Sorry for the random post, but today I(22) took Elvanse for the first time. Only 20mg (I‘m 60kg) and still my head feels quiet and able, the mental barriers to starting tasks are almost gone and I can switch my attention and thoughts around to what I want. Is this even possible on that dose?

Did anyone experience similar things on their first try? Somehow I‘m still doubting if the effects are real or just the novelty placebo.

But they are real OMG, I‘m not in sensory overwhelm and actually get things done, I feel like I turned on the cheat menu in a video game!

If you can relate, please let me know bc I am so used to doubting my reasoning that I would really appreciate to know if someone had similar experiences!

Thanks!

    Thanks for sharing! This “rush” I think happens when you take amphetamine for the first few times, and I agree it sounds not sustainable.

    Cool to hear that you are doing fine with a “low” dose. My worries were that maxing out to 70mg would be inevitable without long breaks. Seems that‘s not the case for everyone.
