just got perscribed 30 mg adderall 2x day (adult ADHD)
    #19086507 - 11/04/13 05:44 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Well apparently 10 mg didn't do anything for me for the month I was on it... so my doc just upped me to 30mg.

So i guess i'm curious as to what anyone else has gone through with adderall? I'm in my late 20's and apparently heavier on the side of ADHD. I'm not keen on the idea of being on this shit forever... but I'm hoping I find something soon that helps me be able to start studying again for certs and get back into school for law..

Any long-term ADHD adults in here?

I hope they help, try not to abuse them.

If I had enough self control I'd go get a script, but I do not.

It takes a lot of strength to realize this.

Horrible for your heart and body. One of the side effects of Adderall is SUDDEN DEATH. Please don't get caught up in the meth type addictiveness of this horrible pharm. My god will you regret it. Save yourself the pain and suffering of trying to get off that drug. Took me months. And you'll have horrible weight gain after you stop taking it.

I think they are instant almost... took my first one today and was pretty zooted! Just got a ton of shit done! I'm supposed to take 2 a day. They're the orange pills.

I know adderall is bad for the body, but I'm to the point where I need something that can center my thoughts so I can function at work.... Otherwise I can't get anything done and could get fired soon if I don't change something.

30 mg seems to be a lot for me... I'm getting a pill cutter tomorrow and dosing half normally starting tomorrow. I'll take full dose if and when I need it I think...

Any thoughts?

I only took adderall once in college. I had blown off my biology course all semester and it was the night before the final exam so I got some time release adderall from my roommate and hit the books. I read the first nine chapters of my textbook twice and whats more was absolutely focused and amazed by what I was reading. I ended up with the highest score on the final and an A in the class. This stuff does work, but it was too intense for me. Way more powerful than coke even. I couldn't imagine the amount of damage it would cause to your body over the long term. What I'm gettting at is what is more important: your physical and mental well-being or job security?

duh the stuffs more intense than coke. I started adderall first annd then tried coke, and it was as if coke didnt even do anything but numb the throat a little bit. Adderalls not unhealthy, just as long as you take care of yourself while on it... eat and drink sufficiently. If those orange pills have little tiny balls in them then its ER. I wouldnt rely on them everyday though... that is unhealthy.

Good thing you aren't taking the prescribed 60 mg a day if you don't need it; that's an easy way to get severely addicted to the drug.

I have a feeling your doctor doesn't know what he/she is doing by prescribing that much. 

Maybe you should try getting daily physical exercise instead of taking drugs to get yourself centered mentally.

Yeah, there's me. I'm 27 and I've been taking ADHD meds (first adderall, then ritalin, now dexedrine) for three years.

They've done a LOT for me in terms of school. I've accomplished things I never thought possible before I discovered them. I used to fail every class harder than psych, now I'm applying for a bachelor's in bioengineering or neuroscience at a number of universities and have a pretty good shot at getting accepted, judging from admission rates. I honestly believe this would not have been possible without prescription uppers. I'm like a goldfish without them. That's fine on its own, but I really want to get an education and become a scientist or engineer, and for me, uppers are necessary to achieve that.

My tolerance is kind of a sore point right now though, I've had a very busy semester and not many opportunities to take breaks. Usually I keep my tolerance down by taking a break every weekend, but I haven't had that opportunity recently and I'm needing to take bigger doses. This weekend should be different, though. It's something you have to bear in mind. :shrug:

I do find it strange that you didn't get anything out of 10mg adderalls, though. That's the same dose I first tried after a friend gave me a few, as I was going back into school, and I immediately began pumping out assignments and notes and keeping a tidy study space. It was like a night-and-day difference and I knew I had to go to the doc and get my own RX. After a break, that dose still hits me the same way. Adderall might not be for you. Or maybe you just need a higher dose :shrug: See how it goes. Make sure to go easy on yourself and try 15mg for a while before you try 30mg, though-- too much adderall can be a cure worse than the disease in many many ways. :whacker: :methisgood:

Exercise doesn't help with my attention issues... I was working out4-5 days a week, running a mile to the gym and back while getting 45-60 minutes lifting. Even when I was at 6 days a week, 2 hours a day, I still couldn't focus on anything besides exercise.

Thanks for the perspective... The 30 mg dose really is more than I need, So I'm picking up the pill cutter tonight so I don't need to do as much...  cause right now, I took the 30 mg twice yesterday and once today so far... I woke up with a headache and after the dose today it's kinda gone away.


The crazy part is the first dose yesterday had be bouncing off the walls! I got my TV mounted, living room cleaned, re-routed my Satilite, folded 6 loads of clothes, some agar work etc... Tons of shit!

Today, the 30 mg dose really doesn't feel like much though...... I feel something, but not a whole lot. If that gives you some insight as to how advanced my adhd is I guess... From what I've been told, the less you feel the adderall, the more advanced your adhd issues are

That's the magic I'm talking about. Adderall is not *supposed* to do that, atleast from a doctors perspective. It is "supposed" to make it easier to stay on task, not get shit done. You feel it less from a tolerance building. Amp tolerance builds fast. Like I said, been there done that.

Um, it's intended to help people get shit done. There are two subtypes of ADHD-- hyperactive and inattentive. Most people have a mixture of both. "Inattentive type ADHD" is basically a fancy way of saying lazy, so I'm pretty sure the drug is doing what it's supposed to be doing when you suddenly start getting lots of shit done.

IME amp tolerance only builds fast if you're chasing the dragon. I've been pretty careful to curb my doses throughout the years and when I'm starting from a clean slate of a good tolerance break, 10mg hits me as hard as ever. But OP would definitely be well-advised not to fall in love with the feeling of being geeked up, as it is very difficult to maintain and not really what an ADHD sufferer benefits from in a medication. Go for the 15mg doses.

Exactly. It's supposed to help you get shit done, not make you want to get shit done. Like if constantly get distracted and start doing the laundry then you get distracted with something else and get started on that not realizing you have your wet clothes in the washer. It's supposed to help with that.

What gives you the authority to say what ADHD meds are "supposed" to do? Do you work for the FDA or something?

IMO the strongly stimulating effects are part of the benefits, but they become "old hat" quickly and a sensation-seeker is liable to want to crank it up a notch. That's why it's important to find the right dose by starting low and inching your way up until you find the sweet spot.

Yeah, no argument here. Honestly, I consider 30mg to be a crazy one-time dose even after years of taking these drugs often for prolonged periods. Most people I know who take doses like that are not interested in treating ADHD. On the occasion that I realize I've taken 60mg in a day I get worried and tell myself to take a break soon.

Lucky, I need to ask my doc next time to step it up to 2x a day. One 30mg XR just doesn't do shit anymore, and I run out of my 30 pills in 2 weeks. At least it lets me get the tolerance back a bit, but those days sure suck.

I was prescribed 45mg of IR dex for a few years. It was awesome the first few months then slowly went downhill. I made sure I never ran out early, I ended up just taking larger doses less often because 15mg at a time wouldn't do shit. Towards the end of that time I could eat 100mg IR and it wouldn't phase me. I found a 10mg spansule a year after I stopped completely and snorted it for shits and giggles... it didn't do shit. I'm pretty sure my tolerance is perma fucked.
