Medication Withdrawal

Hi, I am a teen (14M) with ADHD, Autism, BPD, and ODD and was assigned adderall for such. But recently I’ve had a lot more misuse with it because of how overwhelmed with my emotions I am. This morning, I got tired of the temptation of taking more of it and I disposed of it safely. My girlfriend and best friend are supporting me through my journey of quitting adderall, but I’m concerned about how/if I can deal with any possible withdrawal if those are to occur. I also have been assigned more adderall for the upcoming school year, but I want to remain clean and not take any under any circumstance, my mother insists I do (she does not know about my misuse issues) and I don’t know how to convince her to allow me to skip the medication. For now, the only option I know is faking taking the medication and disposing of it after.

Please any advice is really appreciated, Thank you
