I take 60mgs Adderall for ADHD/lack of motivation, and to even out the effects of my AP and ADs. Anyway, I like adderall much more than ritalin and more than straight dexedrine...I guess the blend of amphetamines works better for me. Anyway, one day I decided to stop taking Adderall cold turkey (why, I don't know...) and fell asleep..for 4 days. Another time though, my script ran out and my doc was out of town for the week, and nothing happened...I just felt sluggish, then I got a refill. Generally speaking, withdrawal from stimulants is usually more psychological than physical, which I guess is an upside. As for the psychosis...I've never had it happen to me, but it did happen to a friend of mine..I have her some AP and some benzos, she was fine. Good luck!
