"By accident"

Goodness. Stimulants are the o ly thing keeping the horrors of the next day at bay.

At night? i broke my rule and drank a single fucking coffee at lunch, it's now 4 am and I haven't slept yet.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

For me, stimulants at bedtime make me sleepy. Weirdest fucking thing.

Paradoxical stimulant reaction, your brain gets enough dopamine to function and realizes you are tired.

Amphetamines and caffeine= sleepy time

[-] Broadfern@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

Probably easier to relax when your brain shuts up

[-] GerardsGuitar@retrolemmy.com 5 points 1 day ago

That's what I found

Same. I think it's quite common for some people with adhd.

Melatonin might help

If I take melatonin when I’m not on my meds, I fall asleep fast enough but don’t sleep very well and have odd dreams.

If I take my meds but not melatonin, I tend to stay awake a long time.

If I take melatonin while my meds are in my system, I sleep for almost exactly 7.5hrs and wake up automatically, well rested.

No idea why that is. Anyone else relate?

okay but hear me out. stimulants right before peak exhaustion so that I'll have vivid dreams about people I miss

Taking the Adderall is necessary before sorting the Adderall.

I would take vyvanse, then pass out and get woken up 2hr later by it. Loved it at the time. But I decided I was abusing it and needed to stop. I just raw dog life now.

Smoke/vape/dab some weed. A good strain high in mycrene, linalool, and/or terpinoline will override even the strongest stimulants.

Huh? Your previous comment has no downvotes...

Deleted comments still retain their up/downvotes.

It currently has one upvote (from you).

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Well then whatever app you're using to see uovote counts of deleted comments is wrong.

[-] null@lemmy.nullspace.lol 1 points 1 day ago

It comes directly from the server. It's not wrong.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Doesn't matter what you say, I know what I saw with my own eyes.

Please stop replying. I have to get ready for work. You're distracting me.

[-] null@lemmy.nullspace.lol 1 points 1 day ago

At best you got 1 downvote that the person retracted.

Either way adding spam by deleting and reposting because you didn't like the outcome of the voting is poor etiquette?

Please stop replying. I have to get ready for work. You're distracting me.

Huh? Manage your own notifications and distractions... I'm making public posts in a public space.

[-] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 days ago

Sounds like you need better organizational system for your drugs...

I use a pill organizer. Put both the AM and PM meds in the PM side. First time I've ever done that.

[-] GerardsGuitar@retrolemmy.com 7 points 1 day ago

Meanwhile I take my ritalin and go to sleep regularly lol

[-] SuiXi3D@fedia.io 6 points 2 days ago

Meanwhile I take Vyvanse and sleep the night away…

[-] TangledRockets@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago
