It does not call the brain damage either taking daily or episodic. If you want to stop this med, you need to discuss with the prescribed physician or your current family doctor.

There is no documented evidence, or scientific data, implicating Adderall causing "brain damage" in adolescents or adults. You do not reveal why you take this drug, only noting absence of some diagnostic conditions. Might be useful to discuss stopping, if possible, with the doctor who prescribes this.
