> I am withdrawing from adderall, that might be some explaination but there is more to it than this
It always feels that way when a biological depression sets in. Adderall withdrawal will do it. It always feels as if there are other things in your psyche or environment that is contributing to the depression. There may be a bunch of issues that you need to deal with in real life, but to even attempt to approach them now is ludicrous in the state you are in. The immensity of what your problems seem like now is an exaggeration as seen through the warping lens of the biological depression.
All you need to know is that this bad time will pass soon. In the meantime, try not to attend to those things that bring you additional anxiety and depression. Put them away for awhile and take a vacation from them. When the biology of the brain stabilizes, those problems will still be there, but they won't be so overwhelming, and you will probably be able to better solve them.
Good luck.
You have friends.
