Me with ADHD I don't take it on the weekends either because I just want to be myself too. When I'm on my meds I'm super quiet and calm, im not my outgoing silly self. And it's okay if im not productive on the weekends, and im disorganized/anxious, moody and forgetful. I would say I shud take it on the weekends like my psych said because it helps a lot with my impulse control, which I really need on things that interest me lol and on the things I listed above. But nope I leave it out on weekends.
I don’t take it on weekends! I enjoy the break because I need it. I don’t do much on the weekends so I like to relax and feel like myself lol. I agree you can feel it for sure when you give your body a break. I had to stop drinking coffee too. I drink it on weekends on break too. Adderall changed my life. It boosts my memory I can remember everything I study with adderall. I was able to pass my board exams and write papers in two hours that would take me probably 6-7 hrs. Lol. A break from adderall is necessary for me. 🥰
Adderall, lsd and psilocybin containing mushroom are amazing. I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with cptsd. Spent my whole life fighting cptsd. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Yes he's Dr.alishrooms.Shrooms to me is a natrual healer. I know a guy who has used mushrooms in the same way and they have really helped him. mah dudes have safe trips all.
wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later,
I don’t take my Adderall on the weekends for exactly the same reasons you dont. Its also a wild act of self love rebellion to want to be the unmedicated person you are. How lucky are we that we can choose to take our meds as we see fit? Its not like that with other meds❤️
I am getting my prescription in 2 days. I cant wait to se if it makes my head calm down. Ive been like this for 28 years. I can't wait for a break, some calm. I see medicin as a 10% fix to actually get where I need to be. The rest 90% is all about taking care of yourself and find structure in ones daily life.
Yaaasss!!! This is totally true! :) The medication does help but it's only a small portion of overall treatment and management of ADHD, I hope it goes really well for you tho, drop me a comment in a few days and let me know ! :)
@@christophersurnname9967 it has helped so much! Its insane, I can now keep thoughts in my head even if I get abrupted. And I couldn't imagine studying without it now. People can tell that I am more focused and present. But I don't take them on the weekends because of everything this guy says in the video above. Vyvanse was the best one btw, for me atleast. I am looking forward to stop taking them as frekvent though... I don't see myself putting that much strain on my heart/body/mind when I'm 60. I also wanna keep my own teeth for as long as possible. Haha
@@a4c01 yup! Although I try to only take them when I need to. It feels like my mind has gotten more used to thinking in a diffrent way, not as impulsivly. Like my brain created stronger connections after taking the drugs. I am better at for example solving mathematical problem where I don't get instant rewards in the form of dopamine and so on.
I really resonated with this! Especially when you said sometimes you just want to be you for a bit. I feel like sometimes I lose myself in the Adderall - I am always focusing on things I have to do instead of just enjoying life. Thanks for the video!
If you can actually focus on things you need to do 7 days a week, is it possible that it's your life that needs to be rearranged, more than the meds? Humans aren't meant to be under the gun 7 days a week. Right now I need to focus 7 days a week but I know that is not healthy or realistic long term. I am medicated and it has gotten me a long way to having the clear-headed ness to realize what needs to change and seek ways to make that change. I do mega appreciate the medication and am so thankful for it, but I wouldn't need it nearly as much if we weren't forced into this unnatural system.
The only problem I have with stopping on weekends is I binge eat… I do not under restrict myself when I’m on it.. I love the break I get or feel on the weekends. I just gotta figure out how to control the binge.
I’m 19 and only on my 3rd month of adderall, and it’s helping a lot! I didn’t realize not taking it in the weekends was an option, but I’ll definitely keep it in mind for the future! Thanks for the info!
@Ethan yep, and unfortunately a lot of people are misdiagnosed with adhd just because they can't focus or don't show interest in school work. Putting them on adderall changes their brain chemistry and dopamine levels. If they try to stop it's hell because your brain was so used to having dopamine given to it from adderall that it stops making it by itself without it. You basically become addicted to the meds and can't function without them
Usually I feel it takes about a day for it to wear out, so I decided to take a 3 day break starting on Fridays. Mainly for tolerance reasons as well. Good thing is that I still feel it on Fridays no so I'm good at work.
All of this totally hit home more than I expected when I clicked on the notification. I think I’m definitely going to stop it on my days off now. Been debating it for a little while. Mainly because of wanting to enjoy caffeine, and also just be myself like you were saying
This is something I've just started considering. You see, pre-meds me had become kind of a wreck, and nearly lost everything. In many ways, I feel like I have a lifetime of 'unfocused' (or 'wrongly focused') to atone for. There are so many things that need doing around me that I feel the need to be just as productive on the weekends. On the upside, I no longer feel the need to do the ENTIRE list on Saturday. I'm learning to be selective. I am learning to prioritize. I am terrified of becoming resistant to Vyvanse. Adderall did not work for me, so if the V quits working, I will have a tough time.
My days off are more important to me than my work days. I’d rather take it on weekends in order to enjoy my hobbies and take care of errands and housework that I would otherwise procrastinate. I’ll happily sacrifice productivity at work for a couple days than sacrifice my free time. 😁
I love that! I love who I am, I love all these ideas and plans and unique outlooks, I love that. I need help with following through fully on AT LEAST TWO! But I never want to lose that spark of creativity and imaginative landscapes I created for myself.
I love your channel! I just got diagnosed a week ago and have been on Adderall for a couple of days. I have noticed a big difference. I relate to do much of your story.
l love this episode! " sometimes i would like to be my ADHD SELF" this is so true. i was diagnosed really late and sometimes i miss being my crazy self.
Hello! I am a younger viewer and I have diagnosed ADHD, I feel your videos help me soo much. Oh I almost forgot, I don't take my Meds on weekend either! :)
This is so interesting to see. I’ve been taking my medications since I was about 16, I think? I’m currently 26, wow so 10 years already!? I am currently taking 90mg 3 times a day, 2 in the am and then 1 later on in the day. Over the years I’ve definitely built up a tolerance at times and asked for an increase of dosage, to eventually get me to where I am now, and it never occurred to me to take breaks on the weekends to help with that!
Normal ppl can bringe watch and relax all day and at the same time be in work mode in between those activities. If you're only in work mode when on Adderall. It's supposed to calm you down and even you out. I can chill all day and do nothing on Adderall. I'm not automatically in work mode. But I can compartmentalize and turn on the work mode at will on Adderall which I can't when I don't take it. You should go to a neurologist and get brain scans and tests done to confirm that you actually have ADHD.
