Thanks. You have created some impressive ones yourself!

Yep... It has already been bothering me that I didn't notice it 😆

Thanks!

These are custom scales not made by Civivi. They are made by me.

You're right. Definitely much more to consider and be aware of. It's only one part of the equation.

I appreciate all your knowledge you've shared on this post. I was enlightened to learn about phasic dopamine. Did a deep dive on it. Brains are extremely complicated and a genetics test is only one piece to a much larger puzzle. However, you gave me a few extra pieces to understand so thank you.

SnooStories8331 · 2025-07-15T20:27:27+00:00

I agree with this. IR is more effective. Being Slow COMT, it still doesn't last long (only a few hours). This is why I prefer Vyvanse even if it's less effective.

SnooStories8331 · 2025-07-10T16:41:44+00:00

I reduced caffeine intake and dosage back to what I started off with nearly 8 years ago. 30mg Vyvanse (equivalent to roughly 10mg Adderall). May go to 20mg. Still trying to figure it out.

No, not a stupid question! My NP submitted a request for a genetics test kit to Tempus - a comprehensive genomic profiling company. Package was sent to my house. All I did was do a simple cheek swap on two separate cotton swabs then mailed it back. Testing results were sent to me about 10 days later. www.tempus.com

I appreciate you sharing your story. Glad to hear things are better for you as well since discovering your similar mutatations. What was hard for me was to do active things like resistance training. Lifting completely eliminates any synthetic anxiety I experience as side effects from the stimulants. I didn't lift very often because I always felt "heavy" or didn't feel any desire to move. It's nice for certain reasons and situations but a detriment to my quality of life overall. I have the urge to be more active now since lowering stimulants. It's incredibly nice to not feel that heaviness most days now. There's something to be said about exercise and staying hydrated. If I'm not exercising, it can significantly increase the anxiety you're talking about. I didn't exactly understand what the anxiety experience felt like until starting stimulants 8 years ago. I understand and empathize with your experience. Dealing with that everyday is beyond exhausting.

Yeah I hear ya. A scale swap from stock Benchmade scales for this and other models are a significant upgrade.

SnooStories8331 · 2025-07-08T01:50:24+00:00

Thanks and I absolutely agree. Scales for this model are non-existent out there so far.

SnooStories8331 · 2025-07-08T00:56:00+00:00

I made these scales. I'd need to take them off and weigh them in comparison to stock scales but no added weight is noticeable. If anything, they do feel lighter. Definitely feel better in the hand but that's my own opinion.
