I notice that I write and talk more when I take it. But it sure is amazing. I got three projects done this evening and managed to make some inroads on a deal I've been trying to get made for years. I seem to articulate my thoughts correctly and focus on one thing at a time. I don't seem to be out of my chair so much.. it's been three hours that I haven't gotten up to wander around aimlessly. That's pretty nice.
I'm told that only people with ADHD respond this way to adderall. Most people it'll make them jittery and energetic, right? Me, it doesn't. I'm sitting here calm and peaceful and was able to focus on things I've been needing to do for weeks now.
The only downside is that it seems to help me stay awake for a longer period of time. Ever since I was a young boy, I stay awake for well over 24hrs. When I take adderall I might end up being awake for 48+.. when it wears off, if I don't sleep, it can go the other way on me.
It seems to be effective in me for nearly 20 hours when I have the extended release capsules(they give you an instant dose and another equal dose 4hrs later). When it wears off I never redose but if I don't go to sleep I do end up scattered and upset and jittery. I got into a-lot of trouble once when that happened.
I was doing the right thing by NOT redosing when I'd been up too long.. I was trying to not abuse it, which I haven't ever. The answer is to FORCE yourself to sleep when you get to that "I've been awake far too long and I'm useless and upset" stage.
Anyway- it's a miracle drug, but I don't think I would want to use it more than 2-3 days per week. Does anyone know if having only 1/4 normal kidney capacity could be why it's effective for so long?

You ever look back and think.. who the hell was that? And, what drives people?
