Potential Adderall overdose
 

Hi there everyone...So I have used adderall randomly throughout the past few years. I will go ahead and say that I have first degree AV block and I'm also bipolar and have insomnia so you're probably wondering what the **** I am thinking taking it in the first place. I work 3rd shift and occasionally use it to help me get my work done. Racing heart beat is normal for me. But I was having severe palpitations this morning while at work and began to feel intense abdominal pain for about three hours. I am no longer feeling the pain as much but I have been sitting since I've got home from work so I don't know how that will feel when I go to stand up again. I have lost feeling in both of my thumbs and my hearing is going in and out every so often. I also get a dizzy sort of electric feeling come over my brain randomly. I only took 30mg of XR. But that is the second pill in the past few days. Previously I have taken up to 80 mg in one dosage and did not get severe abdominal pain so that was what really made me nervous. I hunched over through the rest of work and felt extremely sick, shaky, and cold. I do not believe that I will die today. I do not believe that I need medical attention. I realize everyone is different. I can probably go to sleep in a few hours once I am finally able to close my eyes. I'm not even sure why I am posting this here at all to be honest.

Would you like to stop using, hem87?

I'd recommend seeing a doctor even if you dont think you need to. Those are some very scary symptoms.

How are you doing Hem? I think your symptoms sound serious, I agree you should get them checked out.
Welcome to SR :)

I have the same symptoms and have been clean 7 months. I think it's the flu but will let the doc decide.

Welcome hem87 nice to meet you

i would still see a doctor to make sure i know it can be scary but trust me youl feel better for doing so you know that deep down my friend

youl find so much support here

Not to split hairs or anything, but the flu is respiratory not stomach stuff. You probably have a stomach bug that often maybe people call the stomach flu for lack of better words I guess. The stomach bug is definitely going around, its just that time of year. Man I remember the last time I had that I was miserable. I didnt leave the bathroom for what felt like 2 days. It does pass. Just stay hydrated.

However, the OP symptoms seems like it is kind of severe with loss of hearing, numbness in thumbs with abdominal pain. Could be withdrawal since I think I read the OP is taking less than normal, but its not something to take lightly. A DR visit might be in order for the OP.

The symptoms you describe sound scary to me, hem. A visit to your doctor or to the doctor might be wise.

Please keep us posted.

I hope that you have decided to talk to your dr.
