/r/Stims Info and Guides:

Does concerta or stimulants in general require users to take sedatives? Personally, Concerta (MPH) works well for me, however the basic anxiety I have which is not corrected but redirected elsewhere and in the evening the extra nervousness pushes me to take Diazepam 20 mg per day, to stay calm and not too nervous under the effect of MPH whatever the dosage, but I noticed this with other stimulants too, do you have this problem too? Do you take sedatives (benzos, weed, alcohol) to unwind during the day or in the evening because of your stimulant?

Personally without it I am nervous all the time, whatever the dosage, and I cannot sleep and during the day I am on the verge of tears or a nervous breakdown depending on the situation even if the therapeutic effect is there it is undeniable apart from this nervousness, anxiety even without taking it but which is at another level under prescribed stimulant.

Greetings from Mother Russia! I am interested in stimulants, both active (amphetamines, cathinones) and passive-cumulative. I have compiled a list of various substances/drugs that (probably) will not fry your brain in the first month of use that I would like to discuss:

~Active Drugs: Amphetamine and/or Adderall (low doses) # Modafinil # Ritalin (methylphenidate) # Phenibut # Phenylpiracetam # Noopept # PRL-8-53 # Caffeine # Guarana # Sulbutiamine # Deanol # Vinpocetine # Vincamine # Piracetam # L-Theanine # Bacopa Monnieri # Ashwagandha # Creatine # Magnesium

~Passive-cumulative drugs: Ginseng # Rhodiola rosea # Lecithin # Glycine # Cortexin # Coenzyme Q10 # Levocarnitine # Nicotinamide (vitamin B3) # Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) # Tocopherol (vitamin E) # Omega-3 fatty acids.

I realize that the list is extremely incomplete. Let's fix this together - tell about your stimulant experience NOT in the context of parties/rest, but for work, study, for creativity; for self-improvement. Write down the combinations you took and what effect they had on you. Let's once and for all decide on such a biohacker's manual. It would be priceless to hear the opinions of doctors/neurobiologists/chemists! Thank you!

beautiful experience, never felt anything like it. I’d only done weed and taken like less than a mg of shrooms and adderall was very different. Took one adderall ir at 7:45am in the morning because I had a big test at 8:30. I let it dissolve under my tongue cuz ChatGPT said it was a good way to maximize effects and by 8:33 I had decided it was a fake pill, i started the test and just felt nothing crazy. But a few mins passed by and the effects got stronger, I was able to recall a lot of info in like 15mins and I was finished first. Left and smoked a bit from my cart but by then I was definitely feeling the effects. The weed definitely make it stronger and It lasted awhile, I’m still feeling very on edge at 2:47pm and just can’t stop thinking about taking more but I lost my other pill. Definitely a good experience, would recommend finished a lot of work. But if you get addicted easily, not for you I can’t stop thinking about buying more 😅.

Wondering if this can cause low back tightness.

If I take pre workout for like 10-12 days. My low back starts getting crazy tight. It feels like all the blood and lactic acid gets trapped in the area.

Is this what vasoconstriction feels like?

As the title says, it's currently 9:34 and the exam starts at 10 am. I do have a legitimate ADHD diagnosis and usually take 30 mg Vyvanse in the morning with a 15 mg Dexedrine booster in the evening, but it's finals season and I'm a stem person with mental health issues so ya boi barely studied for this exam when I had 3 other classes I care more about. It's luckily completely open note exam, and because of the ADHD diagnosis I have extended time (4 hours instead of 2 and a half). I have the textbook and notes and printed class slides and everything even though I barely studied.

The question is should I take more stims rn with the exam in 30 min? The past few days I've been taking an additional 15 mg of dex in the afternoon with no side effects so far. I usually take l tyrosine beforehand and eat a shit ton of protein during the day, and whenever I have caffeine I make sure to have l theanine first. Im currently in the library and have an energy drink (reign storm 200 mg caffeine and has vitamins and zero sugar) with me as well as said stims and other supplements, and I'm curious if I'll be able to study/absorb knowledge and work faster if I take either more stims or the energy drink.

Trust me it’s a good idea to check if a student is on stimulants

In terms of the effects and high you get from high doses of Adderall vs Meth? What is the main difference between the two? Can small to moderate doses of meth actually feel like Adderall?

Never have done meth and probably never will but I'm curious.

