Hi, all its geno, I like the new look o fthe forum on top. But Iv ben so busy and I wish i could just go through alot of forums and learn as well as give ino.


I believe last week I may have posted a topc, but I really dont remember at this moment? ONe of the reasons, is SLEEP DEPREVEATION. And im finding out why Im feeling horrible, axious, the Adderall is not workking. Im going to list some freaky symptoms and approx the hour which staying up , and then thnkgs start. I usually get right up and take 30mg ADD, 4-6mg of my opiate dependantcy med, (suboxone) and .5mg of klonopin, just to keep any aggressiveness or anxiety.

I just read a post where the girl said after shes up for like 2 or similar and she experiences funny side effects and such./



Well heere is what Happens to me when i stay up longer than say 20 hrs. I cant say an exact time, because each day varies, I may fall asleep at 10mg at night wake up 10am, and I dont like that pattern, but i Love the night time, and Im usually waking ujp about 8pm, and up till at least the next night .


Ok, I feel great, well being, focus, motivated, etc, you name it and this "feeling, make medo alot of work and i end up staying up, The next night is here. Now I take 30mg every 6 hrs, which is enought to bring me out of a sleepy "im going to bed now" so ill take anouth 30m.'.


NOw Im sure if i doiuble up on them, i would be really going, but I find that after those first few days after a break, you feel so darn good, you dont want to even try to sleep/. WEll As i said took 7 days of, and I started back last wed, or 10 days ago, Now, After about 20 hrs, Im still feeeling ok actually about hyhour 24 I get a second wind or something;


( please dont think im like so addicted I have to stop. My two other friends also do the same, stay up 24 hrs, and there lke doing the same, butlike weekends,

Then i TOOK 7 days off, Litereally i slept for 5 days, or at least 4 days on and off sleep and 2 days of just laying in bed thinking my Doapmine left my brain (expression) LOL

Now, Im really not 100 percent sure why the heck i just stay up so long??? NOw Im usualy my computer and doing alot of research and cleaning, or workingout, so, I never thought ADDeralll would cause sucha mental lack of energy "feel like just closing myeyes and waiting fo rmy next appoikntment.


Ok Im sorry, I dont wanna run up the BILLS! LOL No finally by hour 36-40, IM STILL stubborn and dont wanna laydont. I catch myself talking to people that arent there, but no hallunications, A feeling of wrestlessness, and very like irritated, but thats more so when im off it like i.

Lastly, for example, I was up 48 hrs until yesteresday at 5pm. I was like If i dont sleep, ill loose my mind, I cound not even control my thoughts or talking. I slept 5 hrs, woke up, felt ok,but somehow, it was not enougth because right now i feel like heck which is def not enought of sleep. BUT I do get som much done.


Please post back, and when i wake up later tonight ,ill corrrect any mistakes and I would like feed back and will work on this. I do have somewhat of a plan.


ONe last question, Why is it after you stay ujp for long time, then you sleep , or when you stay up the adderall doesnt work at ALL!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, you ask for imput...
When I am out of meds. currently it's ritilin, I start haveing insomnia... The racing thoughts come back, and My mind won't slow down for me to sleep.
Okay, you are an overindulger, and when you get that kind of focus, you at first are lovin it, but I think that you are raising the dopamine level to high, and between, the meds you take, and supplements, diet and exercise, you shouldn't need as much as someone else. I feel your overloading, then your body stops producing it on it's own.

Now heres where your seeing the problem. You start talking to someone that is not there,..... well that just depends on personal opionion. They were there in your mind. It will start creating this because of the overload of the stimulant. Yeah, I know what you are thinking... You really need less. thats what causes the irretableness. Because now, things (parts of your brain) are taking a nap, seeing how all these meds are doing this job.

I have to have higher doses of the med. and I was told because of the hormone thing right now. Now you whom is a body builder with all that protein and all those supplements, and you are taking a very high dose. and I feel you should need less. because you are so healthy.
You probably over indulge in everything you do. And I always feel the answers to ones questions, are usually right in front of use. And we really should have seen it.
But half the time we have blinders and rose color glasses on, and go about it all the wrong way.
Personaly, I have to say, I seen this coming with you, and I have more to say, I catch you in a little while...
