I actually just got my prescription today for Adderal XR 20mg and I took it at about 3PM. It's been 3 1/2 hours now and so far I'm still DPDRed but I feel more grounded, relaxed, and much less irritable. According to google, the peak for adderall seems to be 7 hours. So maybe something will happen in the next couple of hours. Also, I do feel less DPDR at night compared to morning so there's that. I really want to try taking CBD phenibut or kratom with the Adderall, but I should probably see what the Adderall does on its own first.
Day 2: Took the adderall at 10:35AM. Went for a run to the elementary school that I went to and ran a few sprints across the grass field. I even took off my running shoes and socks because I had heard there was some health benefits to having your barefeet in direct contact with the earth. Definitely not scientifically proven, but I thought, "why not?". The itchiness that I feel now IS making me more aware of my own feet though. So, I guess it did something. Adderall definitely increases my ability to stay present, focused, and more energy but emotionally it doesn't seem to be doing much. It does let me actually meditate which helps my dpdr. Another plus is that I feel motivated to do things, making healthy smoothies and staying hydrated is pretty easy to maintain on adderall. I've got a sink full of dishes and I think I can actually wash them today. I was able to take a 10 minute cold shower because of Adderall and right now I feel a lot more alive. I've been following the nofap community and they advocate taking cold showers as well. Now I understand the mental benefits. I think inflammation can really effect the mind. Adderall has made me feel more grounded so maybe I'm not as sensitive to the cold. Usually I can only do like 20 seconds. I feel like I can take an ice bath right now. Hopefully I don't catch a cold. I also feel like I have the energy to properly work out. I feel like I can deadlift 20 reps easy when usually I can barely do 5.
Day 3: Took my third dose at around 7am. I decided to decrease the dosage to about 15mg because I felt head pressure yesterday at 20mg. I've also taken CBD Oil, phosphatidylserine, L carnitine, L tyrosine, and NAC. It's 7:30 am and right now I already feel much better than yesterday. Instead of running today, I'm gonna try practicing tennis serves for 30 minutes and see how it afffects my dp. Things are starting to feel oddly familiar.. I'm starting to feel more human and real. I feel more self aware. 2pm and now I feel I feel unmotivated, numb, and irritable. Went to the gym and did some working out and TRE and felt really good, but didn't effect my dp. It's 10:18pm now and I guess I've just been dealing with the comedown? I feel really numb and blank.
Day 4: I don't think Adderall is really for dpdr. I can only see it helping motivation and energy which then actually lets you do things like working out, meditation, nofap, and eating healthy.
