Miss My Adderall

Posted by STRATDERALL on May 22, 2003, at 11:44:55

My pd told me to put my adderall away and start strattera. I have been on various stims for 8 years. I am a 43 yr old adult with add and depression. I didnt ask to take strattera. I called the dr office(a week after starting stratt) told them I read it is not a good idea to stop stims cold turkey. I dont want them to think I need it "but need to ask myself do I NEED IT" Fu^*$%$&*(*^*(IN BULL#$^%. i AM ON 60MG STRATT. It has been 3.5 weeks, tired, angry but try to keep open mind. I was on 80mg adderall xr. "I KNOW THATS ALOT OF ADDERALL" REMEMBER TOLLERANCE? AND USUALLY ONLY TOOK 60MGS a DAY" Back to phone call to PD- I told him I had 5 adderall (I LIED)I HAVE 25...23 now HAHA!!He said to break 5 in half take 10mgs untill gone to ween off. WHY DID IT TAKE MY CALL TO HAVE HIM DO HIS F$%#IN JOB?
WHY DID I NEED TO REMIND HIM A WEEK LATER?WHAT IF I TOLD HIM I HAD 25 -WHATEVER- I did not abuse my adderall, I did take a little xtra sometimes-"sorry AA and all other judgemental stuffed shirts" but any way I DID ASK IF I COULD CUTBACK TO 2 ADDERALL AND STRATTERA "no NOT SUPPOSE TO MIX HE SAID" SO HERE I AM BABBLING AWAY ON PSYCHO BABBLE.I KNOW I CAN GO TO ANOTHER DR BUT IT MAY BE TIME FOR ME TO GET OFF STIMS? I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!! p.s TOOK THE 40MG STRATTS THEN 60MGS ALSO ASKED MY PD ABOUT LARGER DOSE 200LB MALE HE SAID NO WAIT 6 WEEKS UNTILL I SEE HIM NEXT.WHY THE 40-60 QUICKY THEN slam on the brakes? %&*% MY Dr DONT WANT TO SEE HIM EVEN IF STRATERRA WORKS AND I STAY ON IT. I DIDNT ASK 4 STRATT and "feel" like I have no choice or that I am bad if I want stimulants with my strattera. I am on day 3 of no stims proud of myself,again I was taking them everyday for 8 years, and I still have 23 left. ADDERALL ANYONE? THANKS TO ANYONE WHO READ MY FIRST POST. I would appreciate any feedback
