Now, I don't feel high when I'm on it. There is a dropoff period where the drug wears off and you feel like your body crashed. If you aren't a girl about it, you can fight through it, but the crash happens when you should be going to bed.
I have spaced out my dosage so that when I wake up at ~10am, I take 25mg and a few hours later I'll take another 15mg. This lasts me all day.
How Dexedrine works.
Prefrontal lobe and other areas shrunken (that are in control of impulses, motivation, reward center etc...) there either isn't
a) Enough Receptor Sites
b) Dopamine
Drug creates a dopamine crush (very different from ritalin) to ensure all these receptor sites are filled.
Don't have ADHD? You will fill high. Simple as that.
Positives:
-I've never seen my house cleaner
-My Finances are a lot cleaner
-It supresses my appetite
-I can think of the big picture, and actually set up goals and feel good (I know this is gonna sound crazy, but I have a little voice that keeps me in the right direction in my head now)
-In a situation that needs a decision or an action, It's easier to recall on past events and make the right decision.
-I've lost 20 pounds
-I'm not so impulsive on purchases.
-Anxiety under control.
-I'm cooking at home, and actually setting a budget of what I can eat out.
-I'm actually doing things I thought i'd never do (i stopped playing games period, unless someone comes over, I started learning the ocarina and I'm learning a third language, and I read an anatomy textbook front and back.
-With the help of "Evernote" my life feels much more organized.
Everything in my life is better, all because of one pill.
Cons:
-If you don't get good sleep, do not take the meds... SERIOUSLY IT BLOWS.
-Headaches when I initially started (I don't really do drugs, rarely drink etc...)
-Sometime I do talk a little faster than usual, but usually when I don't get enough sleep.
So yeah, probably not real
Anyways, gonna ask to go on adderall. It has 2
