[quote=Anonymous]If you have ever tried taking a stimulant for a while and then not taking it, you would find that you go through a withdrawal phase - like any drug. As a child when I didn't take my Adderall, I broke my wrist in PE, got sent home from school etc. As an adult, if I don't take it, I can hardly get out of bed and then when I do, I feel like I have a terrible brain fog all day. It goes away after a week or two of not taking it. Is my brain permanently rewired? I don't know but I do know that I can't remember most of my childhood - the incident which led me to the diagnosis, I remember clear as a bell. But after that, it's a bit foggy until I stopped taking the medicine for a while at 18. [/quote]
