He has been awake for three days in a row. He is not selling them, he is trying to buy more from my friend’s husband as she told me. He doesn’t need to sell them. He has problems with addiction and being obsessive with a lot of things.

OP here. I have been documenting everything and it seems like it is getting worse every month. I have adhd and go to the same doctor. I do not take my pill every day. If I am on vacation, during the weekend and off here and there, I just don’t take it. Because of that I used to have a good amount of pills, and I noticed they were vanishing the day I counted them, and saw I barely had for the rest of the month. So he went through a lot of them on my back. I was just thinking how he will handle the rest of the month, because he has a demanding job and only has 4 pills.

You need to think this through.

How will reporting him affect you? Your life? Your security?

Are you ready to walk away from him or vice/versa.

Pool I would call the doctor, as I would anytime I had a family member with a psychiatric issue that wasn’t being upfront with his psychiatrist. They can’t tell you anything but they can listen and let it inform their decision making.


That's my question too. What does he do when he runs out?

Al anon and call to doctor sounds like a good start. I'd also start documenting things, OP. Just in case the doctor is shady.

I’m so hopeless that I can’t even think straight.


so what happens when he runs out of pills before the end of the month? Does he function?

As someone else said, I think a good place to start would be al-anon.

Best of luck.

I do. The doc could get in trouble for prescribing.

Yes, you could call his psychiatrist or therapist or whoever is prescribing the medication. Just tell them what you've seen, to give them a heads up.

I don't think reporting is the right step here. He needs treatment or rehab instead. You need to encourage him to get help rather than trying to get him in trouble.
The keys to a successful intervention are influence and leverage. Are you ready to leave him if he doesn't get help? If so, tell him that. Adderrall can be highly addictive so it's likely out of control for him at this point. Best of luck, I hope he gets the help he needs.

I don't think reporting him is going to do anything. He isn't going to change unless he wants to, and he's addicted right now. I would try a Al-Alon meeting to see what your options are for yourself right now.
