think it's time to part with adderall

Any of you been prescribed adderall in the past and what made you finally quit?
Aside from its benefits, which seem to be disappearing over time, it's become more of a problem for me. It's not that hooked on the rush or anything. It has turned me into an antisocial worrier and it's not helping me at work anymore. Pretty much back to the "meh...no energy, i don't give a fuck about meeting this quota today" attitude.
I've taken a few breaks from it, only to find myself a complete lazy sloth with no motivation for the time of the break. Soon as I take that first dose again, I feel great. Fast forward a week = feel like shit, veins full of speed, thoughts race and I stare blankly at my walls after work in the evening feeling a weird combination of "awake" and zombified.

I was taking adderall from the first grade to 7th.
I wasn't addicted to it so I quit cold turkey once I didn't need it anymore.

Do you use it on a schedule, or as needed?
I was never prescribed it, but I only ever took it when I needed the rush. Finals week spring 11' was the last time I took any though.

if youre talking to me...
i use it as needed, but never really that much. ill take some if i have a busy ass day or if i need to do some serious cleaning.
years ago i use to take epic ass doses just for the fuck of it. most ive taken was 7 30mg IRs at once. i was spun the fuck out!
horrible horrible horrible crash though. probably gonna die from a heart attack when im 40 though...

Think of it this way, probably healthier than my 3 energy drinks a day. I hit about 360 mg of caffeine a day.

i use to go overboard with that shit too... i would buy red bull buy the case and drink multiple energy shots a day. stupid stupid stupid...
luckily i put a stop to all that. i stick to coffee now and an occasional energy shot. maybe once a month, if even that.

i use it as prescribed but some days taking 3 10mg IR is too much/sometimes not enough. the other annoying thing is ive got to constantly shovel high fat, high protein foods in my mouth because it jacks my already fast metabolism to an insane level. i eat all fucking day just to maintain body weight and blood sugar--still sometimes not being enough.
