For me, stimulants at bedtime make me sleepy. Weirdest fucking thing.

[-] Broadfern@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

Probably easier to relax when your brain shuts up

[-] GerardsGuitar@retrolemmy.com 5 points 1 week ago

That's what I found

Paradoxical stimulant reaction, your brain gets enough dopamine to function and realizes you are tired.

Amphetamines and caffeine= sleepy time

[-] Jinarched@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Same. I think it's quite common for some people with adhd.

[-] henchmannumber3@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

Taking the Adderall is necessary before sorting the Adderall.

At night? i broke my rule and drank a single fucking coffee at lunch, it's now 4 am and I haven't slept yet.

[-] GerardsGuitar@retrolemmy.com 10 points 1 week ago

LITERALLY ME

Sounds like you need better organizational system for your drugs...

I use a pill organizer. Put both the AM and PM meds in the PM side. First time I've ever done that.

okay but hear me out. stimulants right before peak exhaustion so that I'll have vivid dreams about people I miss

Melatonin might help

If I take melatonin when I’m not on my meds, I fall asleep fast enough but don’t sleep very well and have odd dreams.

If I take my meds but not melatonin, I tend to stay awake a long time.

If I take melatonin while my meds are in my system, I sleep for almost exactly 7.5hrs and wake up automatically, well rested.

No idea why that is. Anyone else relate?

[-] turtlesareneat@discuss.online 2 points 1 week ago

Melatonin only resets your clock, not makes you sleepy, it's placebo.

Idk about it helping me fall asleep faster, but the precision amount of time I stay asleep when on my meds seems to fit with “resetting my clock”

I would take vyvanse, then pass out and get woken up 2hr later by it. Loved it at the time. But I decided I was abusing it and needed to stop. I just raw dog life now.

"by accident"

[-] SuiXi3D@fedia.io 6 points 1 week ago

Meanwhile I take Vyvanse and sleep the night away…

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

All-nighters!

But the morning after...

[-] lemmy_acct_id_8647@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

"By accident"

Goodness. Stimulants are the o ly thing keeping the horrors of the next day at bay.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Smoke/vape/dab some weed. A good strain high in mycrene, linalool, and/or terpinoline will override even the strongest stimulants.

Huh? Your previous comment has no downvotes...

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago
[-] null@lemmy.nullspace.lol 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Deleted comments still retain their up/downvotes.

It currently has one upvote (from you).

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

Well then whatever app you're using to see uovote counts of deleted comments is wrong.

[-] null@lemmy.nullspace.lol 2 points 1 week ago

It comes directly from the server. It's not wrong.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Doesn't matter what you say, I know what I saw with my own eyes.

Please stop replying. I have to get ready for work.

[-] null@lemmy.nullspace.lol 1 points 1 week ago

At best you got 1 downvote that the person retracted.

Either way adding spam by deleting and reposting because you didn't like the outcome of the voting is poor etiquette?

Please stop replying. I have to get ready for work. You're distracting me.

Huh? Manage your own notifications and distractions... I'm making public posts in a public space.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

poor etiquette?

You certainly don't get to pass judgement.

Is it good etiquette to insult someones parents when insulting your target has no effect?

[-] TangledRockets@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Oh i did this recently. Do not recommend. I was fried for days.
