This happened almost a year ago now and I was inspired to write it based on another trip report. Some quick background info: I had taken Adderall tons of times before this and a couple times in higher doses than what's mentioned below. 4

I emptied out three 20MG Adderall XR and one 15MG Adderall XR capsules. Poured them all in my mouth and chewed them up. Then I swallowed. I nearly gagged from putrid sweet/bitter taste of them. Yuck. It was so awful, it made me feel slightly ill. So I decided I'd eat before I couldn't anymore. So I microwaved some chinese food in my fridge and ate it. I was still feeling slightly ill after eating the chinese food, but I thought it would pass. It didn't........

Also I should mention that this was at (around) 10 PM at night. Anyways, I started playing some video games and listening to music. But as the night went on I began feeling sicker and sicker and sicker. At around 4 AM, the Adderall comedown hit me and, no exaggeration, the moment it hit me - how sick I was feeling literally quadrupled in intensity. My head hurt like a motherfucker and I was so nauseous I could barely stand. I was so ill there was nothing I could do. So I layed on the floor of my room (I think) 30 minutes. Then I got back on my computer and hoped it would pass, but it actually got worse.

Finally at around 7:30 AM the next morning. I realized that this kind of reaction isn't uncommon when you don't eat on AMPS. So I went downstairs and forced myself to eat the rest of that chinese food.....that was an awful mistake. I took a couple bites and instantly got sicker. I was so ill, I just put the food down and crawled upstairs to my bed. I didn't get there. I was so nauseous at this point that I really thought I was gonna puke. So I crawled into my bathroom.

I just layed next to my toilet for what seemed like hours (but was probably only 10 minutes.) As I was getting up to leave, I instantly got way more nauseous. I grabbed my toilet, started dry heaving, and then I puked. It looked totally gross from the fast-food chinese I had eaten. I just sat there letting the remnants of my stomach contents drip out of my mouth. After a couple minutes, I puked again. Then again, and then one more time.

Puking is the worst thing in the world when it's happening, and the fact that the Adderall comedown was at it's peak didn't make that any better, but I felt slightly better once it was over. I was really tired after this. So I walked back to my room and got in bed (it was now 9 AM I think). Fortunately, I had a barf bag that they use on plane left-over from a trip I had taken sometime ago. So I set that right next to me on my bed side table and was able to sleep for a couple hours.

I woke up again at either 1 or 2 PM. When I woke up, I realized instantly that I was feeling awful again. I tried to lay in bed and ignore it, but I could feel that I was just about to puke again, so I grabbed the barf bag and puked right into it. I then just sat there on my bed, still feeling awful. After a couple of minutes, I puke again, then again, then again, and again. It was in very rapid succession. I puked so much that the bag actually was filled right to the top.

Again, I just sat there, waiting to puke and feeling like death. Once again, after a couple minutes, I started feeling the onset of vomiting. But the bad I had was full! So I tried to stop myself, but this was in vain. I tried as hard as I could to keep it down so when it finally did come up, I spewed it everywhere. To make matters worse, the movement of that action made it so I dropped the bad I puke I was holding and it too got all over my bed.

To but to the chase, I believe what happened was - the chinese food I ate gave me the flu or I got food poisoning or something. But the Adderall just potentiated (not potentated) the effects of what ever I had contracted. The Adderall, therefore, gave me the flu....in a sense. However, I do believe it was just bad timing and bad chinese food.

I don't think this would have happened if I hadn't eaten the tainted food or taken the Adderall. Maybe it would have, maybe it wouldn't have. I don't know to be honest. But, I do know that the Adderall made it 20 times worse.

Also, after I puked on my bed, I was deathly ill for 3 days after that and I kept vomiting every 5-8 hours or so. After 5 days, I wasn't vomiting anymore, however, I still felt really crappy.
