I know I have a fast metabolism. Same issue for pain killers, I can take 30mg Oxycodone and feel little to nothing, maybe a tiny bit dizzy for 20 minutes. I also had only tried alcohol a few times... Had about 9 shots of Vodka in 1 hour, hardly felt a bit dizzy but totally not drunk at all.
Im 6'0", 210 lbs. Fairly healthy... Why am I getting no effect from this Adderall XR? I was prescribed 20mg. Did nothing so I have tried 40mg (against my prescription limit, I know...) for a week, still little to no effect (or at least nothing I notice really). I just took about 60mg and I'm probably going to fall asleep for a couple hours and wake up later for work.
I have pretty bad issues from ADHD, focus is impossible at times. Social issues. You name it... I was thinking maybe it just wasn't the right medicine, but even if it wasn't, it should still be giving energy or making me stay up and such. I can take it and sleep without an issue. No particularly noticeable change at all, maybe a tiny tiny bit of focus but honestly it's hard to tell because sometimes I can focus. Some days I'm just a mess. So what do I do?
Also, what do I say to my doctor at my next appointment? They might not like if I tell them I exceeded my prescription dose and tested other things out (slowly and safely, but nonetheless). I don't want to have her stop the prescription if it actually does help in some way... Suggestions?
