dosage for first time aderall user

for recreational use, 30-40mg. Probably get some slight euphoria from 20mg. I would do 30 for first time.
 
30-40 mg is an absurd recommendation for a first time dose of pharmaceutical grade amphetamines, given negligible experience and tolerance with similar drugs. 10-15 mg is a decent first time dose.

I agree with this. Adderall provides no rush upon taking it orally and has a long duration. For this reason there is no reason to pop 30-40 mg the first time and realize it was too much or you just plain don't enjoy the effects of this medication (considering you have pretty minimal stimulant experience and none within the amphetamine class). I would start with 10, see how that feels and take another 10 if it doesn't do much.

Its the oh so simple rule with drugs, 'you can always take more but you can't take less once its already consumed', that is neglected by most the people who overdose and have a bad experience, whether it be life threatening or just unpleasant.

I agree also. Jeez man... calm yourself lol. No hate, i know you're just helping as best you can :)
 
10-20 mg if you're looking to be productive with Adderall and try to learn how to control your dosing over time. If it's just a one time thing, though, 30-40 mg would give a great all day high.
 
30-40mg is not an absurd recommendation for someone trying to get high. I recommended 30 so let's just keep it there, ignore the 40 if you must(even tho i just took 40 the other day for the first time in a while and it put me in the perfect place). My first time ever taking amps, I took 15mg and besides feeling slightly speedy, I got little to no euphoric effects. Why put yourself through a comedown for no enjoyment? 30mg isn't going to hurt an amp-naive person unless they have some heart condition. I have had 3-5 different friends who I also gave some addy's to. At first, I told them to start at 20mg, and they weren't THAT impressed. I then told them to try 30mg+ and they said it was much more of what they were looking for on the recreational front. Following that, they started asking me for Addy's all the time & I started running out too soon. I'm not just making this shit up. Whoever said you can't get a rush off addy's is wrong. There's a strong euphoric rush for me when I pop that dose at one time, maybe your problem is that your only taking 10mg? Or maybe you're spreading out your doses? I don't personally recommend doing that once you figure out the right dosage, it's better to take it once and not re-dose.(unless you're using it non-recreational for school or something you may need to re-dose, but in that case I would just recommend extended release or vyvanse)

In all seriousness, for harm reduction purposes, cause I know the chances of you listening to my advice is much lower since these others chimed in... Just take 20mg. You will still get some of the desired effects, but I guarantee you'll be thinking about that extra 10mg the next time you want to do it. If you're going to start taking addy's with any regularity, I wouldn't do the dose I recommended. But assuming this is a one time or once in a blue moon thing to get high, the dose I recommended shouldn't hurt you(given no serious health conditions) & will give you the best bang for your buck recreationaly. Everyone seems to be extra-cautious when recommending dosage for a first-timer, and I appreciate that to a degree because you want to see how your body reacts. So in that sense, take their advice. But when you're ready to really get something out of it, take mine. In the meantime, expect a sub-par high followed up by an awful crash. That's how it was for me. I never noticed a huge difference between the crash of taking 20mg of addy or 30mg as long as I took the dose at once. So what's better? subpar high shitty crash OR good high shitty crash?

40 mg is a bad idea for a first time dose. Tolerant users dose 30-40 mg at a time to get the euphoric feeling off of Adderall and Dexedrine. How can that be right for a first time user?
 
The first time I took Adderall was a 10 mg dose and I was affected for 8 hours. It's not like cocaine you're just trying to get high; it's also an experience that has affective components and a much steeper comedown -- hell, I'm sure to some it would feel surreal.

At a minimum, dose 10 mg and wait 90 minutes. You'll be plateaued and if you decide you want to do more crush up some more and it'll hit in 40 minutes on an empty stomach.

Ofcorse you were 'affected'. You could take 5mg and be 'affected'. I think the OP could explain what he's trying to get out of it and that might help a little more. If he's looking for something to help him study, stay focused without some crazy high then yes 10-15mg is the way to go. If he's taking it for the sole purpose of getting high, I can just about guarantee he won't be satisfied by just having it 'affect' him at 10mg. Especially considering how he's gonna feel later.
 
Alright. I think you're right in that the op should describe what he's looking to get out of it, not only as far as the dose (his aims), but if he might ever plan on taking it in the future. Because starting off with doses that get you HIGH off the break will definitely truncate the honeymoon phase with amphetamines much shorter than if you take it slow at the beginning. Nobody likes to use a smaller dose once they've found a higher dose to give them good effects; a smaller dose would just be worse than the last experience. Hence, there's a strong psychological incentive to dose at or higher than the first time dose in the future. This is a total waste if you want to "get to know" amphetamines in order so you'll have fond memories of that honeymoon phase at the very least.
 
I'm an opiate lover however I came across Adderall by chance for the first time last week. I took 10 mg. I waited and hour. I felt great. I took another 10 mg. and soon felt even better for about 8 hours more. The whole jaw thing came on but it was very "clean." The only thing I'd recommend is to do them early in the day so you can get some rest when it comes time for bed.
