So today I experimented, I took 5mg every two hours instead of 10mg every 4 hours... so a slower buildup if you will and more regular amount of dextroamphetamine in blood stream at once... since the mental effects leave before the blood level is halved... in research I learned this.

Anyway, about 30 minutes ago after taking the 5th pill (1 more to go today) I finally was slowed down enough like I used to be. No euphoria, but I am so happy because I am simply in my environment right now. My head is completely silent save for the thoughts needed to do whatever it is I am doing right now. I am listening to music and for the first time in weeks I can simply listen to it and follow it. Do you know what I mean? Your short term memory is working well enough and your mind is quiet, so you are able to actually follow along with the music without becoming bored in spots, etc.

Even better would be if it motivated me to do something off this laptop, but that won't happen without l-amp or MPH and I dont want those so... oh well gonna ask for 15mg TID next time I go in...

I am glad you found a way to make it work for you :)

Good luck with the motivation to do other things

Does that help you get motivated. I was at the doc today and while the depression is better, the Stratterra was not doing the job anymore. So now he put me on Ritalin 10 mg BID. I did read to start at 5mg and ramp up after a week or so.

It seems I have been tired and not wanting to do a damn thing at work. I am so bored it sucks...

Well dudes it only worked for a couple hours tops at the end of the day... and I definitely dont want to make a habit of taking them like that, as my intuition says keeping the level up like that of a tweaker would induce tolerance much faster.

There was a constant build up rather than hills and valleys I suppose. Could have been placebo, as I said only worked the last couple hours of the day on them.

Not going to do it again. Just stick to my 10mg TID, hopefully go up to 15mg TID next time I get into see him, which could be next month or August or September... just gonna keep on keeping on.
