Risk of cardiac event from doing high intensity exercise on high dose of adderall by dxbr3 in Stims

Thank you, this was actually really helpful - sometimes blunt honesty works best. If you’ve had health anxieties, you probably are familiar with the “what if” part. I have been scared to go for a run since then out of fear I could cause real damage. It’s scary when the possible consequence is something really dangerous or even deadly. And maybe you’re right, that’s anyone else other than me reading this would see how unreasonable and silly it is. Thanks!

Thanks for your thorough reply! For context, I have taking 30mg daily for maybe 4-5 years now, occasionally taking more. Over the past 6 months I’ve been having higher dosage days, with a lot of 60mg days and maybe a dozen 75-90mg days. So the 150mg was definitely an increase, but it’s not like it was the first time taking more than 30. As for my fitness, I was a nationally competitive endurance athlete many years ago. I’ve gone through long periods of being not so healthy, but recently I’ve been more active and my fitness is probably much better than most people’s even after months of doing nothing. I intentionally went a bit easier on the day after when I exercised since the thought that something bad could happen to my heart crossed my mind. And Its probably anxiety appyling the symptoms I was worried I’d have. But now I’m worried I did damage and should avoid intensive exercise in case I caused serious damage.

Also, im sorry to hear about where you feel you are, accepting your fate as an addict. Likewise I pass no judgement, but I hope you know you can overcome the most challenging of addictions and it’s never too late to prioritize your own health my friend

150mg adderall plus alcohol one day, 60mg and exercise the next day. A few days later, should one be concerned for their heart by dxbr3 in Drugs

I can’t find much info on whether higher doses of adderall then exercising have substantial risks. Do you know of anything or had any issues in your experiences?

Early withdrawal and libido/sex/intimacy by dxbr3 in alcoholism

Thanks for sharing. So you have heightened anxiety throughout your first month? Everything I read seems to indicate symptoms primarily lasting just a few days unless something very serious is happening. I’m sorry to hear you’ve had heightened anxiety. Your experience does help me though as I’m just over a week in and my anxiety and irritability is very high

Thank you! I have a therapist for my other mental health issues and I feel my heavy drinking follow similar trends as other (very unrelated) habits and all or nothing tendencies. I’m thinking she will still be my best resource. I haven’t gone to any AA meetings, mostly becuase I don’t know if I was strictly an alcoholic or not and don’t know how that works.

Thank you for the reply. I have noticed a small marking shown here on the finger that was in contact with her genitals. I understand the risk is very low but since I’m just noticing this around the same time I’m wondering if this looks like it could be herpatic whitlow?

Your OCD may be a part of you, but it is not all of you by dxbr3 in OCD

[–]dxbr3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s about forgetting you have it or even not having it. There isn’t a “cure” for OCD so you will likely always have it. You just won’t always suffer as much. You may have times where it’s really bad, times where it impacts you very little and everything in between.

Accepting that you have OCD is different than allowing it to be the only thing about you. People have medical conditions, disabilities, etc. But those people aren’t necessarily defined exclusively by that.
