Stimulants crushing adderall ER beads -- does it fully defeat time release?

I've been reading varying opinions about crushing Adderall extended release beads and whether it actually gets rid of the time release mechanism.

The reason I'm asking is because the other night I crushed 10mg XR and mixed the powder in a glass of water, around 7:45pm. My tolerance is moderate enough -- if I took 10mg IR at that time I'd have no problems getting to sleep. With the XR though, I went to bed around 1am and didn't fully fall asleep until sometime after 5am. I'm pretty sure I crushed them thoroughly.

I'm wanting to use it tonight, probably around the same time, but not if I can't get to sleep again. How effective in defeating the time release is crushing the beads with a spoon in a small bowl?

Also, would snorting the powder have it affect me for the same amount of time as mixing the powder with water?

Thanks
 
Crush the beads by putting them in a the middle of a piece of folded paper. press against them until you got most of them crush then run it back and forth until they are dust.

IMO your not going to feel sh*t railing adderall, at least i didn't.

TBH adderall is a pretty terrible recreational high, but I'm sure that won't dissuade you.

I don't think crushing them does much to the ER but I've heard it may help a bit.

Your best bet imo is crushing and eating a spoon ful of baking soda then parachuating.

Don't except a high anything similar to coke, if you feel a "high" at all that is.

I know exactly how it feels for me, that isn't the issue. I do it because it's not every intense or euphoric at all.
I'm mostly wondering about how well it gets rid of time release.

BTW, I've heard of the baking soda before, but what does that do exactly?

apparently it basifying your stomach ph level and digesting system so the adderall can be absorbed better. It's supposed to make a huge difference, I've read up to 4x stronger.

And I just don't like adderall cause I don't really feel an up, but I feel the down after... it's a long, dragged out down where I just feel pretty crappy and anxious.

Can the baking soda be mixed in water or does it have to be taken as is?

QFT. Good post.

The baking soda can be mixed with water or taken in a parachute with the adderall beads. What this does is make you GI tract more alkaline, which will allow a greater pH range for the amphetamine to take its effect, which in turn will give you a stronger high. If you use this method avoid drinking acidic drinks (but do keep hydrated).

Its worth noting that if you take a dose with the intentions to last all day, say 40mg, you can "redose" on the baking soda half way through your day, and it will help boost you back up to the level you want to be at. I have done it numerous times, it sounds crazy, I was skeptical at first, but it really does work!

Definitely a huge difference. I have been high all day long off a single 20mg pill before by carefully utilizing and redosing baking soda. Normally I take upwards of 120mg for a day of work. 20mg with baking soda didn't bring me to this level by any means, but it did make a significant difference considering 20mg is usually something I would sleep on.

Even with shitty amphetamines like Adderall, give yourself at least 4 hours until you need to sleep. Maybe more if it's the XR.

I have been blessed enough to never have to deal with Adderall XR again, but before desoxyn, I'd crush the beads and I'm pretty sure that defeats the MAJORITY of the time release.

But as it's been said, amphetamine salts fucking suck, but if you like that amped up feeling with no euphoria, the baking soda trick will make you feel amped for much longer (although I don't know why any person could enjoy the feeling)

To each his own
