In reply to Amphetamine intake over time decrease creativity?, posted by jonathanupr on July 8, 2006, at 15:01:46
Yes,
I was on Adderall Dexedrine, for 10 years. Low doses cause dopamine release to "rest" while it does stimulate at first, it decreases the impulses of dopamine flow. Thats why you feel so ugh, lifeless. Higher doses do the opposite, you are more creative, alot more, since higher doses stimulate dopamine out of the synapse continually, which there is alot more dopamine that is in the synapse, thats why you feel more creative, ambitious, up.
60mg of Adderall usally did that for me. Some people take that regulary, but over time since i have taken Adderall, well really Dexedrine for a long time, it wears you down at high doses repeatedly, and to a degree very bad. You feel horride. I mean you have to recover.
Anyways, see if you can go up a little on the dose. Lower doses, 25mg cause you to be this way. They decrease the eletrical impulse on ADHD, ADD people.
Best luck!
