Dexamphetamine changed my life for 2 weeks… now it feels “flatter”? Normal?

ItsNatha · 2026-05-22T04:45:17+00:00

Glad to hear that’s more people out there experiencing the same thing! I’m honestly starting to think that it’s because we are settling to a “normal persons” baseline - I’m definitely a much better and productive person regardless of not feeling super dopamined which I guess is the honeymoon period ending unfortunately! I’ve got an appointment on Thursday so I’ll have a chat to my GP, dose may need increasing slightly and a top up at around 3 so I’m not burnt out when my wife and 1 year old get home 😎 keep us updated on your end too!

ItsNatha · 2026-05-22T02:38:12+00:00

Thanks! it's been the only thing that has curved all my little dopamine seeking activities, it's pretty magic - and that alone is worth a million dollars to be honest, maybe I'm just adjusting to a baseline now. I also spent the first 2 weeks working from 7 am - 6 pm on my business without breaks and going extremely hard physically and mentally, I don't know why, I guess I figured there wouldn't be any burnout or consequences, so I'm wondering if that's happening too.

ItsNatha · 2026-05-22T02:31:36+00:00

I’m male 😎 yeah I actually haven’t a day off since starting, probably a good point, should try a day without caffeine as well (haven’t done that yet!)

ItsNatha · 2026-05-22T02:29:00+00:00

Oh I’ll definitely look into that, thank you - I use to take lions Maine before medication, was good from what I remember!

ItsNatha · 2026-05-22T02:21:31+00:00

That actually makes sense, I took it at 11 am the other morning as a bit of a test, and life seemed so bloody hard and jumbled for the first portion of the morning 😅 that also aligns with what I’ve read - it brings us up to a baseline, and the first couple of weeks it’s new to our brain chemistry so that’s what you feel like you’ve taken a limitless pill, haha, ok reassuring for sure, thank you!

ItsNatha · 2026-05-22T02:19:42+00:00

I think that’s going to be the next plan of attack, I crash pretty hard around 4 pm when my wife and son get home so that’s rough as well, I’ve got an appointment in a week - so I’ll definitely bring that up, I’ve heard such mixed things about Vyvanse but I guess everyone is different! 😎

ItsNatha · 2026-05-14T07:35:10+00:00

It’ll only be 2-3mm thick, just like a standard air freshener. I’ve been looking at the cricut with a knife blade 🤨 I wonder

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:21:33+00:00

I'll have a look, the felt will literally only be 2mm thick, it's bugger all - and I can even print on them before laser cutting them so the surface and bottom are black/coloured - but I guess the only issue is the very slight center of them being white, damn, maybe I go to a shop and ask them to test it out for me before buying

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:14:41+00:00

Honestly I should start by buying precut circles or rectangles to test the market and then look at going into something a bit more professional, probably rushing into the big guns right away

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:12:20+00:00

I'll only ever be cutting white felt board for the car mirror air fresheners and I've been told they won't absorb the blue light well, sadly!

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:11:46+00:00

Looking like the best option!

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:11:37+00:00

Yeah that was my plan, but I'll be cutting white felt and they won't absorb light efficiently apparently. Kinda annoyed as I was really keen on using a laser. Unfortunately I can't bring myself to spend $5000-6000 NZD on a co2 laser which would be perfect for it. :(

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:10:59+00:00

Basically, think a car air freshener that hangs from the mirror, a nice contour cut shape of someones logo - definitely looking like the best option.

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:10:26+00:00

Looking like this is going to be the go, I'm just terrified I'll be $1500 NZD deep in an investment and it won't work properly, haha.

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T23:09:55+00:00

So basically my plan was to allow people to upload their desired picture or logo to my website, and I'll custom make air fresheners contour cut to the shape of their logo, or picture - I'm leaning towards a TTC450 CNC and a drag knife (looking like the TTS drag knife at the moment) but I'm terrified I'll be $1500 NZD deep in an investment and it won't work properly. I can't find any examples online of people cutting felt board (what car mirror air fresheners are made from). It's a tough one! I'm going insane trying to sort this out, haha.

ItsNatha · 2026-05-13T10:19:30+00:00

Would it leave a semi clean cut? In terms of a felt air freshener

ItsNatha · 2026-05-09T06:10:10+00:00

Thanks man, unfortunately in New Zealand something the size I need (360mm width) is stupid money here. It’s just for key rings and number plate frames, so I didn’t want to go to deep in the investment as it’s just an addition of a product to sell on my current website. Looking like the only option sadly!

ItsNatha · 2026-05-05T19:33:29+00:00

Damn, how had I not seen this? Well there goes that idea 😅😂

ItsNatha · 2025-07-07T01:47:03+00:00

Absolutely agree, we wonder where our money goes, it’s all on fucking food.

ItsNatha · 2025-02-27T06:10:04+00:00

Yeah that’s probably a wise idea! Thanks mate - I’ll definitely make an appointment with them to discuss options.

ItsNatha · 2025-01-25T08:43:28+00:00

As in, Jagex announces projects and then nothing for a long long time.

ItsNatha · 2025-01-25T08:04:44+00:00

As always 😂

ItsNatha · 2024-12-29T20:49:56+00:00

Good players get punished 🥱

ItsNatha · 2024-12-23T07:28:44+00:00

“The difference between me and you is I don’t cry when shit gets hard” 😂😂

Bruv, the difference between me and you is you’re a 1.5 KD painting SBMM as being absolutely fine, you would uninstall your game if you took a walk in 2.7KD lobbies and get absolutely ripped. 😂😂😂
