I absolutely did not mean to imply that your seeking a natural way to increase adderall's effects without increasing the dosage was because you wanted to get "high" or anything like that. The thought really never even crossed my mind. Like I said, I've been on Adderall myself and know the down side of it, so I read your post to mean you were wanting your medication to keep working without having to risk increased side effects by increasing the dosage.
My mentioning getting high was because what little info I had came from a site that was pretty much a forum in which people discussed drug experiences. At this site it was easy to see that posts were nearly always (as the posters frankly admitted) about experimentation or "recreational" drug experiences.
So, to sum it up, I wanted to give you the little bit of information I could, but felt it was also important to let you know where it came from, and that from the one experience I read, it didn't seem likely that the baking soda addition would have given you what you were seeking anyway.
I should have been a little more careful in the way I phrased things though and I apologize if it seemed I was implying drug abuse as your motive. I guess that's the biggest problem with communication this way- there's no tone of voice so it's easy for things to come out sounding different than we meant them.
I hope things work out for you soon.
Take care,
Caper

But I want to make it clear that I read this on some site somewhere a few months ago that was basically all about just posting drug experiences- the non-medical "trying to get high" type.

I can't remember the specifics but apparently it was not a good experience at all- I think he just got extra jittery and nervous, sort of got the side effects from Adderall enhanced but that was it.

> Caper - Thank you for your reply. I'm certainly NOT trying to "get high" - I just want the meds that I take to be effective without having to increase my dosage - although I know that there are those out there that are just into it for getting high. I want to be productive - not spaced out! :)
