    Start Adderhal Treatment?

    So, I might be starting Adderhal again. For those of you who don't know, its ADHD medication that is literally pure Amphetamine

    I was on the stuff about 6 years ago, and I was on it for at least 3 years but they stopped prescribing it to me because I refused to go back to therapy. Quitting the stuff proved to be too hard for me, and It ended up driving me to find street "alternatives". Now, after living almost 7 months clean and sober, I'm getting offered Adderhal treatment so I can have that little extra kick in my step again and I'm not sure what to do.

    I know MPGH isn't the best place for sound moral advice, but after being in and out of recovery multiple times in the last few years I can honestly say I want this to be the last of it and this would almost feel like cheating.

    I suffer from ADHD and I know how this affects you.
    Personally using it as a medication sucks, I'd only use it in dire times of need or when you want to "have fun".

    Other than that I'd call it completely useless.
    I have 54mg Concerta.

    I have ADHD, but I find huge amounts of caffeine to suffice.

    I have to point out that it doesn't work for everyone. i.e. Me.

    I have 54mg Concerta.

    Concerta and Adderhal are different though. Adderhal is more of an "enabler" while Concerta is more of a "stabilizer"
    Was on 25mg Adderhal daily, as well as I would buy my friends prescription each month for 10mg and take an extra one of two as the day went on

    I took it for two reasons. I was doing a lot of work as a construction worker at the time, so the extra boost would make me work hours on end without getting exhausted. The second was because I wanted to drop a few pounds, and I ended up loosing up to 60 pounds at one point. (Thats when they cut me from it, They wanted me to go to therapy as well as rehab for annorexia). So with my history, you can see why I'm a little reluctant to start taking them again.

    I really hate my diet. It usually consists of loads of energy drinks, soda, and coffee as drinks.
    I eat mostly junk food, candy, and chips. It keeps me really calm.

    I feel bad for you man, hope you can feel better.

    Maybe because your arteries are so saturated with fat you can't get enough blood flow and it keeps you calm

    Then don't take them mate.
    I personally don't really enjoy my Concerta pills at all. I did at first, no I neglect them.

    Try to find other ways to cope with it is my advice to you.

    I have one, and I can state that both are very real.
    And if you're trying to troll, I'd advice you to come back with something else, that wont work.

    Not fat, caffeine.
    I don't eat really fatty foods, as I watch my weight.
    I eat highly caffeinated foods.
