For those of you who are further into the process or even out the other side (whatever that means)...what do you wish you could say to yourself 9 months after stopping Adderall?
Any advice? Managing expectations? What to expect over the next 3-6 months?
Thanks!
I had the good fortune to have enough money saved to not work for the first 8 months after quitting Adderall. I am now at 8.5 months. Prior to quitting I was a start up Founder (so very high intensity / high stakes all the time).
I just accepted a 20 hour per week consulting arrangement with a company I have advised in the past. It's a start up and it's already chaotic and emotionally intense (even with the "boundary" of 20 hours a week.
For those of you who slowly got back into work: A) did you find that you were more capable than the fear/overwhelm indicated or were you actually compromised; B) how long did it take for you to feel comfortable in stress again; and how did you draw and keep boundaries?
