Avoiding amphetamine tolerance

[0rrr]

So every now and then I come across prescription amphetamines such as vyvanse and adderall. I've noticed that I build a rapid tolerance to these drugs. If it has been 2 weeks or more since i've taken any amphetamines, the first time I take them is great. Tons of euphoria, increased concentration, increased motivation. But, even if I wait 1-2 days between taking them again, I notice a SEVERE decrease in effects. Euphoria and increased motivation are all but gone after 2 times (ex. first dose->off day-> second dose-> off day -> third dose) and I'm left with only a mild concentration increase which is not worth the comedown. I noticed that increasing my dose each time helps to alleviate this problem but even a large jump such as taking 60mg vyvanse the first dose and then 90mg the 2nd dose still doesn't produce near as good effects as the first dose. Obviously ramping up doses each time is an unsustainable solution, so I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to keep tolerance low. All the advice I've seen given about keeping tolerance down seems to be directed at daily users.

You may use infrequently at low doses. Adaptogenic drugs seem to help a little. Tachyphylaxis is strong with amps, as is enduring tolerance. You need to dose really low or just like once or twice a month.

DXM helps a lot.

But let's be real: if you're using amphetamines recreationally once a week or so, it's very dangerous and tolerance is guaranteed. You must wait a long time (I'd recommend at least a month) and work out / eat healthful in the meantime.

If you really don't give a shit about fucking with your brain, though, dextromethorphan is your best bet.