I'm really curious how caffeine affects you. I saw that it calms many people with ADHD, but for me I'm super caffeine sensitive. I drink 2 coffees a day because it helps me get into hyperfocus. But never past 3 o clock or I'll not sleep that night. Like when I last had covid my bf went to get me paracetamol and he accidentally got the caffeine one and I almost had a panic attack an hour after taking them. When I was a child, (3 or 4) my uncle gave me a can of coke and apparently I was even more hyperactive than usual. My dad had to take me for a long walk, then when we got home he was tired and had to lie down and I was still hyper.

I tried a few articles online, but I can't seem to focus on the way they word them. Prefer reading stuff here anyway. Tell me about your experiences with caffeine because I'm just curious lol. Does hyperactive, inattentive or mixed ADHD react differently with it, or is it just per individual?

Have any of you had the realization that you are lying to yourself every day by not recognizing your true potential? And are essentially living a lie?

I had a panic attack the other night and it might have been one of the biggest self realizations I’ve ever had, transcending psychedelics.

The message was that I need to get busy living. And at least become something redeeming in my eyes. Become a goal-oriented person. (It sounds dumb but it’s easier for some, harder for me)

Have any of you felt that way or had this realization, what did it mean to you and did you follow up on it?

What should I expect, 150mg purple molly and 100mg regular. My typical dose is 100mg

so basically i took about two pills and a half
started hallucinating and am still having some effects although way lessen a bit of euphoria At the end i thought i was about to pass out my pupils stayed wide for almost 24 hours and i took some tramadol just recently to see if that'd help calm me out my question is was that an od? and is it safe to take my sleep (quetiapine)medicine if im still having slight effetcs of it or should i wait a few hours mor or not take it at all sorry if mu english is messed up thanku

Long story short I found 30mg dextroamphetamine extended release (XR) on the floor of a public bathroom. I know a lot of pills are pressed ... and that there's fake pharmacies and pills online ... but with the capsules don't you know what you're getting ? 🤔 there's beads in the capsule. The capsule is soggy now due to where I left it ... but yeah. Thoughts?

So this is going to sound kind of crazy now that I think about it.

Pulled an all nighter doing DXM/LSD/DPH/Mescaline power trip. Around 11am that morning, was feeling tired and forgot I had to work so I called up the speed plug. "Yo bro, I know you stopped selling stims but can you please hook me up? It's an emergency ." "I thought you quit, I don't have Addy: just vyvanse." I used to rip Addy but had since been clean for 3 months. Tried vyvanse before and really didn't care for the smoother but more drawn out experience. Realized it was my only option so I bought 4 caps, 40mg each. Popped them all.

Side edit: I do not abuse dph, only use in small amounts (50-100mg) for potentiation and anti nausea.

T +1hr: Comeup came fast and I got a resurgence of energy and my face felt warm and tingly. Euphoria was noticeably strong.

T +2.5hrs: Apparently peaking. Forgot to mention I am definitley feeling residual effects from the crazy combo I did last night; most likely an afterglow from the dxm, lingering pot high and faint visuals from LSD. Currently at work and enjoying an intense stimulation effect from the vyvanse.

T +8hrs: Finished shift at work. Did the usual routine, now sitting down to play some video games. Still stimmed but only about 50% the strength of the peak.

T +12hrs: 🖐🍆 x6. Definitley feeling the sleep deprivation. Heart is skipping every 2nd beat and when it pounds it hits hard 🤕. Typical sleep deprivations hallucinations begin apparating at moderately alarming rates, (almost similar to a deleriant trip.)

T +18hrs: Lying here awake. Depressed as hell. But I vowed to never regret my drug actions because I'm sigma 🐺. Accepting my fate as the shadows dance.

T +26hrs: Fast forward to next day. Shift starting soon and I still haven't slept. Just awake. Sleep deprivation hallucinations noticeably decreased: leading me to think the ones last night were actually poteniated by stim psychosis and after effects of the combo on the first night.

T +28hrs: Work is called off. Now I am sitting in bed, don't want to do anything but sleep won't come.

T +37hrs: Had dinner. Forgot to mention before that I have been making sure to eat and drink lots despite zero appetite or motivation to do literally anything.

T +42hrs: Still sitting here awake, watching breaking bad. Strangely enough I am experience none or minimal sleep deprivation hallucinations now despite being up for more than 60 hours. Instead I'm getting intense auditory disturbances and ambient conversation.

T+43hrs(Now): The amazing feeling of exhaustion is finally hitting. Chances are I'm finally getting sleep within the next hour. Scratch what I said about sleep deprivation hallucinations now it's visual too. Objects flickering, dancing shadows and tracers.

