    Ok cool I really wanna take Adderall because I have soo much trouble revising and I'm doing soo bad in school butt i haven't done it just because of the fearmongering from people telling me I'm gonna be an addict who cant function without it and I'll ruin my life. Can someone just tell me without all the fearmongering whether it's addictive like alcohol or like meth and heroin or is it like lean. Just so I can make an informed choice

      I tried this recently. Took 20mg (which is probably 2x average prescribed dose) when I last had to do some writing. As far as I know, addiction is unlikely unless you get carried away. I mean kids are prescribed to take it every day,.

      About half an hour after taking it, I started to feel a bit high. I was able to concentrate very intensely one thing , like crafting a sentence. On the other hand, switching between tasks felt more difficult. If I had to look at a source instead of writing, it took me a long time to find and start reading the right page for instance. Also, wicked dry mouth. I babbled to my roommate for a while about random shit and excitedly read her parts of my essay, which I was very convinced was the best scholarship ever. She didn't realize I was high though, so it couldn't have been too obnoxious. The experience was reminiscent of smoking a strong Sativa, but more productive . Fair warning, though, the next day I felt like shit. I had a headache reminiscent of a hangover, and no energy to do anything. I hate hangovers, and this feeling was enough to make me swear off subsequent Adderall experiments.

      I definitely would not recommend taking it like I did for school though. You could probably get a prescription easily enough (with health insurance) and see if it helps.

        No such thing in my country unfortunately and what you described sounds pretty good for the work I need to do. I think I'll grab some in bulk when I'm abroad and just flush if it doesn't help or I get too attached, Thanks tho
