> ps. how did you respond to dextroamphetamine?I tried dexedrine spansules and vyvanse. I liked at first because I was able to focus and get a lot done. the spansules , if I took them at 8:00am, I started to have come down effects at about 11:00am. The vyvanse lasted maybe 30minutes to 60minutes longer before the come down. The come down was pretty brutal for me... and taking a second dose did not act the same as the first dose; it only removed the come down effects, but I didnt feel the benefits very much. eventually after taking it for a month it eventually didnt seem logical to take it anymore because the good effects no longer outweighted the bad effects. the come down for me was I get really talkative and anxious. also one time I took dexedrine spansule before I went to an EDM concert, and by the end of the night when the drug wore off, i felt incredibly depressed. Maybe it was because I had alcohol too
anyway basically I didnt find dexdro to be something that I could take long term and be better off for it. I could be wrong though. I gave it a month or two before I quit.
I'm guessing the dexdro was giving me a euphoric effect which I liked, and then when it wore off (the come down), i was a mess. Then after taking it for a month the euphoria stopped and I just felt icky
