hi... i'm 24 and have been taking adderall for about 4 years... probably the most intense drinking period of any normal college students life.
since i started taking adderall, i could drink all night long and never really get drunk. first of all, it makes me feel like i need to be doing something physical at all times, so i end up smoking MUCH more and its like i need the physical aspect of picking up the glass and drinking it to soothe that feeling. (well, i'm not really thinking about it like that at the time but when i look back i can see that or just going from bar to bar, that time w/o a drink seems like forever!) i don't feel that is alcoholism either. my own theory is that it is a drug that makes you focus, concentrate, and pay attention... so even while intoxicated it will do the same thing. when i first started taking it i just got rediculously more social while drinking... now, i still just want to drink more and more but overall (sober or drinking) adderall has taken a real toll on my personality. i'm not really very funny or witty anymore. thats the biggest problem i've had!! but like an idiot, i feel i can still drive and operate just fine while drinking and have been told i do so just fine, but i'm still legally over the limit. let me know if you've got any other thoughts |