Overall I would say this is a great experience if your a fucking masochist. Yet, speaking in terms of experience it is a valuable learning lessonn I guess and honestly the faps were great and the peak was appreciated. Goodnight folks.

Been sitting on a bit of amphetamine for a month, but get drunk every night to sleep I know both cause high blood pressure and cardiovascular problems after a while, is this shit safe? I can already tell sleep isnt a option, even if it's for a couple of hours

80mg vyvanse and some weed. I ordered an auto stroker and holy shit. I can mount this thing anywhere and the pull and suction is amazing. I'm just scrolling porn and letting it do its magic.

It’s all fun and games until tragedy happens. Your sibling. Your dog. Your grandma. Someone’s timer runs out close to you and it just so happens to be when you’re on some shit you thought only Heisenberg himself could produce. In a way, it stopped the sadness of others because they were distracted by how FUCKING GEEKED UP THIS NIQQA IS FR. But the lesson is it sucks when you should be mourning and feeling and being in the moment but can’t because of the substances you took. Take a moment to slow things down speeders. Much love

ive done cocaine, mph, d-amp, mdma, mda (+ mdma) and (what i believe to be) 6-apb (also crack ig) so im not exactly a stim neophyte.

regardless.

how would you rank stims (MDxx and benzofurans included) based on how much they increase (or decrease) music appreciation.

mine goes:

1. mdma + mda

2. mdma

3. d-amp

4. mph (+ alcohol, obviously)

5. cocaine (coke makes music worse even with alcohol, unless on pregabalin or something)

?. 6-apb i dont remember cause too high dose but i imagine it'd be top 1 ~ 3.

im mostly curious regarding meth's music appreciation since i might get the opportunity to try it soon. also pyrros and fluorinated (meth)amphetamines i guess.

thankss

I started with 54mg and felt like I needed more. I now take the 54 then a booster 18 mg Concerta BRAND NAME pull a couple hours after taking the 54. The pill doesn’t last very long, but it sure is better than the generic brand pill.

I heard sniffing em is supposed to feel great. For context i have a massive stimulant tolerance, if that helps with the dosage part. Can i mix with alcohol? Is there anything i shouldnt mix it with?

If there’s one thing I enjoy about stimulants, it’s the fact that I unleash absolute hell on my toilet. I mean, pure Armageddon is being brought upon that ceramic device. It is unjustified what I do to that thing. I feel awful about it. I should be forced to spit shine that thing everyday and take it to therapy for what I put it through.

Got my hands on 10 36mg Concerta tabs. First time taking - usually just abuse my vyvanse script (don’t come at me, remember what sub we’re in) how many should I take for a good stim?

Edit: spelling + flair

Okay I’m prescribed vyvanse and it’s good don’t get me wrong but I’m also a meth addict with ADHD and can’t seem to completely drop the meth because it helps me the most and is the most consistent stimulant and I honestly think Dexedrine is the best way to go for me to drop meth. With vyvanse longest I was clean was 2 months but I eventually got to where I started needing double the dose for the full benefits. I think Dexedrine would help with the comedowns too because of multiple doses a day. Vyvanse lasts only 4 or 5 hours sometimes if that. Meth helps me function so well and shit it’s unfortunate fr idk exactly what to do should I try talking to my psych or switch psychs?

Adderall and alcohol? or coke and alcohol?

Always had issues with both and cut out the stims for about 6 months and slowly reintroducing (prescribed adderall only). Also have a few klonapin for anxiety which evens out my heart rate.

To add clarity I’m a veteran in the substances I’ve taken in the past and know the pros and cons of mixing and consequences. Asking for 3rd party opinions on the initial question. Please and thanks fellow redditors ✌️

I posted this stuff in the past few days like 10 times to different subreddit for someone to care about me lol😂

So basically i did around who knows how many mg caffeine back in summer for 3 weeks, basically i did a 5 teabag tea which is around 150 mg caffeine and i drank it, because before i never drank coffe or any caffeinated drink i and i heard in my country prisons people do it and get energetic and i wanted to try.

It gave me a nice energy boost. In the blink of an eye i stay up for 30-40-50 hours on it constantly redosing every 6 or so hours with it and due to sleep deprivation and who knows why else but basically i fell into (most probably) sleep deprivation induced psychosis i tried to off myself while high on benzos and alcohol at school (tried to jump out of a window) and yeah i ended up in psych ward they wrote on my papers “temporarily psychosis and autism” as a diagnoses.

