The fact that you are off of it for months at a time is what is probably saving you. It is preventing the tolerance effect. This usually occurs in people you use it every day or so. Are you using it recreationally? Because I couldn't see otherwise how you could tolerate it using it only every few months. Seems pointless. -Jason911
> IMO that statement is wrong....I have taken (and still do) take Adderall but, have never experienced any of what you are talking about...no withdrawal, not stuck in a 'rut' or however you want to put it....and I have gone off of it for months at a time because I pay out of pocket.

Tell me it isn't so. I believe that no one with depression should even consider Adderall in their regimen. They WILL develop tolerance and they WILL feel like (you know what).
