Hi,

As of lately, I have completely stopped taking Adderall. It was really difficult at first, but now I am beginning to feel again. While I was taking a lot more Adderall than I was prescribed, I started isolating myself and started to not really care about much. Now, I am much better! I am 20 and had been taking Adderall for a little over a year before I started wondering if I was addicted. I went to a Psychiatrist because my Fiancé said that one might help, and it did. I was reluctant to get off of it, but I am now on Strattera which is an ADHD med that helps with concentration and while it doesn't have the stimulant effect, it helps me concentrate a lot better. If you think you have a possible addiction to Adderall, it might be a good idea to stop before it gets worse because it certainly got worse for me, and I nearly lost my Fiancé because of my addiction.

I wish the best for you!
