I agree, I tried to scroll around and helper dialogues were popping up and telling me to use my arrow keys. The UI is horrible and this company should probably fold up and go home now before they waste all of their investors money.
edit: I've become accustomed to the horizontal scrolling in Netflix's interface, but Netflix also has (I assume) a lot of talented UI/UX people on staff, which this site obviously lacks.
I have had substantial experience with both of them, and while the effect is similar, the feeling is not. In my experience, cocaine has a stronger euphoric component than d-amp. Adderall makes me logical and emotionally detached, while cocaine makes me feel like I'm on top of the world.
I think the reason for using the substance could be coloring my opinion of the experience, since I use adderall to get work done, and when I use cocaine (not often, maybe once or twice a year. I did a decent amount of blow when I was doing opiates heavily), it's almost always in a social setting.
I will grant that the pharmacological effects are very similar.
Good job on the opiate sobriety! Suboxone is a miracle for opiate addicts. I took it for 15 months after I got clean, and I really enjoyed the extra energy and antidepressant effect. I experienced minor difficulties adjusting to life without it, but it was nothing compared to real opiate withdrawals, which I'm sure you vividly remember. I've been off suboxone for nearly 18 months now, and I don't have cravings for opiates any more. I think this is partially due to knowing exactly where I will end up if I do them again.
I have considered going back on suboxone, but I found that adderall gives me the same type of effects without being an opiod itself. Adderall does have more negative side effects than suboxone though.
I would suggest using the XR version if possible. You may need 20-30mg, but I have found it is much more stable and I don't feel the need to redose all day long. My friend has an IR script, and he ends up running out early, while I keep a stable sleep schedule and don't experience the mood swings.
Going cold turkey off 40 mg of adderall a day and calling it addiction is a slap in the face to people who have dealt with real addiction. As someone who has used Adderall at this level and stopped cold turkey and someone who has also been a heroin addict, stopping adderall cold turkey is a fucking joke compared to heroin addiction. Alcohol addiction also has the potential to be unbearably uncomfortable, not to mention deadly.