I take weekends off. I also take lexapro 20mg everyday and clonodine 0.4mg nightly, the Adderall works best when I have work to do, otherwise I like being able to daydream and be able to start different things, even if I never go back to them. I also found that I’m more irritable about sensory stuff. I don’t like to be around people when I’m not on my Adderall as it drives me nuts that some people talk so much I can’t stay focused in their conversation for too long. I also get really stimulated in noisy or crowded areas, so on weekends I avoid people and places that are overstimulation.
I used to take weekend breaks on Adderall for about 15 years, but had to stop taking breaks because it’s prescribed in part to help my mood. now if I go a day without it, I am so exhausted. By day two, I can’t get out of bed. I feel trapped. I’m prescribed 10 mg twice a day Which is not a very high dose, but taking any less or skipping a day entirely renders me useless and depressed
I want to take breaks on the weekends but I've been having pretty bad withdrawals. Low energy, muscle aches, almost s craving feeling. Anybody else have this problem? Taking a fairly low dose of anywhere from 5-10mg daily.
I can 90% relate to this video I also dont take it on weekend because of 1. Tolerance 2. Im way more creative and happy 3. Im just myselfe And i take coffein all the time when I am on adderall, ritalin or concerta and I just noticed that the tunnelvision is caused by this combination... thx for helping me😅🤫
I’bjustvstarted back on Adderall after being off it for 9 years. My ADHD got so sever that my life was out of control. I’m on 10 mg of the XR in the morning and then 10 mg of the IR late afternoon. It is helping but I think I need to do a slight increase of 5 mg in the XR I take in the morning. In the past when on it I took weekends off because like you shared in your video I wanted s break and to just be ADHD Matthew. I’ve decided that’s what I’m going to do again. After I take my afternoon dose of the IR I get tired, just like yesterday about 40 minutes after doing my late afternoon dose I ended up laying down and falling asleep for 3 1/2 hours. It had this effect on me years ago when I first started on it, I feel my body is going through an adjustment period with it. I am way calmer and focused when on it and it has stopped my extreme impulsiveness along with emotional blow ups. Great video by the way, starting this weekend I will be taking my breaks from it.
Hey thanks :) I hope it works out for you friend! It's a bit of a pain re adjusting to medications like Adderall because you have to find the right dosage but it sounds like you know what's up and you are on your way to getting yourself back on track! I tend to get pretty tired in the afternoons too so I feel you there 😭
I aim for breaks in the weekends, especiallly so since I'm on 60mg/day. Compared to all other stims-Adderall is like having a Terminator in my system-it levels the playingfield and builds empires.. 😎
@@alsaraa2724 with the max dose of A@60mg, I try my best to keep the tolerance at bay by observing treatment with a proper diet, 0 alcohol, sleep & sleep hygiene as well as with carefully selected nootropics like multivits, L-tyrosine and cdp-choline. Sometimes also 5-Htp, which works its wonder if my migraine kicks in. Of overall importance in damage-reduction, is to keep the DA receptor-sensitivity from being reduced. And I believe my above-mentioned ideas, aid in doing this. Adderall has tremendous power and so it demands something in return for its service😎
Me with ADHD I’m reacting very similar to what all your videos are saying so I think it’s going to work out great. :) the first couple days were intense and then now it’s just helping calm my mind. I’m not as exhausted from trying to work so hard to calm the mind to work or function. :)
Howard Li it’s really helpful for concentration and memory. I take a “break” on Saturdays since I don’t need the extra focus. So far I feel like Adderall has been really helpful for my ADHD.
when on my ADHD meds, I feel kinda intense(serious sort of). I account for every second and I don't feel comfortable wasting time. I like wasting time on weekends and doing stuff that I like , so going off meds on a weekend feels kinda nice
@@nik1128 if you have to ask then it probably is. If you are drinking on ritalin then that shows that you don't have adhd and you're abusing your drugs.
*sigh*. I just started my 15 mg doses two weeks ago and the first four days were absolutely incredible! Then by the next week they stopped working entirely and they have not worked even after my tolerance break this weekend.
Do not go down the train of dosage increases. It's a very slippery slope and your brain, heart and liver will thank you. Not one CNS stimulant will ALWAYS work. every single one, due to their chemical nature, will stop being effective after about 4-6 days. Dr. K has a great video explaining what it does to your brain. If taking a break for 2 days doesnt help, take a longer break. The same thing is going to happen at 20, at 30, at 35, at 40, at 60. etc. You'll just explode your brains happy juice maker before 10 years going down that road. r/ADHD has countless people who've said you have about 10-12 years before you're fucked and completely depressed and broken. But for now, use it as a tool, equip yourself with a skillset to use without it, so you can quit the shit. Just read the comment below this one..... from KB Collision "I used to take weekend breaks on Adderall for about 15 years, but had to stop taking breaks because it’s prescribed in part to help my mood. now if I go a day without it, I am so exhausted. By day two, I can’t get out of bed. I feel trapped. I’m prescribed 10 mg twice a day Which is not a very high dose, but taking any less or skipping a day entirely renders me useless and depressed"
I was diagnosed last week, today is my first day on 10mg . Didn’t feel much of anything all day, a little quieter I guess. Thoughts still running amuck, and easily distracted like always. Next visit is in 2 weeks 😕
I agree, but DONT NOT TAKE ANIT DEPRESSANTS!!! YOU NEED TO TAKE THOESE EVERY DAY YOU REMEMBER!!! I say this just so that no one thinks they can stop taking an anti depressant for a few days. Cuz it can (and for me did) make you suicidal, and worsen the diagnosis (wether that be anxiety or depression). Always check with your doc before switching medication routines!! Hope this helps someone! 😊
From treating depression to helping manage alcohol addiction," magic mushrooms and the microdosing caps have many potential benefits description to order for your well treated psilocybin mushrooms and other psychedelic,they provide in town/ local and overseas delivery (All discreet)-
I started aduvanz (you call it elvanse I think) this week and I’m in love, I liked Ritalin too but wanted the benefit of taking it only once and not twice a day, but down side with aduvanz i feel at least is that I almost feel like I have to set my alarm clock on the weekends as well or else I’m afraid it won’t stop working when I’m going to sleep so a break in the weekend sounds smart...
