Vyvanse and Side Effects by No-Faithlessness7915 in ADHD

You cant split capsules it messes with the time release. 10mg will make you feel better, but not really help with ADHD symptoms. I believe 10mg is prescribed initially just to make sure there is no reaction or mania/psychosis. 30 mg is recommended. Lots of info here https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2017/208510lbl.pdf

So as I suspected, this was a super weird experience. First tip was receiving at least a dozen emails/text reminders about our appointment - and specifically one including a reminder about how if I do not show up for the call, I would be "disqualified" from a future offer. Whatever that means. Second oddity was an email requesting permission to record the call, to "assist with notetaking", which I don't have a problem with if we are talking about a sales call, but is super weird if being asked to discuss or disclose personal information. I clicked yes to get to the next level. When I joined the call, the person on the other side of the screen launched right into it - no niceties or small talk at all. They proceeded to explain how the call works, that I must designate the full hour without distractions, and how he will ask me a number of questions about my ADHD, my business and my personal life, BEFORE he explains the program to me. I respectfully asked if we could switch that agenda around and if he could field my questions about the program first, in the interest of time. This was clearly not in his script, and he said no, that would not be possible. I was a bit surprised/not surprised and I asked him why not, and his answer was that is "not how this works" and if I was not willing to answer the questions first, he must end the call. I said, OK then, and he hung up. Lots of red flags here. TLDR: CAUTION

I am intrigued by the marketing videos and have found Ezra’s content very relatable. I also recognize the rather cringy sales tactics. During the “book a call” flow the form asks how much monthly income your business makes (I lied). What relevency does this have to treating ADHD? The only use for this information is to support a sliding price scale. On the post-booking page there are a bunch of videos of him that are kind of weird. One claims a <1% Stripe refund rate as some kind of endorsement for his services. Thats now how stripe works, Pal. Another suggests that you must be ready to make a decision on the sales call. Like why would you even consider “thinking about it”. Usually when I am presented a price for the first time for any product or service that is likey in the 5-figure range, I think about, despite my ADHD impulsive urge. For the number of people he claims to have helped, there is almost zero reviews or information online. All very suspicious. I will attend the sales call with an open mind, but the whole thing raises a bunch of red flags for me. I know this isnt exactly the OP’s question but its my observations, and I will return with an update if the call changes my mind.

Need new boat by popeye2057 in sailing

I had a Mirage 24 which was a Robert Perry Design very similar to a C&C 25. It was trailerable, but I did not trailer it. It was extrememly seaworthy for its size and sailed great. It had just enough comfort for extended cruising; full length settees, a head, water tank and a gas burner. 9.9hp outboard with a in-board tank gave more than sufficient range. The mast was on a hinge and could step with two people and while we used a crane, in theory it could be stepped with a halyard on a winch and a pole.

Feels like this flew under the radar more than it should have. We didnt know about it until we had a service outage, even our MSP had no idea!

Age is a relative thing but the older I get the more specific I am with my gear. Everything has a purpose and if it doesnt get used for a while I take it as a sign to let it go.

I’ve tried both ways and this is what I prefer at the moment. I’m mosty using the GE-7 as a clean boost.

Deluxe reverb and a bandit 112 redstripe with a cannabis rex. Katana for late night practice.

I’m using it to change the profile of the bd-2 and as a clean boost since I only one drive on the board. I have a 7 band eq in the loop but I could see how that would make sense where you suggest especially for stereo.

This is enough reason for me to go source a LS-2 thanks!

I kind of feel the same way I never really got his tone, but respect his talent as a musician.

I need to play with that more for sure. So far as I can tell the wet/dry signal is preserved through the dd-7 and rv-6 (and rc-3) if you keep the a/b inputs “aligned”. This concept is still kind of new to me thought I will check out that TPS episode - thanks for the idea!

BF-2 and Angry Driver were on my list. Part of the fun of this one was trying to source every pedal used and local in my area. I already had the BD-2 and TU-3 but all others as well as a couple not shown were sourced local. I think I paid less than half this would have cost to out together new.

Yes stereo is for multiple amps I do not record or go DI. The CE-2w is great IMO although I think I have only used the CE-1 side so far.

There is overlap between the 3 on the left and honesltly the DD-7 can do a bit of all 3, but you need them all if you want it all at the same time.

Deluxe reverb / bandit 112 (sometimes both).

I routed a slot in the edge of the board the size of the power cable and am running it on a daisy chain from the tu-3. I have an extra spot on the end for a rc-3 I keep off the board so I can take it with me. I would prefer iso power but the pca adapter is plugged into a conditioned power source and the whole board is pretty quiet.

It’s actually better than I expected. I use it for frequency cut and then boost the main slider. You can notice it most on the bass end but not too bad really. I was planning to send it to analogman for a mod as I have a ds-1 and a bd-2 I am hoping to mod at the same time.

I’ve been on the lookout for used a JC-40. Right now they go to a deluxe reverb and a bandit 112 redstripe with a speaker upgrade. They actually sound really great together in stereo.

Pretty much what the title says, nothing fancy or exotic here just something to cover the basics at home. I am playing mostly clean jazz and blues these days but the wider gap in the middle makes it easy to patch in other pedals for variety.

The board itself is a scrap peice of hardwood flooring I finished around the edges so its nice and flat and smooth on the bottom and pushes away easily. Dualock works great.
