> I have never tried dexedrine or adderall, I'm intrigued and a little worried about trying them, because if they don't work, no shorter acting drug probably will.
Well, if they help initially, and you're feeling experimental/desperate, you could always try the famed Memantine + Adderall combo, though you'd probably have to obtain Memantine online as well (which is possible).

It became more pronounced the next day. So I might need more of an accumulation of neurotransmitters than a stimulant can offer in a few hours.

I was transcribing music in my head at my desk at work, but it only lasted a couple days and then I guess the receptors up or downregulated back to normal.Yeah, as an (ex-)writer, I miss planning pieces in my head. I was always toying around with particular words I might like to use, or spontaneously coming up with metaphors/ideas during the day. It's been forever. At this stage, I've (no pun intended) written that part of me off as irrevocably gone.
