Amphetamine is not forgiving when its abused but is more so when simply used long term. I know this from a year of dexedrine use and the only answer is to live through it. I have no idea who you are and where you've been so i cant speak for you but a weeks worth of lethargy and some depression doesnt sound like a bad trade off that amphetamine gives especially in comparison to other stimulants.
I've had much more trouble over therapeutic use of sedatives/benzos (valium, klonopin, ativan, xanax)as far as withdrawal than amphetamine. Chances are if you have a doctors over 50 they ate hand fulls of dexedrine during med school (mine did and told me so).
This drugs been around 100 years and i dont think theres more we can say that hasnt been said about amphetamine. Its a personal choice.
