I'd just like to get feedback on whether my experiences are typical and if not, how others do it. Most importantly I want to know about binge dosing.
To preface, I'm prescribed 20mg twice a day for my add but I'm not always on it bc of insurance lapses and such, and I do take it recreationally as well.
How long do you binge for? Mine are almost always right at or a few hours over 48 hours. I like to binge once in a while to get things done I don't normally have the energy to do (physically or socially demanding activities, etc) due to chronic pain and ptsd/anxiety (when you struggle so hard to just live life on life's terms, two days a few times a month to get to feel and act like a normal, functional adult is almost priceless), to spend quality time with friends here and there or if there's an important occasion where I have to socialize (I'm a huge introvert and verbal conversation is hard), to have a couple days where I know I'll be happy and bouncy, and for the sexual benefits it gives me and therefore my hubby too lol.
What's your start dose? I usually start with 45-60mg, of that I eat 30-45 and snort 15.
What's your max dose for a binge? After my start dose, I'll dose up every 3-4 hours or so with 10-15mg and so for a two day binge I end up taking 6-8 30mg pills. My tolerance has gone up a bit lately though so I think I want to up my start dose and total dose and need feedback on how high I can go without completely frying my brain lol.
Is it worth the comedown for you? It absolutely, hands down is for me. My lows aren't fun by any means, I get sore muscles, sometimes vicious headaches and a brain that won't shut off when my body is too exhausted to keep going, but all the plusses far outweigh that to me!
Thanks bunches for taking the time to read this and hopefully share how you do it with me! :-D
