> Word of advice - NEVER up your dosage until absolutely necessary. Once you go up, you cannot go down. (your body adjusts to the up in dosage, and then smaller amounts are no longer effective). Use as small a dose as possible the first time you take it - even if just 5mg. You will be glad you did. Dexedrine is highly addictive, and so you should be very careful with this drug.Thanks Ms. Jane,
Sounds like very good advice. I had a little "speed" and benzo habit when I was a teenager and I remember very clearly how unpleasant it was to break them both. The memory of that has stuck with me ever since (20+ yrs). So thanks for reminding me - I will take it very gently.
I also plan to take one weekend per month (or maybe every fortnight if absolutely necessary) without any stims just to reset my sensitivity. Would you like to come over on that weekend? ;) I'm not looking forward to it. It'll be horrible I am sure. I recently returned to using modafinil after finding a cheap source (thanks to someone here) and I have already taken a couple of weekends off. Other than having NO ENERGY, very tired, yawning, etc it really plunged my mood way down to almost despair. So although I know it's necessary to take a break, I am not looking forward to how bad it will get once I have added Dex to my daily cocktail.....;)
