I am prescribed 60mg of methylphenidate daily and I sometimes don't even take it once during a week. 60mg is probably what I take in a month. The magic of this medicine will wear off and turn into addiction if you take it daily.
You don't have ~~*ADHD*~~, you are just a man that is not passionate about what you do on a daily basis
Take it sparingly when needed at low of a dosage as possible.
And what about the actual executive functioning deficits and cognition inherent in people with actual attention deficit disorders their entire lives? Should just try harder and be more passionate obviously... even if they already are. That'll fix everything
>you are just a man that is not passionate about what you do on a daily basis
So thats why i have trouble paying attention while driving! Its because i am not passionate about it! Thank you Dr. Crab, next time when i nearly get into a car accident again i will just remember to be passionate about driving

Amphetamines are great for focus and energy at first, but it quickly becomes manic, anxious, psycho energy and insomnia before you know it.
So for every two weeks you're on it, take a week off. It will feel more magic when you take it again, and you won't turn into a psychotic weirdo.
Thanks for the advice. I definitely don’t plan on using them forever and indefinitely. But once I my life is in a decent place I will have more options of coping. Do you do anything specific to reduce comedown?
The on/off protocol will prevent most "come down" or withdrawal stuff, you'll notice it gets harder to sleep towards the end of the second week. I use kratom or benadryl, kratom is the "healthier" option.
Try kratom with it once or twice on the peak, it's better than sex. But keep yourself strict about your dosing schedule because that shit is addictive as absolute fuck together. That "better than sex" thing isn't some kind of exaggeration.
What country? I just ordered some for a European friend, it's legal basically everywhere and there's places that ship international. If you can get a mild benzo, that works great too.
NZ, we have a completely different drug market. Can’t get cocaine or most normal things like that

Fuck New Zealand. Jesus.
Probably one of 3 first world countries to make kratom illegal.
Well gabapentin, benadryl, couple shots of vodka, anything that will slow your brain down helps. If you can get any kind of benzo at least, that's ideal.
It's speed. It can permanently ruin you. The fact that you got this from a doc doesn't change its nature. If you are ok about going on daily amphetamines then do what you want. Remember you were warned.

Ritalin isn't an amphetamine or related to them you armchair expert. They even work differently than adderall or dextroamphetamine.
Are Americans still using the meme “adhd” made up shit to cope with the fact that then want to use amphetamines? I thought it was disproved a while ago

tldr of the current understanding is the "oi focus ya damn tismo" part of your brain is sleepy in adhdfags, and the stimulants get that up to normie speed
which is why medicinal meth makes them feel more normie while having the opposite effects in normalfags
supposedly
Not that guy and if I lived in a perfect world. I would be fine enough to not need adhd medications, but since we are in hell. I will do whatever it takes to make enough money and gtfo
ADHD is a meme is a meme. A 1970s meme which you still believe because your mom told you so. And because it protects your ego.
ADHD is the most well studied of all mental health diseases, with clear consensus on its existence, and with mountains of evidence both for its huge damage to society and individuals and for the degree of efficacy of the possible treatments.
Amphetamines are fucking awesome but you should only take it sporadically.
Methylphenidate on the other hand, can be taken long term and is neuroprotective and neurogeneretive.
ADHD is a meme is a meme is a meme.
A brain doesn't have to be "normal" to be healthy, if normal is defined as fitting into the man-made structures like the educational system and 9 to 5 workplace cubicles.

Unfortunately we live in the 21st century now. Back in the stone ages having ADHD was actually useful for hunting and shit but today it has so little benefits while giving you so many disadvantages when youre trying to fit into modern society that it has to be considered a disorder. Back then it wasnt important to remember appointments, back then you couldnt accidently kill someone because you didnt pay attention while driving and back then you also didnt have to focus on anything for a extendend periode of time much less focus on something that is complicated. Unfortunately shit has changed and unless you plan to live off the grid in a forest you will have to go through a lot of shit just to make it through the day

While I don't disagree with what you say, this way of thinking will eventually lead to the demise of society. If people get changed to fit the system, critical faults in the system will go unchallenged and can grow until the whole thing collapses.

