Is it the best man made invention? :confusedshrug:

It is until you've been up for 3 days and don't really eat or drink anything and you end up feeling like death.

oh been up for full a day already and i always try to get a snack in, made the rookie mistake of not eating anything last time.

but god i get so much shit done with this miracle drug, too bad is like $10 for 25mg at my campus, my broke ass can only afford some when im going to do a test

Never tried it but I'm intrigued. I have a large test coming next month that contains 500-600 of material. I pondered the idea of taking adderall and rereading the material...

its basically amphetamines, but if i had to choose between amphetamines and adderall id go with the latter. If you are planning on an extended study session you might try adderall xr

I may be wrong but I think it is an amphetamine. Just a mixture. Quote from wiki


By salt content, the active ingredients are 75% dextroamphetamine salts (the dextrorotary or "right-handed" enantiomer) and 25% levoamphetamine salts (the levorotary or "left-handed" enantiomer).

Bruhs is you want to stims get Ethylphenidate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylphenidate). It is related to Methylphenidate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylphenidate), which is the name of the drug in Ritalin. You can order it legally and it gets shipped. Costs about $42 2 get a gram of pure powder which is basically $1 for 25 mgs.

Not giving up the website that's privileged info. But shits straight. I've done it plenty of times and it's safe and good. Really good to do with opiates too.

Do they ship internationally? If they do, mind sharing the website via PM?

[Rizko]

Its a British website and me and a buddy order it to the US with no issues so I'd assume they'd ship it to other countries. We've never had it stopped by customs or anything and I feel like the US has some of the most stringent customs agents around They have good customer service so just shoot them an email and they'll let you know. Ill send you a pm in a sec.

As a warning snorting it will burn your nose. Not unbearably. I think snorting methadone is worse, but it does hurt for a second. You can smoke it in a freebase pipe. It works fine that way. Tastes like black licorice

I'm going to make a doctors appointment this week because I need to start taking this. I'm taking Engineering, linear algebra, chemistry, and a sociology class this term. No way I pass them all on my own. If any of you have an online subscription to The New Yorker you should read the article about this drug.

[Shade8780]

What does Adderall do? Does it give you the drive to work/study, keep you awake so you get more work done, or do you just take more information in? If it's the first or third, I don't get why more people use it.

In a study published recently in the Journal of the American Medical Association, a group led by Nora Volkow, the director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, scanned the brains of ten men after they had been given a placebo, and also after they had been given a dose of modafinil. The modafinil appeared to lead to an increase in the brain chemical dopamine.

This is a very important point.
One of the main transmitters that amphetamines stimulate the release of is dopamine. Dopamine cannot cross the blood brain barrier so dopamine is sequestered in and around brain cells. When dopamine is metabolised, the resulting metabolites are toxic to brain cells and chronic abuse of amphetamines leads to a much higher risk of developing parkinsons.

I could be wrong but doesn't it block the reuptake as opposed to stimulate the production like opiates? IDK if it really makes a difference but does the difference in how they work have anything to do with getting parkinsons, meaning do they both increase it or is it only stimulates?

I dnt **** with Adderall really, not my shit, but I wouldn't pay more then $6, maybe $7 for like a single or 2 where your not getting a deal

Opiates do not stimulate the production of dopamine. They bind to opioid receptors and inhibit GABA neurons(inhibitor of dopaminergic neurons), and as a result, indirectly increases dopamine release. I have never read anything that says opiates directly stimulate the production of dopamine.
Amphetamines do both. Well not stimulate production, but stimulate release(via VMAT2) and block reuptake.

I would say chronically abusing any drug that increases dopamine release(both opiates and amphetamines do this through different mechanisms) into the synaptic cleft is a very fast way to develop a neurodegenerative disorder.

With regards to what you said in the 1st part your probably right. I just read some basic stuff. Nothing as in depth as you read. I just knew they acted in different ways but wasn't sure of the exact difference or exactly how they worked.

I mostly was concerned about your second point and appreciate your insight

[The_Yearning]

Amphetamines act indirectly on the receptors with the net result of more NE production (indirectly blocking NE reuptake) unlike other Adrenergic stimulants. What that means is that you need NE for the Adderall to work aka you need to be sleeping to reproduce that NE after it's used up. That's why Adderall timing is very important which is why you hear so many people complain about the "crash". There is no crash if you use it correctly (and that does not necessarily mean using it how your Doctor told you).

so what your saying is take it in the morning ?

I am def gonna give them a try i have so much on at the moment its almost close to impossible to stay focused and con concentrated on work

Take it when you need it (ie when you are about to study). If you are taking it with food make sure there aren't any acids or Vitamin C/Grapefruit juice.

What I meant about the sleeping is that when you sleep, your body reproduces the used up NE that Adderall needs to work. Not everyone has the same amount of NE in their body which is why you hear different results from different people regarding Adderall. I would avoid taking it past 7 unless your normal bed time is 2-4AM. Most important thing is take it on an as needed basis and it would still be effective even if you have been on it for 7 straight years.

So if you know you haven't gotten a good amount of sleep, taking adderall would still work but not as great and this is where the "crash" comes in.

[RoseCity07]

Can any of you tell me what I have to say to my doctor to get adderall?

Do I have to lie? I just want it so I'm more productive when I study. I waste a lot of time that I can't afford to waste.

yeh that makes sense, thanks for that. Not sure if you will know this but if you take adderall can it be detected in the swab tests on the road?

Yup same with anything else. If you use it willy nilly you can suffer some serious lows or with stimulants problems falling asleep. You don't start cocktail hour at 5pm if you want to be up until 12am... you start it at 8. I've not had any problems crashing with adderall personally but I've only taken it a few times (30mg XR). I take it in the morning and around 8am after having a good meal for breakfast (cus I won't be able to put much food away for about 10 hours) and it starts to go from intense focus to kind of a nice high at about 1pm that lasts until about 5... I feel kind of lazy though at that time and then for the rest of the day/night too. I can't fall asleep until about 1-2am but I'm sure with time it wouldn't effect me like that.

But yea, bottom line if you are smart with drugs, the amount and the timings, they are awesome.