After it i realized i dont want to do it again and people (relatives, close ones, even my psychistrist) said i should never use that many who knows how many dose of caffeine again.

And basically i didnt do it…

Until yesterday where i got 20, 100 mg caffeine pills.

Took 4 of those (so 400 mg) and drank an insane caffeine tea (around 150 mg caffeine) and i was legit feeling like some very small level of tweaking like my thoughts were racing, i felt a pure insane energy boost, i wanted to talk constantly and talked to myself playing up different scenarios in my head and yeah, after five hours the effects went away and got back to normal but still had trouble falling asleep on the night.

Now today i took again 400 mg caffeine pills and 150 mg caffeine tea. Im waiting for it to kick in.

In 2 hours i will go to group therapy and tell the therapists’s there that im “high” as fuck / energized.

Does anyone do some dumb shit like me because you cant get / dont want to get “real” stimulants?

Please make me feel better about myself that not im the only one who does insane caffeine amounts. XDDD😂😂🤣🤣

I have been using stims for about 4 years (typically coke, sometimes amph in large quantities) I have managed to maintain my health for the most part apart from my fucked up nose every other weekend.

I have had consistent issues with taking XYZ stim on a wednesday night and then calling in sick for work, I have done this a dozen times this year and did it so many times with my previous job that I lost it.

Last week I scored a bag of meth, 1 gram. This was my first time and I smoked this whole gram over the course of 4 days, I didnt eat or sleep for 3 of those days.

I lie to my family, my workplace, and most of my friends, nobody knows that I do this shit (apart from my sister), I am so ashamed of what I do and genuinely feel like I cannot stop. I have diagnosed ADHD and have no impulse control.

Every time that I do a stim on a weekday once the trip is over I feel this overwhelming guilt of not coming in to work, it literally made me bawl my eyes out last night because I feel like such a failure, I had an outburst with my mum (who mind you never treated me well as a kid) to which I wont be spending the holidays with her (my choice).

I cant see anything getting better, I am hopelessly addicted to not being sober whatever it is I need weed, speed, coke, ketamine, clonazepam, nicotine and now, meth.

I am really at a crossroad in my life, I have tried to quit but coming back always tempts me and it honestly feels so fucking good. I can't find a hobby, I cant do things which challenge me because I cannot devote myself to tasks because of my ADHD making this so difficult, I cant even sit around and just relax because my mind tells me "get up and smoke".

To top it all off, at the start of this year I binged 3 grams of mephedrone in one session, I couldnt work that week due to it fucking my blood pressure, so you know what I did? I lied to my boss and said that my brother had died, the things that I do to do drugs are so fucking deplorable and I just dont understand what goes through this thick fucking brain of mine to make these decisions.

I didnt post this as a "what do I do?!" sort of post, I just want to get this all off my chest. I am honestly fucked, I just need some friends.

If u see my other post, yk I'm geeking hard! it's 5:11 am Yayyyy Gonna have coffee soon. But on a real note I have no idea why but I'm feeling a great sensation of very deep thought patterns.

These aren't specific in a bad or good way, I just Feel like I'm getting Way to engaged in thought At the moment.

The Highs, The lows, I love it all. I feel like the character development from stimulant abuse Can be beneficial in some ways.

To go further into this, imagine something you hate doing, for me the never ending cycle of abuse has made me realize that you aren't always gonna be doing what you want or having fun in life!!! So therefore all of these memories of my addiction Help me push myself through rough times, because let's be honest nothing shitty will compare to coming down off a long binge with nothing left.

I understand the risks and how the negative effects get worse overtime, At the moment I'm dealing with some intense feelings of parinoa(Every single noise is freaking me out rn) I'm currently on 400mg concerta, dosed around 7 hours ago.Still feeling well! :)

Bumping some tunes right now Vibing Thinking About All the possibilities of tomorrow, I'm excited!!!!

Today i went to my psychiatrist and got precribed paroxetin (brand name “rexetin” here) antidepressant ssri, im not a hardcore stim user by any means, only thing i do is take 400+ caffeine (usually around 600 mg) at once and get an energy boost for like 5 hours where i dance in my room. I used to do this caffeine energy boosting for three weeks daily in summer and now last week / yesterday got back onto this “energy boosting” lifestyle.

Can i take my newly prescribed medication and the high dose caffeine together?

Idk shit about how these drugs work.

Thanks

Took 400mg concerta in the last 4 hours🥳🥳🥳 Heart beat moving my chest

Can’t sleep 5am here come cheer me up On Valium weed and good coke wtf
