Amphetamine and dextroamphetamine are central nervous system stimulants that affect chemicals in the brain and nerves that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control.Adderall have caused stroke, heart attack, and sudden death in people with high blood pressure, heart disease, or a heart defect.The usual dose is 5 to 60 mg per day.

deeply depressing that i am never going to get prescribed the meds i desperately need to function

#so many people i know just get handed adderall after a 30 minute consultation #but when i show debilitating symptoms that could be alleviated by it i have to undergo 4 years of trial medications because none of my #doctors want to prescribe it to me #i understand the side effects. i understand there are trade-offs #but i would benefit so much from amphetamines because i’ve tried everything else and nothing helps my executive dysfunction #plus it’s not just the adhd. im narcoleptic and have dysautonomia and fibromyalgia and likely have EDS #all of which have symptoms that can be treated with adderall #im so over it #im so close to just giving up

pros of adderall: i can actually fucking DO THINGS

cons of adderall:

#not a fan of the side effect of mild anxiety!!!! whagever a small price to pay to be a productivity god #adhd #adderall

It is so goddamn bizarre when you finally get meds that actually kinda work and you realize that your baseline for normality was buried so deep it could've struck oil.

#like I don't feel Great #this is just day one #but i'm back on the antidepressants that I know actually help #and I've just started adderall #and while I am just kind of going rapid fire through various mild side effects like I did with the wellbutrin #I uh....i feel okay #brain is quiet #i feel present and not muddied #do people actually just feel like this normally??? #just rollin out the pussy with a functioning brain chemistry??? #wild

spent months like I need prescription for my mental health give me prescription please please & now that I have it I'm like hm. do I want to have to take meds, actually

#part of it i think is just that typical anxiety that comes before any life change like s new job or whatever but also like #despite never having TRIED stimulants im familar w them i know people w adhd who are on them i had an idea of what to expect & thats what i #i figured id be getting but shes having me try this non stimulant option first bcus 1 apparently its good for people who also have anxiety #and 2 easier to get w the like Adderall shortages & shit rn #& im like ok i have NEVER heard of this drug before and didn't even know there WERE non stimulant options options. #like im doing all my research TODAY for the first time then pick it up tomorrow? #like me heslth anxiety girl just has to be like ok sure i guess. i had mentally prepared myself for stimulants & thats it!!! #i mean worst case i just try it & see if it works or if i have side effects but like. ugh. & i dont like that i dont like my np LOL like id #probably feel less uncertain about trying something i was previously unfamiliar with if she was someone i liked & trusted more #if i knew there were unfamilar drugs they might recommend to me i probably wouldve started over & found someone new to work with. AGHHH & i #didnt discuss any of this w her bcus it took me a couple hours after our session to think abt it & do my own reading & process my emotions #to really come to thia conclusion. & also i wouldnt have wanted to talk to hwt abt this anyway bcus i dont like her & have not felt at all #like cool w opening up to her beyond the minimum i had to do for the assessment #& my therapist is sick this week so im not gonna get to talk to her tomorrow!@ #texticles #anyway i know ive got fellow adhd bitches following me. anyone try guanfacine did you like it or nah

how to tell if sertraline is making me sleepy or it’s just 2 am

#guess who finally got anxiety medicationnnn #unforch this one comes with side effects :( #can’t all be as unproblematic as adderall #</3

[magioffire]

remember when i thought i didnt have adhd because when i took adhd meds i thought i was ‘getting high’ off of it and always heard that if you ‘got high’ off adhd meds it meant you definitely didnt have adhd

well that feeling of ‘getting high’ was actually me misinterpreting the euphoria of finally having a more normalish brain function and being able to be productive as a euphoric effect of amphetamine and not the functional level everyone without adhd normally exists at all the time lol.

#LOL??? #this is why the 'if you get high off adhd meds youre not adhd' is kinda...not true? #because getting high is very subjective but also #for a ND person being able to temporarily be productive and function IS euphoria #it IS like a high #so maybe a better way of putting is #'if you have adhd it just wont effect you the same way as someone without adhd' #instead of 'any feelings of pleasure you get from the medicine are cuz you dont actually have the disorder and are probs just a dirty junkie #cuz you know....we have a very pleasure-adverse culture thanks to puritanical values but thats a ted talk for ANOTHER DAY #ooc. #tbd. #drugs cw #its kinda like how for someone with chronic pain the pain relief they get from pain meds IS the eurphoria #not any of the actual narcotic effects someone might get from pain meds #people without chronic illness just wouldnt get it sorry #cuz im over here like HM. im not getting any of usual side effects that would go with someone who doesnt have adhd taking adderall #i can eat and sleep perfectly normally #uhh #whoops

So I keep ending up awake and mulling over languages at 4am for no goddamn reason. Last night I ended up trying to figure out how to trick my brain into remembering which of provare (to try) and trovare (to find) in Italian are which, because my brain wants to associate the tr- verb in English with the tr- verb in Italian.

So I think, okay, provost and professor are both words that probably have a Latin root. Is there some etymology that I can remember between them—provare is also "to prove" (of course, the cognate there somehow doesn't help, since I can associate that with either finding or trying, if we're looking at proving in the academic sense, which involves both trying out hypotheses and finding information). So I go look up the etymology.

AND THE AUDACITY OF HUMAN LANGUAGE.

