I love Adderall. But I didn’t really feel right until I started using weed. The combination leaves me with a blank, calm mind that allows me to focus. You’ll take weed from my cold, dead hands.
I’m unfortunate because while weed is a great disassociative recreation for me and basically a part of my culture, it seriously suppresses my ability to think through complex issues in the way that’s required for the technical work / hobbies I do, while adderal and other stimulant-type meds make me very tense and aggravated even at low doses. I’ve heard good things about clonadine though, non-stimulant adhd med, I’ve got plans to ask my doc about it.
I’m on clonidine because I have a multi-generational family history of aortic dissection. I was on vyvanse for about two years before my dad’s aorta killed him. I’ve never been more on top of my life than when I was on a stimulant. But clonidine absolutely does help me focus, and it reduces the noise in my head, even if the effects are less profound than the stim.
I just added buproprion back into my daily meds, hoping that’s going to help more with the executive dysfunction
I was on 2mg/day patch, but had to switch to pills because my skin hated the adhesive. For some reason the pills hit me harder so I’m on 0.5mg/2x/day at present
i’m on the same extended. do you feel “hollow” at abt 3pm? like your upper chest, jaw, sinuses are just … empty in a way that says “sleep needed but also probably not?”

How many mg is of clonidine are people on?

weed makes me anxious and panic. why? booze makes me puke. so ya. cheap date, i am.
I have an extended-release Ritalin prescription that I take every morning. It’s amazing. Best stuff in the world.
But oh, man, adding an edible 2-3 times a week before bed leaves me SO much more able to function during the week.
Before those two, life was stressful as all hell.
But with those two things, I’m kicking ass and taking names all week long.
