>struggling in college>get diagnosed with ADHD>get prescribed Vyvanse >holy shit>im motivated and focused and i can understand things way faster>literally spend 8 hours straight studying>felt like the guy in Limitless>1 week later>barely feel anything >back to being a procrastinating unfocused retard>double my dose>barely feel that too, basically like a strong coffee or energy drinkWhy did I get such a strong tolerance? I can literally become a hyperfocusing ultra productive god but my brain just doesn't want to give me the right chemicals. This sucks.
>>16877602Maybe you don't have ADHD, maybe you're just not suited for college. Not everyone is, sorry to say - I wasn't.
>>16877602That's good. Your brain won't let you take the easy way out. Start meditating and learn to focus your mind on the moment. You already have all the tools you need
>>16877602you're just taking too much retardyou shouldn't really take more than 1 a day and you shouldn't be using them if you don't need them. take a few days off the pillsdon't rely on pills rely on your own volition.
>>16877602>I can literally become a hyperfocusing ultra productive god but my brain just doesn't want to give me the right chemicals.Its called getting high, and it will never be as good as the first time no matter how hard you chase the dragon. You should try only taking it once a week for a weekend study/homework session, rather than every day. Tolerance builds fast.
>>16877602ADHD Stimulants>leading to long-term brain damage and deficits in motor and cognitive performance.
>>16877602Basically, you experienced what your peak would have been like before your brain was ready. So, your life's work was for nothing.
>>16877602You are suppose to focus on the pain.
Maybe you should try taking it when you have nothing to do, see how you handle boredom, which is usually the most difficult part of life because most people just can't be alone with their thoughts.
>>16877602That..sounded a lot like getting high. Like how heroin addicts forever chase the first high and never can get it.You probably didn't have adhd. Everyone with ADHD says the medicine makes them calm and sleepy, not a study god
>>16877602>get diagnosed with ADHDcaused by parasites and toxins
>>16877777Isn't that what Vyvanse is supposed to do though? I just thought I was getting my ADHD under control
>>16877994maybe try concerta instead
>>16877777>Everyone with ADHD says the medicine makes them calm and sleepyNo they don't ADHD drugs have the same effect on everyone (depending on tolerance levels), that's just cope from people acting like they're so much better than all the other college students who use drugs to get through their studies
>>16877602You have to give breaks at least at weekends
>>16877602you aren't supposed to 'feel it', you're just supposed to be functional. a general tip from your elder: there are no silver bullets in life. your entire life has been spent coping with attention issues, and now those chickens are coming home to roost. you need to train yourself to be focused, to pay attention to the things you want, etc.>>16877777"stimulants make me sleepy" is among the most retarded things, literally parroted by others who parrot it from others. it's almost as bad as people who talk about "dopamine hits".
>>16878168>"stimulants make me sleepy"Not sleepy but no effect. Very common
>>16878109>ADHD drugs have the same effect on everyonefalse
>>16877602Your roommate is stealing the powder inside by opening each capsule and dumping it in his flitly globhole then he replaces it with god knows what
>>16878173just because you don't feel it doesn't mean it has no effect. a good, functional dose will be subtle, just enough to, with effort, get your shit together (compared to, say, putting in effort and shit still not coming together).
Most bouts of ADHD are caused by circumcision
>meth makes you get shit donehuh
>>16877602reset your tolerance faggot
>>16877777Nice quints, but having done heroin a bit before, that whole "never catching the feeling of the first high" is kind of a myth. I've hit that peak plenty of times; it's not that hard. >>16877602I take Ritalin for my ADHD, well generic, at least, but it's definitely your tolerance, which is based on your genetics. My friend takes generic Adderall and blows through his 60 pill script in about a week and a half to two weeks, then gives time for his system to reset.What dosage were you taking, anyway? Most people I've interact with that take ADHD medication, whether legally or illegally, don't really have this problem.
>>16878325>What dosage were you taking, anyway? Most people I've interact with that take ADHD medication, whether legally or illegally, don't really have this problemWhat do you mean? Are you saying tolerance doesn't happen in a week? My dose is 30mg but I took 60mg a few times.And I guess I should clarify that I don't feel nothing now, I do feel a bit more alert, but that I stopped getting that sense of actually enjoying studying and wanting to continue doing it instead doing it because I have to. Vyvanse was getting me into a flow state for like 8 hours straight and now it doesn't.
>>16878344Tolerance easily develops in a week. I'm saying that your case is a general anomaly that doesn't happen to most users, like feeling close to nothing. Like fuck, I've been snorting my Ritalin for the past few days and when I wake up for my morning oral dose, I still feel it normally. It's just how you're wired, I guess, but what you were feeling before was definitely more of a high, like where everything's fascinating and you feel like superman.Also, you can't snort Vyvanse, from what I've heard. It has some kind of chemical that has to break down in your digestive system and can't be routed directly through the brain for insufflation. You're welcome to try if that gets you back on the ball, but that's only if you want to be "irresponsible" with your medication.
>>16878344I think you are supposed to take the medication and learn to usefully exhaust it in your system. You crashed because you were taking it even though you didn't need it. So you should take it only when you really need it, that way you are more disciplined. If you find yourself needing it everyday, then that's a problem because you have no discipline. You should use it to establish a healthy routine, find some other meaningful thing that naturally pumps dopamine, like writing or volunteering, lifting, jogging, etc not video games or porn, something meaningful and productive.
>>16878178Kek this The building administrator could potentially be in on it too
>>16877777>heroid addicts are shooting up and reading books in the streets or trying to make a game plan for the next year and totally not just passing out for hours before they shoot up again
>>16877602you need drugs that leave a PERMANENT markhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=R3pfsUgtL9A
>>16877602>>literally spend 8 hours straight studyingThat's not particularly much anon>inb4 "b-but muh ADHD"Yeah, I have that too