I am 48 and started 5 days ago. Of course i love myself and don’t want to be perfect all 7 days.it’s a lifesaver, but it does change you. I had to take it because of work. I have learnt to manage my brain with neurological tricks and therapy , so in my free time, it will work fine. But work , no., insufficient attention,
I don't know if everyone deals with this, but I know ADHDers have more dramatic mood swings. For me those mood swings more often then not made me angry and crabby so if I miss my Adderall for more than a day I get irritable and my fiance can't stand me. Does anyone else deal with these mood swings and have ideas on how to deal with them?
I deal with this also! Not as much from not talking Adderall tho, I just get the mood swings in general and it's kind of tough :( I don't have a a definitive answer on how to cope with them it's just something I try to be more aware of and stop it in the moment
@@eryp7335 Hmm, I think what our friend E Ryp is trying to say is the following. Concerning both males and females, emotional control is incredibly important. Here's a hypothetical example, yesterday your druggie buddy was very generous in his/her own weird way and gave you three grams of shrooms. It's now the weekend and against your better judgement you've hammered back all three grams, big mistake. It's now two hours after the point that you've said 'mushrooms ain't shit' and you notice that your TV really is starting to melt. There's no social pressure, nobody's around but you are nonetheless... uncomfortable with your altered state of perception. So like the priest in the movie Constantine, you realise that you need to drink something, but unlike him you decide to simultaneously take a shower. You don't have a liquor store handy so you are standing in your shower fully clothed guzzling the shower water because it will flush and wash the shroom demon out of you, but no matter how much you drink you still feel empty. Then it hits you, BAM, and you think 'hey, these shrooms are screwing with my emotions, ruining my day, and attempting to rupture my stomach with shower water. I need to take back my lost emotional control', deep breath in/exhale. Ignoring the hallucinations like they are simply an invasive background light show you slip into some dryer clothes and resume watching Popeye the sailor man staring Robyn Williams. Now you're smiling, because you realize you had a legit psychic premonition when you claimed that mushrooms weren't shit because past-you knew that you would overcome the emotional attack of the Shroom Demon, it was all in your head. End of example - this probably didn't help at all did it?
Thanks so much for your videos on Adhd and your medication journey. They help me so much. I also stopped taking my medication (low dose also) on the weekend but I feel so tired. Does this happen to you?
@@edihayat it's not safe at all and should not be taken everyday. You should discontinue use ASAP because you got about 10-12 years before you become a clinically diagnosed very depressed mess with their happy juice maker in their brain completely blown to pieces. Use it as a tool now WITH therapy so you build those behaviors and external environmental mechanisms that help you throughout the day without the addy so you can quit this terrible shit
Thank you for all of your knowledge and advice! I take weekends off sometimes now, or I’ll take my medication every other day depending on when I need it.
@@shahanabdullah3319 Lol it’s really nothing special if you don’t have ADHD. If you take a regular dose you probably won’t feel much, and if you take a lot, you’ll have a horrible come down that will make you regret ever doing it in the first place. You’re also not supposed to drink on it, it’s really bad for your heart and liver.
Really having to catch up on these , apologies , hope you are well , I find if I don't take my medication the following morning I am physically exhausted and can't get out of bed without lying there for ages , I have never been the sort of person to jump out of bed anyway but there is definitely a difference , As I have mentioned before I am on a different drug Elvanse , I have a lot of respect for you Chris , as I say I really fall behind with watching your great videos , you must have to really focus to produce them !
Thanks mate! I really appreciate you saying that! It's when you guys comment like this that I end up wanting to produce more content :) I totally feel you on the lying in bed thing, some Saturdays I just don't even wanna get up at all lol, good to see you back in the comments tho mate! :)
4:30 - just wanting to be you. I wish I could do this but I take Atomoxetine which you probably know stays in your system for a while after you stop taking it so I can't just take a break, unfortunately. So I am thinking about coming down on a dose. I've really praised meds but I've been having these feelings that I can't ignore anymore but I don't know what to do about it. I'm worried about the impact it will have on work for me because I am in a job where precision is really important.
When I take Adderall, it feels like being PUSHED onto a moving walkway at the airport - being forced to go faster than I want to (add makes me slow as molasses). So I quit weekends so I could just exist without feeling pushed.
I've recently gone to a psychiatrist and seen her once. She told me she thinks i had pdd with autism/adhd. Im taking these dexedrin 12 tablets a day and i cant focus, think, sleep and remember.
So stop. You obviously don't have ADHD. Don't know about the others, but stop the stims man. Find another psych. She just wants to get you out the door and get money from your insurance. Just like mine! But I love mine lol. She's open about wanting my insurances money and I'm happy to give it to her. We laugh.
I am on Vyvanse, I started out at 20 mg, now on 30 mg. I definitely take drug holidays. On the days I don't take meds I find l am less productive but I feel more like myself.
same with me. I take ritalin and have taken it almost every day for the past two weeks. Now I am a few days off. A drug holiday to me is very necessary. I have done it many times
4:15 why wouldnt you want to be just you all the time.... I was diagnosed in my early teens... took it until i was arround 18ish.... then went on to university without it -> rough times but i pulled through. Now i struggle badly in my jobs and it makes me wonder.... but the other way. Should i take a heavy drug like adderall to fit into the system or leave it and work something else that suits me better... because outside of work environments I am happy with myself. WDYT?
I took the first one yesterday a extended release 30mg and I was up from 9 that morning till 5 in the morning and only was able to sleep two hours so I took half today
im concerned when I make my coffee. I want to smoke MJ. and I get coffee crash and I take my meds before noon. and by night im drinking and smoking. it doesnt hurt. but I worry my heart will stop and I feel I cant get anything done.
when you say stop taking coffee is there a reason you cant drink decaff and do you mean even granulated jar stuff? I am starting the journey of meds and Im REALLY sensitive to caffeine and energy drinks (I avoid the latter unless doing sports or going on stage), but love the taste of coffee so surely ground decaff would work?
I can't wait for your videos ,however I'm 4 behind ! Will catch up this week . I had a classic ADHD experience this week where I confused the slow cooker and the pressure cooker and prepared dinner 5 hrs early !
I take 1-2 days off on the weekend. Usually 1 day off. I’ve noticed when I get to the 2nd day- I feel like I’m going through withdrawal & can’t do anything. I love drinking coffee with mine, but I’m only on 10mg. On occasion, I’ll bump up to 15mg. I usually don’t drink coffee everyday. I drink more tea. Coffee is usually a few times a week.
For me, taking adderall during the weekend is bad because I won’t stop drinking when I start. Edit: not to mention mine are 30 mg and once I get a buzz, I end up taking another one. Yep, 60+ mg of amphetamines and beer after beer 😃🤙🏼.....
