| I actually have a very sincere fear that I am becoming highly dependent on Adderall. It was prescribed for me right before my freshman year of college and I went from my C average in high school to damn near an A. After that first report card I was in awe. Eventually, I moved up to 30mg per day and over time I barely felt the original rush that I did when I began to take it.
Just to describe the euphoric feeling, since it is a very common question. The only way I feel I can do it justice is a pretty nerdy way. Remember when Luke was flying his plane in the Death Star? Well he had to make that perfect shot, and he knew he had to make it by himself without the computerized weapon guidance system. He made the shot obviously, and thats how I feel every action is when I am on Adderall.
Now I am in incredible shape and incredibly focused on whatever task I have to complete. I worked in a pharmacy prior to moving and I was always at least 100% higher in productivity rates than the other employees (I normally did 240% productivity average throughout an entire month). Outside of those accomplishments I really have nothing though. When the Adderall wears out I feel like I am a burn out. I rarely see anyone I know and easily go 2-3 months without making a phone call or going out once. Other than to workout or do research.
I would not really suggest anyone try and become prescribed on Adderall, it will turn you into a machine. It may sound tempting to be a machine, but trust me it is not as good as it sounds. I really fear that if I wanted to simply stop taking it, I would not be able. |
