I have ADHD, diagnosed late in life... I am an old fart. I also have a long history of abusing any and all things from my highschool days till my 36th birthday. I had 20 years clean and sober, until 2 years ago, but started abusing again with oxy's after 2 surgeries. I have been off of oxy for one year now.

Now to the point: I just got back from my Doctor's office and the pharmacy. I have a 3 month script for Dexedrine 10's, a 540 count. The bottle is winking at me... If I take them home to my wife and tell her I got them, she will lock them up and dole them out to me as scripted (she is a saint, with an electronic safe that stores her pain management med's).

If I don't tell her, I can try to "man-up" and do this myself as directed, but with a bit more freedom... that is, skip 2 days during the week, double up and Saturday and Sunday, but keep the weekly dosage as directed. The wife won't tolerate that if she knows...

Or I could not tell her, revert to old habits, and start gobling them by the handfull.... which is a distinct possibility. I know what I should do, but BL light input is always valuable. If this belongs in another forum, please move as appropriate. Thanks!
 
Why don't you break into your wife's electronic safe and get your balls back?

But seriously, either way you could always manage to skip two days during the week and save them for saturday and sunday. Unless she is going to watch you swallow them too.
 
"I have a 3 month script for Dexedrine 10's,"

I thought Cll amphetamine meds could only be scripted for 1 month?
 
Have your wife lock em' up. Addiction is a bitch. And dexadrine is so lovely. Don't waste em.

What kinda activities would you do after taking a handful of em?

Lol, I think my generation will make very odd senior citizen's. As scripted, they just make my work day more practical and organized, a great off-set to my ADD and my new "senior moments".

By the handfull they bring that artificial speedy sense of greatness. I never plan on taking them by the handfull, but sometimes my mind mugs me.
:(
 
Dude unless you want to create drama, and you clearly have a history of addiction, give her the pills.

Plain and simple. And good luck doing the right thing buddy.
 
Have you taken this med before? If my math is correct, it appears you have 180 a month, so that would be 60 mg's a day total. If you haven't taken them before, or if it has been a while, maybe save two back every day during the work week and end up with double for the weekend. Just a thought. Btw, I agree with you assesment on OUR generation, I'm 54, whoever looks after us is going to have their hands full!

Oh yeah, bad idea to keep it from the wife. I did something similar with opiates and it cost me a 25 year marriage. "Oh what a web we weave, when first we practice to deceive."
From one old fart to another old fart, Hang in there!
 
Good advice folks and thanks. I agree giving them to the wife is best, and that is what I will do. I have been on this script for a number of months, but this is my 2nd 3-month supply. I had taken a month off since the last one, and just decided to get the refill today... since the wife didn't know, I flirted with disaster thinking "I would do it right this time, by God!".

I just called her and told her that I got the refill. It seems I am always willing to prove that I am never to old to make an ass of myself. Maybe not this time, but I sure do have the potential.
 
Smart choice on letting her know about your refill. Flirting with disaster is easy. It's hard to give up addiction, or allow yourself to live without it. It always lingers, just keep pushing it away.
 
doing what you know works best for you is prolly a smart move...but if it was me I'd still hold onto a few and take 4 or 5 at once just for kicks!
 
So in the US you can be scripted 3 months worth of Cll amphetamines? here it's 30 days at once, and 10 days for Opi's
 
Where are you that you can only have opiates for 10 days? There are countless people where I live (in a verryy populated metro area) that are on or have been on opiates legally for years & years. It's not uncommon.
 
New Zealand. all the opiates come in 10 count bottles/lots.

I have a months worth of dexamphetamine + 5 scripted months (so basically a 6 months script)
maybe Australia is a bit more lenient for once?
haha

however, i do need to go see him before that script is out
in approximately two months

you should probably just take them as prescribed, as changing your dose up and skipping doses could be risky
especially considering you seem to have that kinda personality, like so many of us

but i think you are big and ugly enough to take your daily dose yourself ;)
giving them to your wife is kind of degrading, but i am sure there is plenty of justification for it

good luck man
peace.
 
"(so basically a 6 months script)"

OMG 6 months worth of Dex!! how many here could control that?
