I'm gonna try start mega dosing vitamin c again, assuming it doesn't cause that haemorrhoid bleeding effect. I don't think I have to worry about insomnia, as long as I keep taking my trazodone.
I was recently diagnosed with ADHD, makes a lot of sense going through the criteria and my childhood, especially the emotional dysregulation, and my dad and auntie have obvious outward hyperactive adhd, mines more mental hyperactivity, which I always assumed was OCD.
I'm on my 4th day of titration on elvanse, 30mg for the first 14 days, 50mg the next 14 days.
Seems to be having some positives, and some negatives.
Positives are:
- I can actually work for hours straight on the fun part of my job.
- I can actually concentrate well.
- My emotional dyregulation has improved the most it's ever been, I don't get severly upset by small spats or criticism, like this was hugely dramatic for me.
- My appetite is crushed, which will hopefully help with getting to a healthy weight (96kg now)
- No insomnia issues, or stim issues, no bp issues, no anger issues, but a lot of that's due to trazodone's a1 antagonism
- Had a glimps of genuine happiness yesterday, like proper feeling, only lasted like 40 minutes, before I drank energy drinks and smoked. But reminded me of similar experiences with vitamin c and other specific supplements.
Negatives:
- Main one is rabbit holing with AI all day, trying to figure out the glimpse, and put in all my other experiences over the years.
- Took 400mg of caffeine tablets (to avoid taurine which sedates the hell out of me) with elvanse and my stack this morning, hoping to recreate yesterday glimpse, but it felt more like fake happiness.
According to hours of talking to AI, I'm currently under theraputic levels, and the elvanse alone restored some hedonic tones, while caffeine and nicotine basically made my DA/NE levels noisy again.
So after going through all my experiences, the only decent non dirty supplements I could expriment with that could give me instant mood lifts, are megadosing EPA to around 5g, or try megadosing vitamin C again. I had to choose the latter, because the former will bankrupt me right now (though maybe an option in the not too distant future, as I got a raise, but savings need to kick in).
AI told me that I can't take it in the morning, cause it'll acidfy my blood, and I'll pee out the amphetamine. So I'm gonna take a teaspoon tonight, and hopefully every night (if no side effects), and hopefully see if it makes any difference to my hedonic tone while on elvanse. Also need to drop all caffeine, eventually nicotine, and I'm also having 3 eggs in the morning now.
Here's a summary of the current stack/routine:
### Morning Stack (taken all together at either 8/9/10 AM with 3 microwaved Eggs) Brain * 1 × Elvanse 30 mg * 1 × Lutein 20 mg & Zeaxanthin 4 mg * 1 × Astaxanthin (Astalif) 12 mg * 1 × Fisetin (Novusetin) 100 mg * 1 × Black Cumin Seed Oil 1 g * 4 × Ginkgo Biloba * 1 × Rutin * 1 × Phosphatidylserine Additional * 1 × Butyrate * 1 × Ginger 300 mg (5 % gingerols) * 1 × Garlic Oil Essential * 1 × Folic Acid * 1 × Multivitamin * 1 × Vitabiotics Jointace * 1 × Triple Magnesium Complex * 1 × Vitamin E 200 IU * 1 × Vitamin D 1000 IU * 1 × Starflower Oil * 1 × EPA 500 mg Weekly * 1 × Selenium 200 mcg ### Before Bed Stack * 2 x Trazodone 50 mg * 1 x ZMA * 1 x DHA 500 mg (or more if throat is dry from vaping.smoking) * 1 tsp Vitamin C (sodium ascorbate to avoid acid reflux, probably around 5g)
