    Yup, one of my favorite songs. My favorite is of of 10,000 Days. Lost Keys/ Rosetta Stoned, as soon as I heard it I wanted to try LSD. Maybe if I get to go to the Dead show some jive guy can hook meh up.

    Ha yup, that ussually works. I might start going to shows/smaller concerts this summer, really the only time you find LSD around here is when there is a show or something.

    You can never find it here unless you know the right people, and I only knew the people that knew those people but hustled and wanted to charge $20 a hit so I said fuck it. There aren't any shows here since we don't have a concert hall or anything but who knows? Maybe I'll find some crazy drugs at the Dead show and have a trip.

    concerta is an amphetamine right?

    how does it compare to adderall? cuz I've been thinking of getting some addy soon. Never tried it but I want 2.

    I have heard from an old girl friend that adderall sucks in comparison to ritalin. Of course thats snorted. I have little info on adderall but concerta is an amphetamine.

    Aderall is a mixture of levoamphetamine and dextroamphetamine, ritalin and concerta are methylphenidate. Many people say that methylphenidate is less euphoric and more "dull" than amphetamine. Similar, but not the same.

    so if ive never taken this stuff before it should work right? for some reason i had it in my head that this is something that yuo had to get in your system...kind of like straterra but the original post led me to think otherwise.

    i have some huge shit coming up in terms of finals, and all the addy is gone...no joke. my good friend has concerta but i was skeptical. i talked with her about it and she said it was good stuff kept her up and focused, though she doesn't take it anymore because it was too much for her.

    i mean if i get like five from her i should be good...is it as good as addy/vyvanse?

    thanks from a noob

    I'm extended release 54mg, and I've taken two by accident before.

    goodvibes, yeah just get a bunch. if you're used to adderall and like to have a stimulant for working and shit, concerta is fine... it's not as pure as amphetamine in my opinion, it feels kinda strange but it's still good for working.

    a few weekends ago i tried crushing them up to snort, and when that failed horribly, i just ate everything and over the course of the night took 3 36mg pills, 108mg total crushed up.

    i was afraid i was going to have a heart attack, my chest felt so weird (this was my first time taking it), but i fell asleep easily which was surprising.

    yeah i used to take vyvanse everyday until i had what i am convinced was a minor heart attack...thats a long story so i changed to starttera...and eventually, after working well for awhile it gave me suicidal thoughts...so i stopped that too...i decied to stop all add medications (when i go back to grad school i may change my mind)

    but yaeh i mean i only need them for like 4 days...and im hoping that its good enough. my friend has an entire bottle in case i need it...she doesn't take em anymore cuz she hated not being able to sleep from them...im just nervous it wont be as good...but she made it seem like id be gettn shit done for like 10 hrs straight at least...i hope

    and thanks for the reply CM :D

    is it like adderall/vyanse where you can take it once and feel its effects or is it more like strattera where it has to get in your system for a few days?

    it's like adderall, you'll feel it the first time you take it.

    cut it in half long ways with a razor blade and chop it into small pieces [keeping the colored coating because it contains ~30% of the drug] if you want it to IR

    this is helpful if you wake up too late to dose but still have to get stuff done.

    i've actually done a lot of experimenting with them...

    nice good to know, i'd prefer XR since ill be doing research, tons of reading, studying, and writing

    i talked to another friend today and she said all it did was keep her awake but didn't keep her focused. of course everyone's body is different and i'll need to see how i personlly react...but does anyone have any experiences like that or did it help you focus as well?

    it did not keep me up at all, surprisingly enough... i tried crushing the pill with pliers, to snort, and when i realized that would not work at all, i just ate everything, which was 108mg total... my heart felt really fucked up but i had all the classic signs of a stimulant high: fidgeting around, strong desire to talk, huge increase in sociability, tons of thoughts... i wasn't working but that would have been a good time to write a paper, it was so easy to think.

    i got home and wasn't laying in bed for hours, like what normally happens on adderall... i fell asleep pretty quickly and had a good sleep... i don't reccomend chewing up as much as i did, that was way too much... but if you're taking it in XR form, that might be okay.
