Yes, that's the situation right now, I don't take stimulants, and that's cause and effect and I just didnt think that this would happen, it's kinda in the moment, like when I used to spend money like crazy i didnt care about time after words, I just wanted "that" product, or food at the moment, it's impuslivty. So i'm keepin that money in the bank..
You know, there is an example when you speed and you get a ticket because it was found, your insurance goes up, relate that to the medication but I hate to call it "speed", it calms me down, actaully somtimes at low doses stimulants make me depressed by inhibiting dopamine and slowing the firing rates, yet at higher doses which are "recreational" it increases dopamine firing much more, which will "burn out" your dopamine transporter's. So, I've pretty much understand the cause and effect from now on, if it ever is prescibed again, just hold on to faith, and take it right. The reason I would take more, was because it sustained attention and focus over long periods which i lack much, and I was working for my brother and that required alot of alertness.
Thanks Maxime, have a good day.
