My doctor okayed THC use for me (to wind down at night), so i test positive for that + adderall. Ask, it might be okay

Its 100% crazy bullshit that we're tested like this

My doctor is aware of my THC use. I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult. I was essentially self medicating with THC to control some of the symptoms that come along with ADHD like anxiety. I could not start on adderall until I tested clean of THC. Took 2.5 months of being without THC and repeated trips to my doctors office and getting tested before I passed (the Amazon test strips were not as sensitive as the doctors office one).

Overall I’d pick adderall over THC any day. But the truth is both together is even better. Adderall during the day and THC (well THCA in my state) to wind down at night. It’s just lame to have to spend 2 months a year having to stop THC to finally feel like I’m happy the rest of the 10 months of the year.

Why don't you just take one of those 'cleaners' before your drug test? You essentially drink a ton of water to dilute your pee and the solution adds all the components back to make it look like you didn't dilute your pee.

Did a ton of reading on that. It’s very hit or miss. It’s a similar approach to creatine loading and then drinking a large amount before a drug test. Some places also make you retake the test if your pee is too diluted. At the end, the adderall is more important to me. It helps me be a better father and husband. The THC is mostly to help me sleep and have a few hours not anxiously trying to make plans for every possible outcome in my work week (which tends to not be useful).

Until the government gets their act together (and I mean all of them, the democrats also have holdouts on the topic), I’m stuck doing this in the state I live in. Moving isn’t an option as our family, jobs and support structure is all here.

Thanks for the advice though. I appreciate people trying to help a person out and I genuinely mean it. I think we have too many old school and old fashioned people in office on both sides of the isle and hopefully that will resolve itself in the upcoming years.
