Default Ritalin and Provigil

Hello

Sorry to barge in on your chats. I'm a freelance writer, writing a report on a growing trend of people buying drugs like Provigil, Ritalin or Ephedrine on the internet in order to perform better or stay more alert at work.

I would be interested in talking to anybody about their experiences for my article. You can remain anonymous and will be paid if your experience is used.

Default Provigil

Liz,
Hi, I am not sure if my circumstances will help you any but I will help you if I can.I take Provigil for fatigue due to having had chemo for breast cancer.It has been a lifesaver for me.The price is so expensive that I don't see how anyone affords it just as a pick me up for work.Even with my insurance I have to pay a $100 co-pay each month.

Default Vyvanse

I'm surprised that you didn't mention amphetamines. A lot of kids in High School- and I'm guessing College too- use Adderall to cram for exams.

Sometime last year, my psychiatrist prescribed Vyvanse to improve my performance in High School. The conversation was pretty much, "How have you been?" Fine. "How is school?" Sucks.
...And so forth.

Just some info. on what the drug is (as opposed to Addy.): Vyvanse is Dexedrine (or Dextroamphetamine) combined with L-lysine, an essential amino acid... which essentially means that Vyvanse is most effective when swallowed normally.. therefore is difficult to use recreationally. So, you swallow it and dextroamphetamine is released in your body for about nine hours. Basing that time-frame from experience.

I am physically addicted to Vyvanse. I have built a tolerance for it and if I quit taking my normal dose, I feel like sleepy sh*it.


Mentally.. total Love/Hate relationship. Hate myself on it, can't see myself without it. Hahaha... (If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. I'm obsessed with amphetamines. Never taken a chem. class though, so I can't help you there.)