I actually only take it on the weekends. Because I work in a restaurant on the weekends and it helps me. I do not take it during the week. Trying to investigate if that is not a good thing to do.
I got per scripted Adderall because I have ADD. I've been taking one 10mg a day for 3 years and I stopped taking it for 6 days and had extreme side effects like anxiety and depression it made me feel brain fogged like I was on autopilot mode I couldn't focus. I asked my doctor to wing me off of it. Will I still have side effects while getting winged off or after I get winged off? if so for how long?
Um I drink coffee and occasional drinking alcohol is that bad? I know people who take 90mg a day, suboxone, xanax, drink and smoke so I guess since they aren't dead I have no worries since I don't abuse it. Lol I will be taking weekends off soon because I've been taking it so long that I forgot what It felt like w/o it and thats not good if your trying to stay healthy and balanced.
This might seem like a bit of a strange comment, but I'm from the UK and I can detect a slight Midlands or Northern UK accent. Am I delusional, or did you move from the UK to the US at some point?
I take weekends off as well If I don't after about 3 months it will stop working which for school is normally when I need it the most. During the weekends though I rarely feel like doing anything and I just sit around all day. Do you have any idea for activities to do when focus levels are so low?
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, i have a very important question: do you plan to take adderal for the rest of your life? Dont you fear to stop it? Dont you think is dangerous for your healt?
Hey :) your welcome! Thanks for watching! I have no plans to stop taking it, I take a relatively low dosage and I take only the prescribed amount from the doctor so I'm not worried too much :)
@@Djr2699 not really, I tend to get a little tired if I don't take it but i usually have a coffee and feel pretty good, most doctors recommend you take a break on weekends every now and again
You don't get depress when off your Adderall? They have me on 45mg IR a day. 7 years on.....is depression normal coming off Adderall? Adderall the VA has me on for ADD and to control chronic depression...medical Marijuana and Adderall only 2 drugs i am on not ......I do not even drink anymore because of my depression.
So I don't have to lose keys and be anxious during the week but on the weekends i do?? No thanks. Yah caffeine makes you awake and energized and that's what Adderall does too.
Completely opposite from you w the caffeine. When I take adderall, I typically indulge in large amounts of caffeine to help the adderall take more Of an effect. Combining 30mg XRs with 200-300mg of caffeine is typical for me. Probably not good for my heart
I know you probably won’t respond to me but I don’t ever not want to be on aderall because when I’m off of it when school is out I am a lazy piece of crap
I stopped to save my pills because I can’t refill my meds until I run out. Fucking insurance. If I can’t get to the pharmacy on that day, at least I have some saved pills. If I don’t have a stash, I get anxious I’ll run completely out.
I take Vyvanse for my ADHD i like taking a Breck from them on the weekends or sometimes on my days off but you got any tips for the unconterble felling you get ik everyone's different but i take mine around 7 8 in the morning and around 3 to 4 ish I get the unconterble and I feel pissed off kinda or achated I really don't like that felling but sorry this is long hopefully you got some tips that might help me
Me with ADHD. I’ll discuss this with my psychiatrist because I was on 20 MG and I felt normal but then It started wearing off like you said in the video. They bumped it up to 30 but now I’m having really bad anxiety from it. I had to take a week break from it now because the anxiety was so bad. However I feel so lethargic without the medication. Caffeine was another problem for me too because I love drinking diet soda. This video really helped me out a lot. I know what you mean when you want to have days when you just want to feel you and not think about working. Thanks for getting back to me!!
So do you guys take your medication on weekends? :)
Me with ADHD I don't take it on the weekends either because I just want to be myself too. When I'm on my meds I'm super quiet and calm, im not my outgoing silly self. And it's okay if im not productive on the weekends, and im disorganized/anxious, moody and forgetful. I would say I shud take it on the weekends like my psych said because it helps a lot with my impulse control, which I really need on things that interest me lol and on the things I listed above. But nope I leave it out on weekends.
I think it's good every now and again to just be yourself and give your brain a rest yanno? :)
I don’t take it on weekends! I enjoy the break because I need it. I don’t do much on the weekends so I like to relax and feel like myself lol. I agree you can feel it for sure when you give your body a break. I had to stop drinking coffee too. I drink it on weekends on break too. Adderall changed my life. It boosts my memory I can remember everything I study with adderall. I was able to pass my board exams and write papers in two hours that would take me probably 6-7 hrs. Lol. A break from adderall is necessary for me. 🥰
im on stress medication so I don't think I have the same option! hahah! XD
I take my meds every single day. If I don’t, life gets all sucky.
Adderall, lsd and psilocybin containing mushroom are amazing. I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with cptsd. Spent my whole life fighting cptsd. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
Yes he's Dr.alishrooms.Shrooms to me is a natrual healer. I know a guy who has used mushrooms in the same way and they have really helped him. mah dudes have safe trips all.
wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later,
I don’t take my Adderall on the weekends for exactly the same reasons you dont. Its also a wild act of self love rebellion to want to be the unmedicated person you are. How lucky are we that we can choose to take our meds as we see fit? Its not like that with other meds❤️
Wow, yr super cute!!
You are very lucky! Props to you for seeing it that way!
I am getting my prescription in 2 days. I cant wait to se if it makes my head calm down. Ive been like this for 28 years. I can't wait for a break, some calm. I see medicin as a 10% fix to actually get where I need to be. The rest 90% is all about taking care of yourself and find structure in ones daily life.
Yaaasss!!! This is totally true! :) The medication does help but it's only a small portion of overall treatment and management of ADHD, I hope it goes really well for you tho, drop me a comment in a few days and let me know ! :)
Marie Domander how did you go?
@@christophersurnname9967 it has helped so much! Its insane, I can now keep thoughts in my head even if I get abrupted. And I couldn't imagine studying without it now. People can tell that I am more focused and present. But I don't take them on the weekends because of everything this guy says in the video above. Vyvanse was the best one btw, for me atleast. I am looking forward to stop taking them as frekvent though... I don't see myself putting that much strain on my heart/body/mind when I'm 60. I also wanna keep my own teeth for as long as possible. Haha
It's it working? I just started taking 30mg/day.
@@a4c01 yup! Although I try to only take them when I need to. It feels like my mind has gotten more used to thinking in a diffrent way, not as impulsivly. Like my brain created stronger connections after taking the drugs. I am better at for example solving mathematical problem where I don't get instant rewards in the form of dopamine and so on.
