Was using adderall to plow though some reading material and suddenly felt the right side of my face tingle and go numb, I then looked in the mirror and my face had slightly drooped. Immediately went to the hospital and it turns out I had a TIA whats basically a transitory stroke, im now on high blood pressure and high cholesterol medications and im not even overweight, I'm also only 31 with the possibility of a full on stroke always on the horizon.

If you have a history of heart issues, just leave stimulants of any form alone tbh, im even wary of coffee at this point.

    I had a friend who was basically a vyvanse guinnea pig from a young age. A few years ago he had a chest MRI and the doctor was like "did you know you had a heart attack?"

    To be fair he was taking doses around 120-160 mg of vyvanse and doing crazy shit and now has an amazing job where he's basically a jack of all trades and doesn't touch the stuff anymore.

    No moral to the story here. Choose your path western man.

      At that dose you might as well be smoking meth, that blows my mind.
