I need some uppers to keep me awake and help me pay attention at school. I used to have a huge supply of ritalin but that is long gone. Coke is too expensive for me, and I have no connects for it. Anyone know of anything herbal or any pep pills or something that can help. Caffeine doesn't cut it. I'm not looking for a high, just something to help me. I heard about benzedrex inhalers but eating cotton everyday just doesn't seem to appetizing.
Look for modafinil/adrafinil. Modafinil is prescription-only in the States, but adrafinil (which breaks down into modafinil in the body) is legal and available online.
...see a psychiatrist and get a script for adderall or concerta. concerta worked really well for me, though i've been off of it for a while now.
I tried the doctor route but I'm too poor for that I do have ADD too, so it's just a cash thing. I actually do eat breakfast; I eat well. I have heard of modafinil and have actually had it once, I didn't know about adrafinil so maybe that will work for me.
Personally i recomend V energy drink, although the stuff can give you nasty stomach cramps, i dare say it is probably not as bad as pills and powders. I recomend V because it has helped me write alot of Uni essays in very short amounts of time.
8 hours man, 8 hours. And I can't personally stand by it because I haven't used it for this, but friends say that those brainwave programs that you listen to can work very well for sleep reduction and "pep" when you listen to them while sleeping, but I imagine eventually you could become physically exhausted after regulating your brain to allow your body to easily get by on however few hours a night - probably not as bad as doing that inhaler cotton shit every day though. How tired are you?
I know how you feel man. I cant bring myself to study or anything like that. I have a really high IQ, and I got into college bla bla bla, but its just not my thing. Instead of trying and trying to change yourself so you can do all that stuff, maybe you should do something your interested in? As for medicating yourself. You could smoke weed, that kind of helps me focus. I have tried adderall, concerta, and more. The stimulants are good for your problem, but they will cause way more problems.
i wrote a good paper on adderall. then i finished the paper, couldn't sleep, so i walked around and got all delirious about people watching me. the whole next day i felt like everybody was judging me so harshly, and felt isolated from every other human being. but it was the dopest paper i ever wrote.
I think this is the sensible approach. I find stims make me a bit scatter-brained, I'd be much better in a school situation sober. Just make sure you get enough sleep and eat right.
i have ADD as well, never got prescribed anything but i started out chewing up 30 mg adderall to get work done and it progressed to sniffing 60 mg just to go to class. after staying awake for 3 days straight i decided to never touch adderall again. i would recommend stratera- i doubt you can get it without going to a doctor though. im guessing youre in high school, because most college kids have adderall.. i used to get 30s for 2 dollars each
yeah OP if you think you need stims or something and you're diagnosed with ADD, talk to a doctor about what might work with your money situation, chances are you can find some way to work it out.
