Hey guys, i use adderall a few times a week, normally 50mg for my scronny ass, and feel like shit and can never get to bed a few hours after taking it. How could i help my feeling bad (mostly physically) and my sleeping from after taking addy without wasting money on more drugs?

Thanks for your time

Peace
 
orange juice is your friend :)
anything acidic that will get the amphetamines out of your body quicker.. As for the physical part, centrum is always good to have on hand. :)
 
The best way is to eat and drink oj and then just relax in your bed and calm down. I personally never had any proplems with Adderall so the things I am going to suggest next is what I do for a cocaine comedown which is much more severe. So other than the natural and safest ways to fix you up you could take some tylenol pm and see if that helps, if not you may need a pain killer such as lortab or vicodin, and if they don't work oxycodone(that's what I personally do). Or you could try a muscle relaxer such as xaxax or kolonopin. And also you can try to get a sleeping pill such as ambien cr. Just remember to always be safe and use good judge ment.
 
Don't take it a few hours before going to bed? Amphetamines last quite a long time.. especially the insomnia effects.
 
your post is a bit confusing, can you clarify something- are you taking these at night???
if so thats your first problem, most people i know take adderall as a diet pill, and it became a household name because college kids were using it to stay awake all night to study.

so are you taking it for recreational reasons,if so take it early in the day, or wAit for the weekend,
xanax is awesome to get you to relax but if you dont want to spend money do a couple shots of some strong liquior or cough syrup ( not day-time either!)
 
^no. other gabaergics also work well. lyrica, pregabalin, alcohol.....

are you taking XRs or IRs?

also, DO NOT take xrs if you expect to sleep in, oh, 10 hours. irs if you expect to sleep in 6.
 
Sorry to shift this to myself... but I took an Adderall XR 30 mg at 9am this morning,and another Adderall XR 30 mg at about 1:15pm today (1st day ever taking them, took them to focus)... now it's about 8pm... I can feel it kind of wear off but what can I expect from a comedown? Will I be able to fall asleep if I go to bed around 11pm? I have a little headache but I've been drinking lots of vitamin water... feeling a little snappy but other than that not too bad so far.
 
get some melatonin (for sleep) and l-tyrosine (for the day after) at your local health store.
 
if you get past that initial snippy 'i want some fucking more' stage without too much of a problem, you should be all right. waiting it out can feel kind of difficult but ultimately it doesn't take that long. distract yourself with the internets. that's what i'm doing at the moment :)

also...muscle tension can sometimes contribute, hot showers/baths work wonders. as does hot tea (decaffeinated). tiger balm is also nice. i'm guessing that this might be part of the 'feeling like shit'.

and i'm surprised nobody mentioned this, drink some water! adderall will get you a little bit dehydrated. dehydration can be blamed for a million little problems.
 
opiates or benzoes are the only things that actually help for me


i love when people spout this bullshit 8). there are plenty of natural things that will destress you, relax you, help you sleep, and help put you in a better mood the next day. such as what gormur suggested.
 
^Agreed, I still binge out on the shit every now and then but now I just use vitamins , melatonin , and some marijuana.. that kind of logic is what led to an additional Heroin/Xanax addiction back then... Never again.. atleast I hope not
 
stay up and occupy your mind while relaxing physically.

Read, watch a movie, post on BL, listen to music, ect. Until you feel really ready to sleep. Laying in bed twitching just helps you focus on the suck.
 
gatorade, tea, and orange juice. Ambient music and a comfy blanket. Your body will do what it wants sleep wise, you might be able to catch a few hours but if not (probably not) you want to replenish your body in other ways as well as be as comfortable as possible.
 
Drink some healthy drinks like V8 or some kind of fruit/vegetable combo. Also, a benzo on the comdown can't hurt. Also, if you really try to force some food down while you're on the amphetamine, it will really help... even a banana or something....
 
worst case scenario

Dude I plug and snort adderall xrs and swallow vyvanses all the time, especially with Finals coming up. honestly dude, sometimes you have nights where you just don't sleep. You'll be watching infomercials and you'll be tired the next day but you won't shake or anything the next day ppl will just see bags under your eyes. and bro I ALWAYS save atleast 1 pill just in case I need a pick me up after a long night of adderall plugging
