Ur dose is to high.. I have adhd.. I take ritalin. 10 mg short caring 3 times a day.. I don't feel it working.. but I know it is.. u shouldnshouldnt feel high after about a month of taking it.. alot of people mistake feeling high means it's working. This isn't true.. dial ur self back.. and make sure it's working. Not that u feel it. I we through this. When my dose was to high, I had the same problem. Dial it back down.. like i said.. u should not "feel" it working.. u should just notice u are able to stay on track..
Sorry for all the typos .. I'm on my cell, and it's new.. and it seems to have a mind of its own.. :)
Thank you guys for responding. Yeah, I took more than I was supposed to. What prompted it was once I started, I didn't like the come down of the Adderall so I decided to take another one to bring me back up. But now I regret doing that.
I'm normally only prescribed 40mg Vyvanse once in the morning and 10mg Adderall in the afternoon. I guess I just wanted to pull an allnighter to work on homework, but that obviously didn't work... :/
I think what I'll do is drink some water and lay down for a bit with a fan on and some blankets. If things get worse, I'll go in. But the Hydroxyzine seems to be helping a bit.
Again, thank you so much for responding so quick! It's nice when I'm a bit panicky to know others are out there.
:)
The crashes are the worst.. I time them to where they hut at bed time so I sleep through it. Good luck to u!
One thing that helps, since we forget lol is to try to stay on a schedule. Set alarms.. keep the bed time routine.. that way u can avoid and sleep through the crashes..
Yes! I had a little planner book that had like EVERYTHING in there, but I lost it. :/ Actually, thanks for reminding me. I will go look for that now.
P.S. Feeling MUCH better. :)
I'm glad u are feeling much better.. when u take to much it is diffinitly scary.. u will get the hang of it.. takes some getting use to.. I know the frustrated feeling when ur afraid it isn't working.. u panic.. being able to stay on track and think is a big deal for us.. and we get afraid of loosing that.
We can't give you advice in terms of medicine, but with your symptoms...especially the racing, irregular heartbeat, and tightness in your chest, I would consider going to an ER or urgent care clinic.
You are taking amphetamines (with the Vyvanse, it is a "pro-drug" which means you aren't consuming an amphetamine directly, but rather your body converts it INTO amphetamines once it's metabolized.)
Over-dosing on speed can be very dangerous. As I said, I can't give you medical advice, but it sounds from the symptoms you listed, like you as experiencing an over-dose. Not too scare you, but please think seriously about going to an ER. Don't worry about what people will think of you; your life is precious. Good luck.
