I think it's normal to experience euphoria on Dexedrine. That's why it's so tightly controlled.

The next day, I noticed that if I stared at the clouds for a while, they started to flicker or seemed animated, but once I refrained from dosing at night, I never noticed anything like that again . .

That was more likely due to the Ambien. Or perhaps due to disturbed sleep.
