I NEED to quit Adderall.. Please share your stories and tips, I'm in a loop....

Original post in this thread

[deleted] · 41 points

I've been on it for 10 months now.. It has changed me, I didn't like myself before it for not able to think and react properly, it got me focused, too focused.. I lost my feelings, I lost my friends and I'm losing myself. I need your support, I got some 5-htp and L-Theanine for my anxiety and depression. I'm on 90 mg of Adderall. Yes.... 90! I've had ADD, anxiety and depression before I started, it gave me confidence that I never had. I built a tolerance and my anxiety inceased, I feel like I'm inside a shell and now I'm crumbling on myself. I know I can do it!! Any success stories out there??? how did your life change after it?

Edit: After recently starting the 5-htp and L-Theanine I have actually felt much more less edgy and "feelings" came back even after being on Adderall. I feel like Adderall has been providing a great benefit but at a great price too. Anyone with experiences on 5-htp & L-Theanine to their Adderall on the long term PLEASE share a comment! I feel that this might work I'm torn up about it..

Update (Wednesday): I cut back to 60 mg today, Aiming for a lower dose tomorrow. L-Theanine has helped me get through the day, I didn't feel the urge to want to take more…

That's fascinating about egcg. I've read that high levels of b6 will help convert 5htp to serotonin before it crosses bbb, and one should reduce b6 intake or switch to tryptophan. Would egcg mitigate this from happening?

Yes, EGCG should mitigate this.
