This study makes me think my dose may be too high. When my Adderall hits in the morning, EVERYTHING seems like a good idea. Then, I end up spending two hours writing the perfect email.
- mp05 3y agoThis is me to a tee when I was frankly abusing Adderall as a young adult. My judgment of how best to use my time goes straight down the toilet when I'm jacked on amphetamines. The physical side effects are not very desirable either.
- Hnrobert42 3y agoWhat physical side effects? I don’t have any that I am aware of.
- cvdub 3y agoAdderall reduces your task activation threshold, the amount of effort required to start something. It’s definitely possible to reduce this threshold too far! If you do you’ll end up jumping into the first project you come across and tackling it with gusto, whether or not it’s high value. Having too much caffeine with Adderall makes this effect much worse for me. A little bit of laziness is good! You need to be able to power through the tedious stuff you have to do in life, but you never want to stop thinking, “this is tedious and boring, do I really have to do this? Is there a better way?” It’s easy to lose the forest for the trees.