I really resonated with this! Especially when you said sometimes you just want to be you for a bit. I feel like sometimes I lose myself in the Adderall - I am always focusing on things I have to do instead of just enjoying life. Thanks for the video!
Dude wtf yeah lmfao, adderall me is a very different person.
If you can actually focus on things you need to do 7 days a week, is it possible that it's your life that needs to be rearranged, more than the meds? Humans aren't meant to be under the gun 7 days a week.
Right now I need to focus 7 days a week but I know that is not healthy or realistic long term. I am medicated and it has gotten me a long way to having the clear-headed ness to realize what needs to change and seek ways to make that change. I do mega appreciate the medication and am so thankful for it, but I wouldn't need it nearly as much if we weren't forced into this unnatural system.
The only problem I have with stopping on weekends is I binge eat… I do not under restrict myself when I’m on it.. I love the break I get or feel on the weekends. I just gotta figure out how to control the binge.
I struggle with the same issue - it’s def a form of self-medication for me
I drink ketones on the weekends gives you energy and suppresses appetite
I’m 19 and only on my 3rd month of adderall, and it’s helping a lot! I didn’t realize not taking it in the weekends was an option, but I’ll definitely keep it in mind for the future! Thanks for the info!
@Ethan yep, and unfortunately a lot of people are misdiagnosed with adhd just because they can't focus or don't show interest in school work. Putting them on adderall changes their brain chemistry and dopamine levels. If they try to stop it's hell because your brain was so used to having dopamine given to it from adderall that it stops making it by itself without it. You basically become addicted to the meds and can't function without them
I just stopped taking my meds on the weekend last week and it’s been really great. Plus I can drink coffee on the weekends too 🤗🥳
Usually I feel it takes about a day for it to wear out, so I decided to take a 3 day break starting on Fridays. Mainly for tolerance reasons as well. Good thing is that I still feel it on Fridays no so I'm good at work.
All of this totally hit home more than I expected when I clicked on the notification. I think I’m definitely going to stop it on my days off now. Been debating it for a little while. Mainly because of wanting to enjoy caffeine, and also just be myself like you were saying
Yeah you totally should! See how it feels for you and go from there :) and drink all the coffee! #wewantcoffee!
This is something I've just started considering. You see, pre-meds me had become kind of a wreck, and nearly lost everything. In many ways, I feel like I have a lifetime of 'unfocused' (or 'wrongly focused') to atone for. There are so many things that need doing around me that I feel the need to be just as productive on the weekends. On the upside, I no longer feel the need to do the ENTIRE list on Saturday. I'm learning to be selective. I am learning to prioritize.
I am terrified of becoming resistant to Vyvanse. Adderall did not work for me, so if the V quits working, I will have a tough time.
Mydayis is better than vyvanse!
My days off are more important to me than my work days. I’d rather take it on weekends in order to enjoy my hobbies and take care of errands and housework that I would otherwise procrastinate. I’ll happily sacrifice productivity at work for a couple days than sacrifice my free time. 😁
That’s what Mondays and Fridays are for lol #nomeds
Same with me 😂😂😂 I’ll give up being productive at work happily. Lol
Great advice. The adrenal fatigue is so real, and if you keep taking it you risk needing increase in dosage to the point it may not work as well.
I love that! I love who I am, I love all these ideas and plans and unique outlooks, I love that. I need help with following through fully on AT LEAST TWO! But I never want to lose that spark of creativity and imaginative landscapes I created for myself.
I love your channel! I just got diagnosed a week ago and have been on Adderall for a couple of days. I have noticed a big difference. I relate to do much of your story.
l love this episode! " sometimes i would like to be my ADHD SELF" this is so true. i was diagnosed really late and sometimes i miss being my crazy self.
Hello! I am a younger viewer and I have diagnosed ADHD, I feel your videos help me soo much. Oh I almost forgot, I don't take my Meds on weekend either! :)
This is so interesting to see. I’ve been taking my medications since I was about 16, I think? I’m currently 26, wow so 10 years already!? I am currently taking 90mg 3 times a day, 2 in the am and then 1 later on in the day. Over the years I’ve definitely built up a tolerance at times and asked for an increase of dosage, to eventually get me to where I am now, and it never occurred to me to take breaks on the weekends to help with that!
90mg a day is a crazy dose fda recommends max dose of 40mg per day
90mg sounds like u need a new dr. That is insane.
Normal ppl can bringe watch and relax all day and at the same time be in work mode in between those activities. If you're only in work mode when on Adderall. It's supposed to calm you down and even you out. I can chill all day and do nothing on Adderall. I'm not automatically in work mode. But I can compartmentalize and turn on the work mode at will on Adderall which I can't when I don't take it. You should go to a neurologist and get brain scans and tests done to confirm that you actually have ADHD.
I take weekends off. I also take lexapro 20mg everyday and clonodine 0.4mg nightly, the Adderall works best when I have work to do, otherwise I like being able to daydream and be able to start different things, even if I never go back to them. I also found that I’m more irritable about sensory stuff. I don’t like to be around people when I’m not on my Adderall as it drives me nuts that some people talk so much I can’t stay focused in their conversation for too long. I also get really stimulated in noisy or crowded areas, so on weekends I avoid people and places that are overstimulation.
I used to take weekend breaks on Adderall for about 15 years, but had to stop taking breaks because it’s prescribed in part to help my mood. now if I go a day without it, I am so exhausted. By day two, I can’t get out of bed. I feel trapped. I’m prescribed 10 mg twice a day Which is not a very high dose, but taking any less or skipping a day entirely renders me useless and depressed
I want to take breaks on the weekends but I've been having pretty bad withdrawals. Low energy, muscle aches, almost s craving feeling. Anybody else have this problem? Taking a fairly low dose of anywhere from 5-10mg daily.
Yes. My nose burns and I have migraines. Stopping on the weekend is not really an option. 10mg 2x per day.
Have you started a support group yet??? To some, it may seem silly, but I feel certain that MANY would second the motion and be a part of it❤
@ JUMASTRI
THEY ON TELEGRAM
Tolerance is everything. Take breaks regularly.
