Brief Answer:
adderall overuse

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for asking in chm
I can understand your problem.
Actually she is having withdrawal symptoms because of sudden stopping of adderell use after chronic use.
She can be in depression stage, or in the stage of lucid dreams.
That's why she is not responding your calls.
I will suggest you to visit her home and if possible take her for hospitalization.
After some drugs and behavioral therapy she will be fine.
She is not responding because her mental state is so depressed to response any type of stimulus.
Hope my answer helped you.
Better to take her in hospital ER.

I wish you and her good health.

take care.
you can ask other queries too.
REGARDS.
