Hey, first day with Elvanse!
Was pretty crazy, and tbh 30mg are also too much for me. I find it crazy that this is the standard dose people get.
I had 110+ BPM (If my Mi Band 8 is reliable), slight nausea, 0% appetite etc.
I used Modafinil before to cope with my (then unknown) ADHD and there I took ¼ pill, so also really little.
I prefer to be in control, and this was a lot!
The pills are not delayed (retarded??) and a possible consumption way is powdering over a Joghurt etc.
So I will firstly just try 10mg, maybe 15 or 20. I have a pretty good body awareness, that should be enough.
But still, that stuff lasts 14h+ ! That is intense, longer than a lot of other drugs, even LSD.
This also means that my evening today was kinda gone, because I was so exhausted, like in my brain, a pretty strange feeling.
The alternative, Medikinet, lasts 2-3h which is kind of a joke.
Is there something that lasts 8h? A whole work day would be way better.
Why are 3 comments deleted?
I didnt find anything in the modlog, while my other post was removed as it links to Mastodon.
I find this pretty bad, because deduplicating writing effort is not sustainable

Take into account that Modafinil is very unsafe in combination with many other drugs, such as all benzos. I don’t know how much time you need to be safe, but I’d wait at least a whole day (48 hours after taking Modafinil) before using something that is definitely unsafe with it.
Did you also get it through a EU prescription from a semi-shady, but legal site?
Didnt know that! Will have to look for side effects with Amphetamines.
I got it from Sweden, so yeah.
