OK so I am a competitive call of duty player. Next weekend their is a 2 day event in Philly. I was thinking bout it and I think I'll proble smoke a blunt then take about 45-60 mg orally. I'm only trying to get a little bit of the buzz from the Maddy I want that more for the focusing. But I've never mixed the two then was around a large crowd of people. So I'm wondering will I still be able to acheivr the semi relaxed feeling I get from mixing the 2 normally, or do you think it will be more of a anxiety filled high? If so would u recommend less adderral or less bud? And also today at around 3 I popped a 30mg then around 11:30 I snorted about 20mg more and smoked 2 fat bowls of some exotic out of my bong. How long do u think it will be till I pass out?
 
Why would you smoke weed to improve motor skill performance? Mixing the two will add a lot of anxiety if you're not used to that kind of setting, never mixed them myself, though.

I have to say there are moral obligations against "juicing" before a sporting event. Unless you know everyone else there is on Adderall, not just suspecting it, then this is akin to taking steroids the training cycle before a competition, and I can't say I approve of it. When I was serious into video games, I would probably fuck someone up with my teammates if we found out they were amped out and won because of that, and I've never fucked anybody up in my life.
 
I would say take the least amount of Adderall you can to stay focused, because the more you take the more side-effects you get. This is partly due to the build up of L-amphetamine, which is responsible for the negative side-effects. I would say skip the pot because a lot of people have anxiety reactions when mixing the two, if you are someone who actually enjoys the combo and it makes you more relaxed then go for it.. In general I'd say take the least amount of both so you can stay focused without experiencing any negative effects. Good luck.
 
Thanks for the reply. I'll problem end up taking around 20mg er and smoke like half a bowl, any idea how much longer I'll be up for?
 
Also, keep in mind that if you dose amphetamines too high, they actually decrease focus, and you won't perform as well. You want a therapeutic dosage, considering you have ADD, to raise your performance in gaming.

The fact that you fall asleep 10-16 hours after dosing Adderall (IR?) shows that you are taking way too high of a dosage, davey, have you found that lower dosages actually help you focus better without making you all "tweaked?"

20mg ER is a responsible dosage considering you don't crush it, OP, and will probably help you more in gaming than 30-40mg will.

Good luck, and stay away from too much caffeine if you wanna win.

It was actually me who said I can fall asleep 10-16hrs after dosing, the OP didn't state how long it usually affects him. I would agree with you on that dosing too high actually makes it harder to focus because of over-stimulation. OP: keep your dose therapeutic (20-30mg, depending on your tolerance).
 
I've used adderall quite a bit. But I never usually space out 2 uses to far in one day. Last time I did adderal for a rec. Use I dis 30 oral and snorted 30 about 3pm and was awake until 3pm and that was without any weed.
 
Btw guys, I'm still up chillen smoking some bud just sucks I don't got any ciggarretts
 
how much amphetamine do you usually take?? i agree with ergic, i think you are taking too much. i'd leave out the weed also, save it for when the tournament is over as a way to relax and go to sleep.

i like the advice about staying away from caffeine as they will synergize and give you a terrible tweaked experience.

good luck man!!
 
Well my usually dosage for a good night would be about 45 mg I have these 2-3 times a week then I'll take around 20 most other days just for a lil energy and to help motivate me at work

any more than 40mgs is not gonna be worth the money, especially if you have a tolerance. when i have high amphetamine tolerance, i can take about 200 mgs (i do NOT reccomend this, you get peripheral effects through the roof!) and not get any more of a high than i would on 40mgs. Just take 20mg sublingual or if youre a=into that you can plug it and then just start from there, not exceeding the 40mg mark. your brain will thank you for it.
 
Yeah, I find that with adderall, or Dextroamphetamine, tolerance builds rapidly, but also drops quickly if you give it a two week break or so. Whenever Ive taken adderal after a month or more of abstaining from stimulants, I never take a dose higher than 30mg. To be quite honest, 10-15mg is usually quite enough to have me feeling euphoric and stimulated. Plus, if you start off at lower dosages, you have a bit more room to go up when your tolerance does increase.

Not to mention, once your tolerance does skyrocket to the point where your taking 100mg+, the drug is hardly worth it anymore-your just postponing a crash.

If you want to mellow out though, I would not take either of these drugs (THC or amphetamines), though that's just my personal opinion.. I find marijuana causes me insane panic attacks, and I can't imagine mixing that with the stimulation of amphetamines-or the crash for that matter... However, if weed mellows you out, and your looking for a "chill" experience, decrease the amphetamine dosage.

So based on Znegative's post, the OP should take that 20mg XR he was contemplating, as his tolerance is slightly higher than yours, Z. Adderall XR 20mg releases 10mg instantly then the other 10mg all at once in 4-6 hours, which should be a perfect dosage for the OP's needs if he doesn't mess with the beads.

10mg for the OP's tolerance should have him focused and alert (non-abuse, therapeutic levels of prefontal cortex DA, which is good for focusing, not getting high), not euphoric and stimulated, since he sometimes takes twice the dosage (60mg) as you, Z.

20mg XR just pop it 30-45 minutes before the start of the match, OP.
 
Thanks everyone for all the info. But one more thing, I did manage to sleep for 2 hrs today but its now 2 am and I'm not tired. Haven't taken any more and I've smoke a lot of bud. Anyone know if this is possibly a side effect of the aderrall or just me not being tired?
