How many of you guys are on adderral?
This job requires us to work insane hours and me mentally dialed for long stretches / wee hours of the morning. Personally, I've been on adderral ever since the summer internship. One of those things you can't really talk about with coworkers, but I'm definitely curious what percentage of people are actually on it. Let's get some data here..
I'd be interested in knowing the dose and whether it's instant release or extended release too.
I’ve never tried it but am hitting the desk soon and wondering if I’ll need it. Am definitely interested to hear people’s opinions.
I get 30 50mg vyvanse and 30 20mg insta addys per month. Hardly use all that. I’ve built up enough stock pile to kill a family of 4
Should anyone be concerned about having an ADHD diagnosis on a medical record?
No
if u want to be a pilot
How do you like vyvanse over adderall

Bro a 20mg instant would have me non verbal while simultaneously shitting my brains out
should i take it for a SA?
It helps me tremendously at work. Without it I’d literally be a janitor or maybe line cook at chipotle if I was fortunate.
Why not try a Pepsi zero instead ?
Dude do both. I take 20mg Vyvanse and some amphtamine salts in afternoon. Wash it down with any zero sugar soda. (Not Mountain Dew)
Cafine and adderal is the cure.
Now I’m not in nicotine but if ur tryna develop an eating disorder- I’d have some zyns for desert.
hey, i'm a reporter at WSJ writing about stimulants on the job. shoot me a message if you want to chat about this.
Prior to my ADHD diagnosis, I was taking a combo of Sudafed and caffeine. So many stimulants to choose from. Now I take 10mg amphetamine salt instants. I break them in half if I want 5mg or 15mg doses. I don't like taking more than I need because it messes up my eating habits and sleep.
25mg addy extended in the morning and 12.5mg instant for afternoon. Thinking of bumping down cuz it makes me shit too much and i also have cut some weight so I’m too wired sometimes if that makes any sense
how do you fall asleep?
I tried to get some from my psychiatrist when studying for the MCAT, but was denied because I don’t have ADHD.
You’ve got the wrong DR buddy..
Just gotta fidget around with your hands and look around the office aimlessly as you talk to them
10+ years ago before there were apps for these things, I doctored a story with a shrink to get adderall and was told I might have autism. No adderall received.
I don't need amphetamines to do my job.
EDIT: Yes, throw MS at me. Same crew that's afraid of Western medicine and vaccines but recreationally uses uppers to focus at their air conditioned desk job.
Using adderall to perform the basic functions of IB sounds like a skill issue
I don't think you understand the underlying aspects of dealing with life with ADHD. I used to date this chick with severe ADHD and sometimes she was out of the drug and couldn't even get dressed. She would sit on the side of the bed and say "I need to get ready." And she would do nothing. I'm like - yo bruh just take your clothes off the hangar and get dressed. She said "I can't" and just sat on the edge of the bed in a trance. The tasks you think are easy without ADHD are nearly impossible if you have ADHD.
Never used it, was scared of side effects. Continued use of it without a prescription can be a recipe for disaster. Ex did this as a pre-med student and admitted that she often had brain fog after she used it to cram / take exam. It can really fuck you up if you become overreliant on it.
Horrible idea. It’s awful for your heart and becoming reliant on any type of drug to work hard isn’t a good idea
