My Boyfriend Is Addicted to Adderall
Posted: 09-04-07 18:42pm

Okay so it's my first time on this site and I normally wouldn't be doing this but my boyfriend is having a major problem with adderall and I have no idea how to help him. He's tried quitting it many times and he has always gone back on it. He says he need it in order to function and get things done! Here's the thing though...he doesn't just swallow it..he chops it up into a very fine powder and snorts it! I've repeatedly told him to stop and he does for a little while and then just goes back to it. This past weekend he took so much of it that he wasn't able to do anything all day. He was weak and it took 24 hours for his pulse to get to a normal rate. I told him that I was going to take it away from him and I did and he is very upset with me right now but I feel that I did the right thing. I was so scared for him that it was my first reaction. Did I do the right thing? And how can I get him help to get off the adderall? How can I help him help himself?
