I was prescribed and was taking 40mg of adderall a day for the past 8 years, plus 30mg of vyvance a day (with the adderall) for the past 3 years. I cut out the vyvance about two months ago and had almost no side effects. I want to go off the adderall, too and be completely free of stimulants. I’m sure I’m going to have withdrawal symptoms this time though bec if I even skip a day or two, I feel like shit. What should I expect going off of them? What kind of symptoms did you have and how long did it take to get off of stimulants? And how long did it take for you to be able to function and be productive without them?
Realistically, to feel 100% normal, 18-36 months.
If you can taper, that’s an option, but eventually you’ll have to make the leap and that’s when things get hard. Unless you plan to do like an 18-24 month taper.
The whole fucking thing is bullshit I know. We were guinea pigs. The idea that you could safely take amphetamines daily was a lie.