Not only is provare in no way related to either provost or professor, but THEY'RE NOT EVEN RELATED TO EACH OTHER. They are all from entirely different fucking Latin root words.

Anyway after all of that I'm pretty sure the difference between the verbs still has not managed to sink into my brain and I will second guess myself every time and probably continue to fuck it up, but have the meme I made on my phone in the middle of the night in outraged furor.

#so as you can tell adjusting to the new adhd med is going well #when will my original generic return from the war. it gave me no side effects. #as a sidebar wtf is an adderall shortage bitch y'all are making meth. go rent a fucking RV or something idgaf. #I know this is not how things work and it is very much a joke but also. ARGH. #with the number of 'shortages' over the last few years that have turned out to be virtually manufactured for profit I'm over it #really the answer to my problem here is 'it's the opposite of a cognate you dipshit' so I just de-associate the tr- verbs but #I had to go down this angry linguistics rabbit hole at 3 in the fucking morning first instead.

Bro I can’t fucking do digital art anymore it straight up makes me wanna gnaw my hands off.

#I get frustrated like ten minutes into it I can’t FOCUS!!!!! #Maybe the side effects of adderall are worth it….. #ophidian lore

I really don't get why they gave Arthur port after the transfusion. They should've given him a coffee and a cigarette to raise his blood pressure

I wouldn't recommend those, either, as they raise the heart rate. The best things to give (as far as we know nowadays) are what they would give you after donating blood today, like juice and cookies. These replenish your blood sugar, which your brain and remaining red blood cells need for energy. Salty snacks are also good to eat, especially before giving blood, along with plenty of water, as both will raise the blood volume and pressure without affecting the heart rate.

#I learned abt salty snacks and water the last time I went to give blood #unfortunately my adderall was just kicking in when I got there and my pulse was too high for them to take my blood 😔 #dracula #dracula daily #original #my answers #(my doc has put me on clonidine to help offset the side effects of adderall dw)

downsides of the reacquaintance with adderall: it tends to give me some sleep onset delays, cuz that's one of its main side effects (along with being an appetite suppressant), and i already have BAD insomnia that i need to take melatonin for, and basically last night i finally fell asleep at 1am and woke up this morning at 4:30.

anyway time to do reading analysis homework and be sociable with my parents as well as my grandfather who does not speak my primary language.

#personal #now i remember why i tried taking vyvanse in late 2018 over adderall #cuz these side effects are brutal #the vyvanse side effects were also brutal cuz it gave me some SEVERE depression that nearly fucked up my whole life

[roundaboutnow]

Ngl, the first day of adderall was so funny. Within 30 mins of taking it I was literally outside with some soap and a rag and was cleaning my car for the first time in my life and I was still like 'yeah i dunno if it's kicked in yet'

my car looks great though so 🤷

#concinved my brother to wash HIS car this weekend and his was SO satisfying to wash #i kinda wanna make it a regular thing? #i know it's not gonna be as fun since theres not gonna be as much build up but still #and then i got the bAD side effects and KNEW it had kicked in #whats up with adderall and wanting to clean things #for the record this IS prescribed #still on the trial run of course but the side effects are chilling out and i have a bit more motivation/focus #I dont think this is the perfect fit but it's definitely better than before thats for sure

*hits blunt* Adderall is just capitalism crack

#this post brought to you by #the fact that I need adderall to function in my job but the side effects suck and I wouldn't take it if I didn't need money

Potion of anxiety recipe:

1 part espresso

1 part Adderall XR

#side effects may include spiral into depression heart palpitations and dehydration #mistakes were made. I initially wasn't going to have Adderall and was just going to have coffee but partially through my coffee I decided #I did wanna take it #em rambles

[deathbringer]

feels like some kind of cosmic fucking joke that my ADHD med is one of the few completely unaffected by the national shortage, but over the last month and a half it has lost all efficacy after almost 3 years without problems.

#trick talks tag #if psych ups my dosage and that works i will be so relieved #if it doesn't i am probably fucked #Adderall's side effects do not work for me. Vyvanse stopped helping about a year in. #Wellbutrin gave me migraines. #i guess i could try Focalin or Ritalin lmao #love having a fucking broken brain.

Man like... one of the weirdest things about writing is piecing together the setup for a scene.

Like, for example: I’ve written a scene for way on down the line for my story. I don’t have all the setup hammered out yet, I don’t know what all happens from the current point to that scene.

And it’s wild figuring out like... okay, the protag complains about how dark everything is, and that tells me that he loses his flashlight before getting to that scene. He doesn’t try to call for help, so I now know he’ll lose his means of communication.

And like!!! I didn’t know these things when I wrote the scene! I just wrote how it seemed like it should go! It’s like peeking into another dimension where the story is already finished and just getting a glimpse of things.

Anyway other authors already know this but if you didn’t know, most of the time the author doesn’t know what’s going to happen next until they’re writing out the sentence immediately before it.

#writing #idk #i took my adderall and its kicked in so im in babble mode #ive bee trying out a new technique with this fic #which is 'fuck transitions just write whatever scene you're feeling at the time and bridge the gaps later' #and it's working FANTASTICALLY #the side effect being im not quite certain on how long things are until ive got about 70% of the chapter written #and then i can figure out 'oh this is too long we gotta move some stuff around'
