I have a secret stash (lemmy.world)
 

Gotta have extra trackpoints on hand at all times just in case.

Those who have been on prescribed stimulants for many years (>5), how do you manage tolerance and crashing? (lemmy.world)
 

I have been on ADHD meds for about 7.5 years now. I started with Vyvanse and my dose was at 70mg in the first year. I was having bad crashes at night, so I switched to Adderall 40mg with 10mg Dexidrine and stayed on it for a few years. Recently, I switched to Concerta 90mg because my tolerance was getting too high and it wasn't working anymore, hoping that by switching it will reset my tolerance. It didn't. In fact, my tolerance drops to being feeling depressed/unmotivated in about 3 days now. So that sucks.

Taking breaks is agony for me. I have the worst stimulat headaches, no motivation, and can't sleep. My doctor knows this but does nothing. He won't raise my dose.

How do you guys manage? Thanks.

My two daily drivers. The ThruNite TC15 stays in my backpack, and I carry the Fenix E18R in my pocket most days. (i.imgur.com)

Leather sheath that I made for my fixed-blade knife (LT Wright GNS) (i.imgur.com)
 

It has a pocket in the front for a sharpening stone. On the side, it has a ferro rod to start fires. It's for bushcrafting mainly. I know it's a little rough around the edges and my stitches aren't perfect, but it works!

Here's my humble workshop. It may be small, but it allows me to get stuff done. (i.imgur.com)
