Thankfully I cut off the people in my life who were into drugs so there's that at least.
I am on Adderall. Prescribed. I've been very concerned about becoming physiologically addicted/dependent. My pdoc just told me he doesn't see withdrawal with Adderall. I do not believe it. I stopped for one morning dose and was SO LOW I did not know what to do without it. I got better as soon as I took it again.

As you say, maybe it's withdrawal and maybe it's just "normal" life (without Adderall). Either way: It's like moving/thinking in a barrel of thick molasses. Bleh!

I truly hope you can feel better soon!
