Hey, first day with Elvanse!

Was pretty crazy, and tbh 30mg are also too much for me. I find it crazy that this is the standard dose people get.

I had 110+ BPM (If my Mi Band 8 is reliable), slight nausea, 0% appetite etc.

I used Modafinil before to cope with my (then unknown) ADHD and there I took ¼ pill, so also really little.

I prefer to be in control, and this was a lot!

The pills are not delayed (retarded??) and a possible consumption way is powdering over a Joghurt etc.

So I will firstly just try 10mg, maybe 15 or 20. I have a pretty good body awareness, that should be enough.

But still, that stuff lasts 14h+ ! That is intense, longer than a lot of other drugs, even LSD.

This also means that my evening today was kinda gone, because I was so exhausted, like in my brain, a pretty strange feeling.

The alternative, Medikinet, lasts 2-3h which is kind of a joke.

Is there something that lasts 8h? A whole work day would be way better.


Why are 3 comments deleted?

I didnt find anything in the modlog, while my other post was removed as it links to Mastodon.

I find this pretty bad, because deduplicating writing effort is not sustainable

Update: now at least 4 comments are deleted.

    Thanks, yes there will be huge differences.

    Funny, I didnt get a tolerance often, for example with Cannabis. I got one with Caffeine I think.

    I think with cannabis was because I took so little.

    I want to try the “as low as possible” way. And maybe also 10mg Elvanse in the morning, something shorter lasting in the afternoon.

    I will wait a few days and see how that evolves, but that was so much I am sure I dont want that every day and also not sometimes.

    Actually, on the packaging it says that you can open the capsule and digest with joghurt. Pretty strange method, but thats why I did it.

    Maybe the fat helps with a slower release. I will see, today I experiment with 10mg sober, may kick a bit too hard.

    Vyvanse seems to just be a chemical prodrug, so the capsule is less important than the actual compound, regarding the release delay. That is my interpretation, I may keep you updated.

    Thanks a lot for all the tips! I will try a lower dose and also make pause days (apart from weekends).

    I will try Adderal, if that is not good enough, if I can find the compound it includes (it is also just some form of Amphetamine, likely with less molecules attached so it goes faster).
