I've taken my largest dose of Adderall yet, 15 mg. I know it's not a lot, but I'm very sensitive to stimulants in general (almost zero caffeine intake). I generally take 5mg at around 9 am and leave it at that. Sometimes I'll take another 5 with lunch. Today I felt extra fuzzy, so I took 10 at lunch instead.

I feel like I'm still scatterbrained, but faster. Still context switching like crazy. Can't follow through things to completion. What gives?

Thanks! Thanks to my hunger being one of the triggers for migraines, I rarely go over 3h awake without food. I do usually take it with food, to both shield the digestive tract and also slow down the absorption of the drug.
