Why are you sleeping so much on weekends? The specific reason?
I really need to stop taking stimulants on weekends. Or at least one day a week too. I don’t know if being off them one day a week will help enough. A lot of the issues you cited are happening to me. And the problems you cited of what happens if you take them 7 days a week are happening to me as well.
I also feel trapped by them. I’ve been off them. But my work output drops steadily until I’m barely doing much. I believe if I stay off them long enough I’ll recover. But the two times I’ve tried i give up after 1-2 weeks as I want to get work done and go into a depressive spiral not doing enough.
Especially now being out of work and changing career paths I feel I can’t stop taking my relatively high or at least strong medium dosage.
I don’t want to be on my current dosage once I begin working for an employer. I’m really hoping I can delay work start date by a few weeks and go cold turkey then continue on a lower dosage. Like half.
