Long term effects of adderall
I used to take a lot of Adderall and drink a ton of coffee in college (sometimes up to 60mg of Adderall). Eventually I started getting weird symptoms if I took too much — dizziness, hyper-sensitive skin, feeling overstimulated, etc.
One day I had a really bad experience where I dissociated hard and felt like I was looking at life through a tunnel and didn’t feel real. After that I started having severe anxiety/panic attacks and constant dissociation. Even working out would trigger panic because of the increased heart rate.
I stopped taking Adderall, and over the last 4 years I’ve slowly improved, but I still feel mentally different. My memory is worse, I’m way more anxious and stuck in my head, and work/learning conversations/socializing feel harder because I can’t process thoughts as quickly. I also can’t tolerate caffeine anymore without feeling anxious and out of it.
Has anyone had this happened to them and what did you do to fix it?
