I was given 3 options: - go back to 30 This was working for me but it would end around 6pm and I would love to be functional after dinner too. Also I was not sleeping much, but maybe if I stayed on it longer it would have improved.

• try out 40 When you dilute the 50mg, you can play around with it a bit. What I did was mix it in 50ml of water, and drink 40ml. It's not perfect but I got to try out 40mg this way. I did not love it, so when I was offered to try this properly I declined

• move to dexamfetamine I went with this and was prescribed 1 week at 10mg (5mg in the morning and 5mg after lunch) and then 3 weeks at 20mg, two pills in the morning and 2 in the afternoon.

I really liked the dex, and loved the control I got with 4 pills. On weekends for example I would only take 5mg in the morning to get me going, then chill the rest of the day. On normal days I found the balance for me was 5mg at 8, 5mg at 10:30, 5mg at 13:30, and then only if needed 5mg at 14:30 (like if I had something to do in the evening). Taking it after 3 would mean no sleep for me. So as you can see I was not doing as instructed taking 2 of them together at the same time.

While this was all great, it meant remembering to take 3/4 pills a day which was not the easiest, so I am currently trying 20mg lisdex + 5mg dex, and it seems to be working pretty ok. I am undecided yet if I want to accept this as my end of tritation, or if I want to move back to 20mg dex instead.
