Amphetamines withdrawal?
Has anyone here had experience with withdrawing from amphetamines? I am 4 months clean (used alcohol and amphetamines for years) but still feel very fatigued, sleep a lot, depressed. I would like to speak with someone who had the experience themselves. i want to find out if these symptoms are directly directed from withrawal from amphetamines or if i am developing a depression. if related to amphetamines how long do the last?

I got off an addiction to speed and abuse of a lot of other substances (except alcohol, stayed on that, shouldn't have) years and years ago. All I remember is that I was very reclusive, paranoid, and withdrawn for about 9 months -- tho the worst of it passed in about 8 weeks, in that I could go back to school, kind of (not sure I passed many classes LOL). I'm not sure how much of it was the physical after-effects of chronic drug abuse and how much was underlying problems that had led to the abuse and a lot of ... crap, ya' know?
I recommend that you see a doctor. I should have sought help, and I didn't, and 35 years later here I am trying to be sober for the first time in my life, with a lot of time behind me that I could have spent... better.
Be well, seek help.
