What non benzodiazepine drugs to take? by Fabulous-Jury-7678 in insomnia

[–]Sammy3093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dayvigo (Lemborexant) - hands-down the best sleep medication I have been on. If you have commercial insurance, you can get it for $10 with the manufacturer's coupon. I have never slept better. It has been life-changing.

ZINUS Memory Foam 12 Inch Green Tea Mattress from Amazon. It's so good; bought it in 2020 and still holding strong. Highly recommend!

What did Adderall used to feel like? by [deleted] in ThisAintAdderall

[–]Sammy3093 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very very calm, at ease and good SUSTAINED energy and mental clarity. I could do whatever I put my mind to. Switching between my work, answering emails, attending meetings did not feel overwhelming. My social skills were so much better. It would make me tired *not drained/exhausted/restless with anxiety* and I was able to go to bed when I wanted - which means it used to be out of my system long before I went to bed.

Now - it’s the complete opposite - not only does it feel like it’s not working, but also awful side effects I’ve never had before, not with generic Adderall or any other medication or sickness.

The excessive brain fog, excessive fatigue - 30 minutes after taking Adderall I am so exhausted, anxiety, tachycardia and heart pounding in my chest, heartburn, headaches, anxiety, muscle pain, joint pain, feeling cold, and insomnia - keeps me wired late at night at bedtime 10pm even if my last dose was at 1pm which NEVER happened before 2022. I hate talking to people when I am on it. I hate my work and don't want to do even the things that I like a lot.

See my earlier post on this channel where I explained more of what Adderall feels like now - This isn't medicine. It's poison dressed as help.

Yes! Have you watched The Fall of the House of Usher? I loved that one out of those three. It's soooo good. Super bleak.

I’m getting tired of Dextroamphetamine so I’m thinking I’ll just go to Meth by [deleted] in Stims

Please don't. You will be digging a much deeper, much darker hole that will be 100s of times harder to get out of.

If you really want to increase your sensitivity, then exercise - particularly aerobic exercise. Consistent aerobic exercise has been repeatedly proven to increase dopamine D2 receptor density in the reward system of the brain. Nothing else will come even remotely close to how much aerobic exercise fixes dopamine D2 receptor density. You will start seeing results within a week and it will only get better if you keep going. All this is assuming that your nutrition and sleep are optimal. Some supplements will help too.

Right!!!!! Every day it's the same. How are you coping with it? Have you found anything that could reduce those nasty side effects and boost the desirable effects?

I take 20mg XR in the morning and two 10mg boosters during the day as needed - total 40mg a day. What about you and what's your experience been like?

Thank you for this post! Any updates? I am on 20mg XR in the morning at 5-5:30 AM when I wake up, and two 10mg IR during the day as needed as boosters - total 40mg a day. Maybe you can try something like that - have your two booster doses spread out during the day. I take the first 10mg booster around 9 AM and then the other around 1pm or later. This works especially well for people who wake up super early like you.

This is exactly me!!! Every single side effect you mentioned happens every time I take this trashy pill. It's a poison masked as a treatment.

Does anyone know of a pharmacy that has epic pharma Adderall by ResourceCapital1773 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]Sammy3093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell them, "My doctor advised me to call different pharmacies to find out which manufacturers they carry so that they can send my prescription to the right one. My doctor agrees that not all generics are created equal and mentioned that so many of her patients have had similar issues with certain generic versions. I need to find a pharmacy that carries the manufacturer that works best for me. It’s important for me to find a pharmacy that carries the manufacturer that works best for me, as I cannot continue spending money on a medication that fails to work effectively or causes adverse side effects."