I can 90% relate to this video
I also dont take it on weekend because of
1. Tolerance
2. Im way more creative and happy
3. Im just myselfe
And i take coffein all the time when I am on adderall, ritalin or concerta and I just noticed that the tunnelvision is caused by this combination... thx for helping me😅🤫
Coffee causes the tunnel vision, I couldn’t figure it out, thanks
I’bjustvstarted back on Adderall after being off it for 9 years. My ADHD got so sever that my life was out of control. I’m on 10 mg of the XR in the morning and then 10 mg of the IR late afternoon. It is helping but I think I need to do a slight increase of 5 mg in the XR I take in the morning. In the past when on it I took weekends off because like you shared in your video I wanted s break and to just be ADHD Matthew. I’ve decided that’s what I’m going to do again. After I take my afternoon dose of the IR I get tired, just like yesterday about 40 minutes after doing my late afternoon dose I ended up laying down and falling asleep for 3 1/2 hours. It had this effect on me years ago when I first started on it, I feel my body is going through an adjustment period with it. I am way calmer and focused when on it and it has stopped my extreme impulsiveness along with emotional blow ups.
Great video by the way, starting this weekend I will be taking my breaks from it.
Hey thanks :) I hope it works out for you friend! It's a bit of a pain re adjusting to medications like Adderall because you have to find the right dosage but it sounds like you know what's up and you are on your way to getting yourself back on track! I tend to get pretty tired in the afternoons too so I feel you there 😭
I aim for breaks in the weekends, especiallly so since I'm on 60mg/day. Compared to all other stims-Adderall is like having a Terminator in my system-it levels the playingfield and builds empires.. 😎
How long have you been taking 60mg?
@@alsaraa2724 two months, why?
@@00042 I was wondering how long it takes to develop a tolerance to a high dosage
@@alsaraa2724 with the max dose of A@60mg, I try my best to keep the tolerance at bay by observing treatment with a proper diet, 0 alcohol, sleep & sleep hygiene as well as with carefully selected nootropics like multivits, L-tyrosine and cdp-choline. Sometimes also 5-Htp, which works its wonder if my migraine kicks in. Of overall importance in damage-reduction, is to keep the DA receptor-sensitivity from being reduced. And I believe my above-mentioned ideas, aid in doing this. Adderall has tremendous power and so it demands something in return for its service😎
@@00042 how is cdp-choline working for you
Thank you for these videos. It's very helpful. I started Adderall a couple weeks ago.
How is it working out for you?
Me with ADHD I’m reacting very similar to what all your videos are saying so I think it’s going to work out great. :) the first couple days were intense and then now it’s just helping calm my mind. I’m not as exhausted from trying to work so hard to calm the mind to work or function. :)
Hows it now?
Howard Li it’s really helpful for concentration and memory. I take a “break” on Saturdays since I don’t need the extra focus. So far I feel like Adderall has been really helpful for my ADHD.
@@samsula123 Ey thanks for the reply bud
when on my ADHD meds, I feel kinda intense(serious sort of). I account for every second and I don't feel comfortable wasting time. I like wasting time on weekends and doing stuff that I like , so going off meds on a weekend feels kinda nice
weekends off helps but it doesn't prevent tolerance building...
Sometimes I just wanna drink so I stop on Friday’s
Same here
I drink on ritalin all the time, that bad? lol
@@nik1128 it’s fun isn’t it? Lol
@@nik1128 if you have to ask then it probably is. If you are drinking on ritalin then that shows that you don't have adhd and you're abusing your drugs.
@@missvida6251 oh, ok I guess the 2 mental diagnoses by professionals telling me I have severe adhd were just lying. Good to know 😌
*sigh*. I just started my 15 mg doses two weeks ago and the first four days were absolutely incredible! Then by the next week they stopped working entirely and they have not worked even after my tolerance break this weekend.
Def ask your doctor for 30mg
I'm late to this but this means the dose is too low
Do not go down the train of dosage increases. It's a very slippery slope and your brain, heart and liver will thank you. Not one CNS stimulant will ALWAYS work. every single one, due to their chemical nature, will stop being effective after about 4-6 days. Dr. K has a great video explaining what it does to your brain. If taking a break for 2 days doesnt help, take a longer break. The same thing is going to happen at 20, at 30, at 35, at 40, at 60. etc. You'll just explode your brains happy juice maker before 10 years going down that road. r/ADHD has countless people who've said you have about 10-12 years before you're fucked and completely depressed and broken. But for now, use it as a tool, equip yourself with a skillset to use without it, so you can quit the shit.
Just read the comment below this one..... from KB Collision

Thank you for the advice because I’m about to start & I already was thinking about not taking it on the weekends.
I was diagnosed last week, today is my first day on 10mg .
Didn’t feel much of anything all day, a little quieter I guess. Thoughts still running amuck, and easily distracted like always.
Next visit is in 2 weeks 😕
I agree, but DONT NOT TAKE ANIT DEPRESSANTS!!! YOU NEED TO TAKE THOESE EVERY DAY YOU REMEMBER!!! I say this just so that no one thinks they can stop taking an anti depressant for a few days. Cuz it can (and for me did) make you suicidal, and worsen the diagnosis (wether that be anxiety or depression). Always check with your doc before switching medication routines!!
Hope this helps someone! 😊

I started aduvanz (you call it elvanse I think) this week and I’m in love, I liked Ritalin too but wanted the benefit of taking it only once and not twice a day, but down side with aduvanz i feel at least is that I almost feel like I have to set my alarm clock on the weekends as well or else I’m afraid it won’t stop working when I’m going to sleep so a break in the weekend sounds smart...
I am 48 and started 5 days ago. Of course i love myself and don’t want to be perfect all 7 days.it’s a lifesaver, but it does change you. I had to take it because of work. I have learnt to manage my brain with neurological tricks and therapy , so in my free time, it will work fine. But work , no., insufficient attention,
I don’t take the Adderall on the weekends because the Psychiatrist that prescribed it suggested (repeatedly) that I don’t take it.

I don't know if everyone deals with this, but I know ADHDers have more dramatic mood swings. For me those mood swings more often then not made me angry and crabby so if I miss my Adderall for more than a day I get irritable and my fiance can't stand me. Does anyone else deal with these mood swings and have ideas on how to deal with them?
