is there any way that i can prevent the jaw clenching? any little tricks or anything?
i was totally unaware of it at the time, but now 2 days later, my jaw is still mad sore and it hurts to eat. anything to prevent it in the future, or should i just suck it up and deal with it?

actually i forgot witch one it is.but either 5-htp or melatonin,helps prevent jaw clenching,so do a little research on those.

Adderall was fun back in high school.. i think you should add something about amphetamine potentiators such as baking soda or certain fruits.. a few tums can make that ~50mg dose oh so much better ..

I've got a friend who does the same shit... I think it means that you really do have shit on your chest, and when you're coming down you're just more vulnerable and stressed. Try smoking some weed when you come down. Although if you smoke while your amped, then get burnt out while you come down... that can just suck even more.

Well I was thinking about it before, but I didn't because I didn't know enough and heard more negative things about it than positive. I'm going to get more experience with it myself before I write up anything on it, but I plan to.

So, kind of a random question: I was separating the 25mg XRs I have into a dose of IR and a dose of XR (the full 25mg XR dose makes me too on edge, but if I take a bit out, the XR dose is perfect) and the stupid capsule for the XR broke. I had other meds around that were in capsules, so I opened those up, emptied them out and put the XR beads into those. Will that make any difference in how the XRs are released, or is the time release stuff specifically on the beads only?

[theVirtuoso]

The time release is from the beads, not the capsule. You're good to go

Right on, thanks man!

I snorted a 5mg instant release and then about 30 minutes later i took 50 mg's of time release. I've been doing adderall for about 3 months now and i love it. But today is the first time that i feel really out of it and i just feel like shit in general. I don't feel sick. But like usually on adderall i feel great and i want to talk to people and stuff and everything in life feels fine but today me and my friend went to the mall and i couldnt stop thinking of how much it sucked seeing all these people walking around, i don't even know why cuz i never feel like that. then my buddy met up with his girlfriend and i hung out with them for a while, but the entire time we were hanging out i felt like they secretely didnt want me around them and that i was just causing problems for people all day long.

So now im just chillin in my room and i feel a little better now that im alone but man this is not how adderall usually is for me? Do you guys know why or have you had similar experiances?

I did do a couple things differently this time than any other time i've taken adderall. This is the first time i've ever taken an instant release (its also the first time i've ever snorted a pill), And this is the first time that i have taken the pills with gatorade instead of water. Could these things have made a difference? btw its 4pm now and i took the pills at 1pm, so the pills are still affecting me.

Just took a 15mg IR adderall, would it be safe to take 1mg of klonopin sometime soon? Like within the next few hours. I have a high benzo tolerance, so i'm pretty sure i'll be fine.

yo... That guide was AWESOME! I've never heard before that withdrawal symptoms include chronic sleep until this thread and it like opened my eyes because I take adderall during the week for school and work.. though occasionally I'll skip a day or two, but mostly I'll take it Mon-Fri, and anyway on the weekends I will sleep like I'm in hibernation!! It's not just one day of catch up sleep to make up for my tireless week.. it's literally Friday night asleep by 9 p.m, Sat. wake up at about 3 or 4 p.m, and the same for Sat. night and Sun. night I'll go to bed early but just have to wake up on Mon. for class... but anyway I feel normal now so thanks! lol... I also really liked how you stressed to not take more adderall to compensate coming down for that day or something, it's so true you might as well just sleep it out and wake up feeling so much better and with more adderall!

I gotta go to class now but I have a question also... I usually take about 30 mg of xr in the morning then another 20 around 2 or 3 and then another like 15 or 20 around maybe 6 or 6:30 which is TERRIBLE because on these nights I cannot effing sleep and it drives me crazy... the reason i take that 3rd one is cuz I have class 3 nights a week that begin at 7 p.m and by then I feel like the 20 mg from 3p.m is gone, so like idk, do you think i should just take a bigger second dose at 3, and just stop taking it at all at 7 pm? Thanks a lot for your time!

First, sorry I haven't replied here in awhile, the few times I've checked back I was so out of it I couldn't piece together anything I read, heh.

It sounds more like a mentality thing... could be something else going on unrelated to the Adderall. I think it has to do with the snorting/instant release. You come down in 1/2 the time of XR with instant, and when you insufflate you come down even faster. When you come down from Adderall it can leave you in such a mood, so it is likely that's the reason.

Well obiously I'm quite late on this one, but even though I wouldn't have recommended it, those are both low doses and with your tolerance it's not really a problem. I would have just waited as long as possible to be as safe as possible.

I gotta say thanks first off, because I completely forgot about that withdrawal symptom. I've been sleeping more often lately, but I just brushed it off because I'm used to feeling tired and I also sleep a lot more from time to time.

This time, however, I think it's because of withdrawal. I take 60mg every other day, and I noticed if I haven't taken it in more than a day I get the same headache and I never get headaches. I've been fearing this, but I knew it would happen so I gotta change the routine up.

As for your current situation, I would recommend only taking two doses in a day, however you can try making your 2nd and 3rd or even just your 3rd dose instant release so you come down faster.

Even though I'm sure it would help, I doubt they will sticky this because they've already stated pandora's box isn't the "other drugs" forum.

Yeah thats true...oh well you still have a pretty informational thread, +Rep

Alright I'm not sure if this will help me but I have 2 tests this week (Im working all week too) so I'm going to try adderal to help me study. I have a test monday and I might take it that morning (Not sure if this is a good idea, since it will be my first time on it) when I review all the stuff for my test. Any recommendations?