Anon, we as a species are destined to fail. Its unironically hopeless to rebel against it, neither me nor you nor anyone else can stop us all from running straight at our doom.
They made me really fucking horny and gave me an even harder time focusing. The only upside is that it made monotonous manual labour more enjoyable, but you could accomplish the very same thing a lot cheaper just from street meth. All in all slave pills. Your psychiatrist is not there to help, he's there to make you a docile obedient little cuck while earning some drug money in the process.
I just tried one day without my meds but I felt better just more sleepy. I could laugh more and feel more emotions. The meds help a lot with my distracted focus though. What should I do? Only take during important times?
Is there types of ADHD that make you retarded? How the fuck can you not pay attention to the road while driving?
Theres that much shit to keep track of on the road that it's one of the small number of things I will happily concentrate on for hours. Driving is one of my favourite things because of it.
You can't coping mechanism your way out of a brain defect. They can help a bit but theres a good reason why meditation is the only recognised treatment which makes any real difference.
Use them occasionally, like once a week or less, then sell the rest to someone else who wants em. Taking this shit everyday will permanently damage the delicate system of neurotransmitters in the brain.
Unless you're absolutely UNABLE to function in society right now without medication, I suspect the costs will outweigh the benefits. I strongly suggest reading pic rel, if only the section on Ritalin, before you decide to pop one of these pills.
Inform the decision you make, because once you're medicated you can't go back.
Fix your diet retard. You're going to get addicted to meth because some homosexual in a white coat told you that it's the only treatment? Get a vasectomy too so the next generation is saved a few average IQ points.
there is usually an issue that can not be identified by doctors because they are not looking, like food allergies, that create issues that are helped by these drugs. i would look at gluten, celiacs disease, or diary, or egg allergies before beginning these types of drugs. elimination diet instead of allergy tests will help you more than any test. even if you handle the pills well for months, in the end, it will end badly and cause more harm then good. your body is not naturally adhd, bipolar, add, etc something is causing it, and almost guarantee its something you eat.
I take methylphenidate mon to thur then take fri to sun off.
This schedule works great for me. It gives my brain a rest and prevents tolerance build-up. I don't need the meds at weekends anyway as I'm just chilling. If I need a boost some caffeine and a cold shower does the trick.
I prefer the instant release variety as it gives me finer control over my day and I can time when the meds wear off and prevent them fucking with my sleep.
Been on stimmies (adderall, vyvanse) since I was 7 and have no issues. I take it on workdays and don’t on the weekend. My appetite is the only difference.
Perhaps I’ll have heart issues when I’m older but whatever, it feels like a cheat code in life to be more dialed in than everybody.
adderall is good. I'm prescribed 40mg per day but taking them every day (as prescribed) defeats the purpose, makes you super dependent, tired asf without taking them, etc. Mental rebounding when you stop. I take 7.5mg per day now, and not every day at all. Now if I decide to take 10-15mg I feel completely amped, yet not dependent.
Amphetamines are neuro-toxic, even if they're prescription so I don't recommend taking them. Regular use will screw up your sleep cycle and you'll be less effective in the gym. This is something I know from personal experience.
Proscribed 10mg a day I take long breaks between (months).
Super helpful to restart the brain when my symptoms start showing up and I'm all over the place
Don't sit on it yearly and you gonna be ok.

Unironically yes
Just like depression and anxiety, it is not a chemical imbalance or problem, it is an environmental problem.
even the guy who basically came up with ADHD said it’s a fictitious disease in his old age. Look it up
its a physical phenomenon dude
Yeah and you don’t have it. That was his point. Look it up

adhd is literally a brain defect
But it's true that adhd meds are overprescribed to people who don't have adhd
>adhd is literally a brain defect
Imagine still believing this shit in 2022
I'll bet you still believe depression is a chemical imbalance
There's clear structural and activation differences between adhd and neurotypical brains.
It was believed to be behavioral until medical technology allowed us to look at the brain in detail.
Anyone who believes adhd doesn't real is ableist as well as an ignorant cunt.