I deal with this also! Not as much from not talking Adderall tho, I just get the mood swings in general and it's kind of tough :( I don't have a a definitive answer on how to cope with them it's just something I try to be more aware of and stop it in the moment
stop being a little bitch, and handle it
@@eryp7335 Hmm, I think what our friend E Ryp is trying to say is the following. Concerning both males and females, emotional control is incredibly important. Here's a hypothetical example, yesterday your druggie buddy was very generous in his/her own weird way and gave you three grams of shrooms. It's now the weekend and against your better judgement you've hammered back all three grams, big mistake. It's now two hours after the point that you've said 'mushrooms ain't shit' and you notice that your TV really is starting to melt. There's no social pressure, nobody's around but you are nonetheless... uncomfortable with your altered state of perception. So like the priest in the movie Constantine, you realise that you need to drink something, but unlike him you decide to simultaneously take a shower. You don't have a liquor store handy so you are standing in your shower fully clothed guzzling the shower water because it will flush and wash the shroom demon out of you, but no matter how much you drink you still feel empty. Then it hits you, BAM, and you think 'hey, these shrooms are screwing with my emotions, ruining my day, and attempting to rupture my stomach with shower water. I need to take back my lost emotional control', deep breath in/exhale. Ignoring the hallucinations like they are simply an invasive background light show you slip into some dryer clothes and resume watching Popeye the sailor man staring Robyn Williams. Now you're smiling, because you realize you had a legit psychic premonition when you claimed that mushrooms weren't shit because past-you knew that you would overcome the emotional attack of the Shroom Demon, it was all in your head. End of example - this probably didn't help at all did it?
Do possible girlfriend’s understand
Thanks so much for your videos on Adhd and your medication journey. They help me so much. I also stopped taking my medication (low dose also) on the weekend but I feel so tired. Does this happen to you?
Yes. Also having a hard time with this. Starting to make me really question the safety of this drug.
@@edihayat it's not safe at all and should not be taken everyday. You should discontinue use ASAP because you got about 10-12 years before you become a clinically diagnosed very depressed mess with their happy juice maker in their brain completely blown to pieces. Use it as a tool now WITH therapy so you build those behaviors and external environmental mechanisms that help you throughout the day without the addy so you can quit this terrible shit
Don’t you get withdrawals when you do that. Like next to no energy?
I do this but when I really have to work on Monday first thing, it didn't work right away.
I take random breaks because I can’t eat on it at all , but now I might be getting addreral crashes? Feel like shit sleep all day
Am i the only one who doesnt suffer the crashes? I do the same regiment with the same 15mg's. Love your vids bro!
Thanks man! :) Nah I don't really feel crashes that much either, I do so times but nowhere near as much as other people say they do
Ppl only get actual crashes when taking higher doses recreationally to get high or stay up for ages to work etc.
Thank you for all of your knowledge and advice! I take weekends off sometimes now, or I’ll take my medication every other day depending on when I need it.
@Johnny October that’s a good idea! Also a good choice if you like to have alcoholic beverages over the weekend 😬
Why can't I have adderall with a joint or a drink
I don't have adhd but I really feel like trying adderall
@@shahanabdullah3319 Lol it’s really nothing special if you don’t have ADHD. If you take a regular dose you probably won’t feel much, and if you take a lot, you’ll have a horrible come down that will make you regret ever doing it in the first place. You’re also not supposed to drink on it, it’s really bad for your heart and liver.
@@shahanabdullah3319 do not do that
Really having to catch up on these , apologies , hope you are well , I find if I don't take my medication the following morning I am physically exhausted and can't get out of bed without lying there for ages , I have never been the sort of person to jump out of bed anyway but there is definitely a difference , As I have mentioned before I am on a different drug Elvanse , I have a lot of respect for you Chris , as I say I really fall behind with watching your great videos , you must have to really focus to produce them !
Thanks mate! I really appreciate you saying that! It's when you guys comment like this that I end up wanting to produce more content :) I totally feel you on the lying in bed thing, some Saturdays I just don't even wanna get up at all lol, good to see you back in the comments tho mate! :)
4:30 - just wanting to be you. I wish I could do this but I take Atomoxetine which you probably know stays in your system for a while after you stop taking it so I can't just take a break, unfortunately. So I am thinking about coming down on a dose. I've really praised meds but I've been having these feelings that I can't ignore anymore but I don't know what to do about it. I'm worried about the impact it will have on work for me because I am in a job where precision is really important.
I stopped taking my meds im on day 3 so far feel good. I take vraylar, Zoloft, and buspirion. But i feel like they don't work anymore 😔
When I take Adderall, it feels like being PUSHED onto a moving walkway at the airport - being forced to go faster than I want to (add makes me slow as molasses). So I quit weekends so I could just exist without feeling pushed.
Can someone please tell me if taking caffeine BEFORE aderall reduces the aderall’s effectiveness?

I've recently gone to a psychiatrist and seen her once. She told me she thinks i had pdd with autism/adhd. Im taking these dexedrin 12 tablets a day and i cant focus, think, sleep and remember.
So stop. You obviously don't have ADHD. Don't know about the others, but stop the stims man. Find another psych. She just wants to get you out the door and get money from your insurance. Just like mine! But I love mine lol. She's open about wanting my insurances money and I'm happy to give it to her. We laugh.
I am on Vyvanse, I started out at 20 mg, now on 30 mg.
I definitely take drug holidays. On the days I don't take meds I find l am less productive but I feel more like myself.
same with me. I take ritalin and have taken it almost every day for the past two weeks. Now I am a few days off. A drug holiday to me is very necessary. I have done it many times
This video was helpful! I’m feel the same way where I love my coffee but can’t have coffee when on meds.
4:15 why wouldnt you want to be just you all the time.... I was diagnosed in my early teens... took it until i was arround 18ish.... then went on to university without it -> rough times but i pulled through. Now i struggle badly in my jobs and it makes me wonder.... but the other way. Should i take a heavy drug like adderall to fit into the system or leave it and work something else that suits me better... because outside of work environments I am happy with myself. WDYT?
I have been on it for one week. Just once a day. I am choosing the same. I would rather take something that I don't have to take every day
I took the first one yesterday a extended release 30mg and I was up from 9 that morning till 5 in the morning and only was able to sleep two hours so I took half today
I get tired when I drink coffee and take Adderal in the morning. Stoped the coffee and I don’t feel so drained. Weird.
im concerned when I make my coffee. I want to smoke MJ. and I get coffee crash and I take my meds before noon. and by night im drinking and smoking. it doesnt hurt. but I worry my heart will stop and I feel I cant get anything done.
when you say stop taking coffee is there a reason you cant drink decaff and do you mean even granulated jar stuff?
I am starting the journey of meds and Im REALLY sensitive to caffeine and energy drinks (I avoid the latter unless doing sports or going on stage), but love the taste of coffee so surely ground decaff would work?
