get 2.5mg. Again, I'm not wide-awake nor do I have a very restless mind. Maybe I misjudged the MD's suggestion about taking a low dose of Adderall at bedtime. This is only my 2nd experiment with this new method.
I think what I'm doing is playing a dangerous balancing act with myself, and failing. It's clear that I prefer to dull my senses. This is apparent through overmedicating with Lunesta and using marijuana. Adderall, while treating the ADHD, tends to reverse any depressant effect. I become uncomfortable and therefore back off Adderall, thinking that it's worsening my problems. I am wrong.
Rebound insomnia and anxiety are withdrawal symptoms primarily from Lunesta and marijuana, and maybe from the Adderall wearing off at 8-9pm. So, fellow babblers, I want to make a promise to you: I will stop using marijuana and will stop misusing Lunesta. I understand that I may no longer be prescribed Lunesta by the MD. I am not seeking a reply or answer. Just felt like sharing. Thank you for reading & for helping me stay on track. Take care.

So far so good. :-)
Fyi, I tried getting all these posts in Substance Use removed. No luck. I started getting concerned that my doctor and employer discovered I participated in this forum. My doc knows about everything b/c I'm very honest...I don't hide anything from them, so I guess I shouldn't care. Anyway, my employer monitors all of our activity. Phones. Computer. Everything. I'm a dumbass for accessing this site at work...but I'm at home now so no worries. I work in financial services as an insurance agent. It's all out in the open now. Just giving you an update. Take it easy. Peace...
