When I'm on stimulants, whatever I'm doing, I keep doing.
This was with just 10mg Focalin and a caffeine pill:
I got out of class at 3PM today, and went back to my room (for what I thought would be 30 minutes), before going to study.
I spend about 4-5 hours really deeply looking into all classes that I might want to take in the rest of college. Really deeply analyzing what topics are what. Researching fields, mapping out class offering by semester, etc. Done around 9PM.
Spend about 2 hours on Reddit, felt "almost done" procrastinating the whole time. Read about NSA stuff. Done around 11pm
Read about government spying programs, drug smuggling, surveilance, domestic assassination, etc from 11pm-3am.
Spend 2 hours writing a long facebook post about the future of humanity to a friend, it's really long. Done now, 5am.
I've eaten nothing but 300 calories of chips since 3pm, didn't work, it's now 5am. WTF?
Focalin is only supposed to last around 8 hours, I took it at 2pm. I took a caffeine pill at 5pm.
What gives, do I just need better self-control? I wasted 12 hours like this yesterday, when my finals are in a week! Then 14 hours today...
I take a caffeine pill around 4pm daily, never get to sleep until like 4am, feel like death getting up at 10
What should I change? Give a friend my laptop? I'm on 10mg a day of prozac, and 10mg a day of focalin.
