Isn't adderall Speed? It is abused as speed and must cause anxiety?
Hi Tonya,
The most important thing is to seek the help of a doctor. He/she will be able to help you taper down safely to reduce the amount of side effects from withdrawal. Reducing the dosage by 0.25mg each every two weeks is sometimes recommended with Xanax withdrawal, but like I said, the only way to know exactly how much you should taper (based on your individual needs) requires the advice of a doctor.
In regards to Adderall withdrawal, if you'd like additional information on users personal experiences you can always check out the discussion thread linked below on withdrawals from Vyvanse, which is also comprised of amphetamine:
Discuss/withdrawal-from-vyvanse-180471_p15.htm
Perhaps going over some of the posts there can help give you an idea of what people are going through with these types of medications. If you have any other concerns regarding possible withdrawal symptoms, I'd encourage you to discuss this further with the doctor who prescribed it to you.
The withdrawal process could take months, just do your best to give your brain and your body the time it needs to adjust.
I hope this helps!