My psychiatrist said that if it stops working, to take a break from it for awhile and then start again.
I can't wait for your videos ,however I'm 4 behind ! Will catch up this week . I had a classic ADHD experience this week where I confused the slow cooker and the pressure cooker and prepared dinner 5 hrs early !
Hey welcome back! :) Haha classic adhd! I would probably do the same thing! At least you were prepared! 😎
I take 1-2 days off on the weekend. Usually 1 day off. I’ve noticed when I get to the 2nd day- I feel like I’m going through withdrawal & can’t do anything. I love drinking coffee with mine, but I’m only on 10mg. On occasion, I’ll bump up to 15mg. I usually don’t drink coffee everyday. I drink more tea. Coffee is usually a few times a week.
For me, taking adderall during the weekend is bad because I won’t stop drinking when I start.
Edit: not to mention mine are 30 mg and once I get a buzz, I end up taking another one. Yep, 60+ mg of amphetamines and beer after beer 😃🤙🏼.....
well bud, you don't got much longer left with that routine.
The thing is, if I don’t take my medication every day my body will hurt and it will be painful
I actually only take it on the weekends. Because I work in a restaurant on the weekends and it helps me. I do not take it during the week. Trying to investigate if that is not a good thing to do.
I got per scripted Adderall because I have ADD. I've been taking one 10mg a day for 3 years and I stopped taking it for 6 days and had extreme side effects like anxiety and depression it made me feel brain fogged like I was on autopilot mode I couldn't focus. I asked my doctor to wing me off of it. Will I still have side effects while getting winged off or after I get winged off? if so for how long?
Brain fog on 10mg? Your problem is something else..
Um I drink coffee and occasional drinking alcohol is that bad? I know people who take 90mg a day, suboxone, xanax, drink and smoke so I guess since they aren't dead I have no worries since I don't abuse it. Lol I will be taking weekends off soon because I've been taking it so long that I forgot what It felt like w/o it and thats not good if your trying to stay healthy and balanced.
I've been taking mine on the weekend but I'm going to stop through this weekend to give my body and brain a little "reset"
This might seem like a bit of a strange comment, but I'm from the UK and I can detect a slight Midlands or Northern UK accent. Am I delusional, or did you move from the UK to the US at some point?
Yeah I'm from Cumbria mate :) the north west, I moved out to America 6 years ago
I take weekends off as well If I don't after about 3 months it will stop working which for school is normally when I need it the most.
During the weekends though I rarely feel like doing anything and I just sit around all day.
Do you have any idea for activities to do when focus levels are so low?
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, i have a very important question: do you plan to take adderal for the rest of your life? Dont you fear to stop it? Dont you think is dangerous for your healt?
Hey :) your welcome! Thanks for watching! I have no plans to stop taking it, I take a relatively low dosage and I take only the prescribed amount from the doctor so I'm not worried too much :)
@@MewithADHD so you haven’t had any side effects?
@@Djr2699 not really, I tend to get a little tired if I don't take it but i usually have a coffee and feel pretty good, most doctors recommend you take a break on weekends every now and again

How is it going in 2023?
You can drink coffee 8 hrs after taking it
You don't get depress when off your Adderall? They have me on 45mg IR a day. 7 years on.....is depression normal coming off Adderall? Adderall the VA has me on for ADD and to control chronic depression...medical Marijuana and Adderall only 2 drugs i am on not ......I do not even drink anymore because of my depression.
Makes sense, treat it like any stimulant I.e. coffee I suppose
As someone who has adhd why would you put that music on this video or so high 🥲
Thank you so much, I also don’t took everyday cause I really didn’t want to be like a junkie
So I don't have to lose keys and be anxious during the week but on the weekends i do?? No thanks.
Yah caffeine makes you awake and energized and that's what Adderall does too.
Literally yes to every reason you stated in the video lol
Completely opposite from you w the caffeine. When I take adderall, I typically indulge in large amounts of caffeine to help the adderall take more Of an effect. Combining 30mg XRs with 200-300mg of caffeine is typical for me. Probably not good for my heart
yea.....
Yeah. It's horrible. That's why I don't take it on weekends.
I need a break
Thank you very benifitual talk 💙
I agree with what youre saying I think that its a system and a cirumstances thing excuse my spilling
So where are you based because you have a British accent but I don't think Adderall is available in the 🇬🇧
I'm based in California :) yeah I hear it's no available there, there are other similar medications tho right?
@@MewithADHD yeah theres vyanse and ritalin. Im still struggling getting a diagnosis. It such a long wait.
I'm sorry to hear that :( I hear it can take a long while in the UK, it took me a while over here too
Finally got diagnosed. Adhd. I've been on Adderall for three weeks but I've skipped weekends so far. The silence on my head is amazing.
Keep the vids up bro
Thanks man! Will do
I know you probably won’t respond to me but I don’t ever not want to be on aderall because when I’m off of it when school is out I am a lazy piece of crap
So curious about your accent! You sound american but also british?
I'm British, my mum is English and my dad is Scottish, but I have lived in California for the last 6 years so it's a weird mix of all 3 now 😄
That’s awesome!
I was thinking that maybe taking, let’s say 20mg on weekdays and 10mg on weekends might also help with tolerance.
I stopped to save my pills because I can’t refill my meds until I run out. Fucking insurance. If I can’t get to the pharmacy on that day, at least I have some saved pills. If I don’t have a stash, I get anxious I’ll run completely out.
I take Vyvanse for my ADHD i like taking a Breck from them on the weekends or sometimes on my days off but you got any tips for the unconterble felling you get ik everyone's different but i take mine around 7 8 in the morning and around 3 to 4 ish I get the unconterble and I feel pissed off kinda or achated I really don't like that felling but sorry this is long hopefully you got some tips that might help me
Is 30mg a low or high dosage?
I felt like it was high, I'm on half that now! If all depends on the person though
Me with ADHD. I’ll discuss this with my psychiatrist because I was on 20 MG and I felt normal but then It started wearing off like you said in the video. They bumped it up to 30 but now I’m having really bad anxiety from it. I had to take a week break from it now because the anxiety was so bad. However I feel so lethargic without the medication. Caffeine was another problem for me too because I love drinking diet soda. This video really helped me out a lot. I know what you mean when you want to have days when you just want to feel you and not think about working. Thanks for getting back to me!!
Hows the adderall now? Is it working? I’m thinking of taking it I use to take vyvanse
@@orlandoigno482 is the address working now??
Coitus is next level for me on 30mg.
