I am very curious to find out other people's opinion to compare mine to. When replying please include your full diagnosis and comorbid conditions, plus your prefered drugs, if you feel like it include medications for your psychiatric condition since many drugs can interfere in a positive way. These will play into my personal research. I will provide mine as an example, i want to see if there is a pattern in bipolar individuals and their drug preferences, plus how these drugs might affect us differently than a normal individual. I will provide mine as an example:
Diagnosis: Bipolar disorder type I with psychotic features.
Comorbid conditions: Generalized anxiety disorder and substance abuse history.
Medications for psychiatric disorders:
Lithium 1,200mg
Celexa 20mg
Rameron 7.5mg
Ambien 10mg
Clonazepam 1mg 1-2 times daily
Adderall 20mg once a day as i usually don't need a second dose.
Drugs of choice: meth, occasional adderall beyond usual dose. But i have a history of pretty much everything from tylenol 3's, percocet, DXM, coke, benzos at recreational doses, up to even DPH for psychonaut endevours, tje list is to extensive to post.
I honestly seem to be keen on stimulants more than depressants, they seem to give me a much stronger high than other i have seen, usually what most consider a small ammount of meth woukd have me going for 2 days onto possibly 3 without redosing. Depressants are ok but i have the high opiates give and reserve it for a rare occasion, the only downers i enjoy are benzos with moderate alcohol (do not recommend!) i notice a good adderall or meth high is similar slightly to my mania but milder, i tend to be more depressive than manic but when i am manic it usually lands me in the hospital. I am careful with overdoing it due to my psychotic history which even weed surprisingly can, on occasion set off. Actually last night i took about 50mg of adderall at around 12am, redosed 30mg at 6am then stopped and am still tweaked out at 9:03pm. Surprisingly never have had issues stopping my use of any drugs even after 3 years smoking cigs heavily i put them down a year ago no problem, used meth IV and quit using the stuff for a good while before turning to regular amphetamine.
Anyone use stimmulants and notice the high is similar to hypomania or mania? I keep up with my lithium to avoid triggering actual mania. Downers just never caught on for me since i am usually to down as it is.
I know this was long sorry, but i think this could be very informative, plus i am tweaked and it came to mind so i had to post. Looking forwaed to your responses.
