Vyvanse vs focalin xr

Does the crash from stimulants ever get less severe

2024.05.16 01:22 snowqueen47_ Does the crash from stimulants ever get less severe

I’m on focalin XR 15mg, problem is it only lasts ~8 hours and I get this massive crash where I get super depressed and tired when it wears off. It makes me not want to take it anymore. Does this ever get better as your body gets used to it? I think I’ve been on it about a week now

2024.05.15 21:23 RR7BH Heian-era Sukuna WILL dominate Gojo

Heian-era Sukuna WILL dominate Gojo
Hey! Your boy Sukuna Glazer is at it again, coming up with a fresh and detailed post on why Gojo does not stand a chance against Heian-era Sukuna.
https://preview.redd.it/00tki0my4n0d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b9e96ec90a29af6109bea4ae900bb15f541535d1
Let's first talk about Sukuna's win-con in the fight against Gojo...
Potential ways Heian Sukuna can beat Gojo.
  1. Brain damage. the canon way. Just keep DA on full-time in the domain. Gojo won't have enough time to beat Sukuna enough for his domain to fall along with UV. Gojo will be the one who keeps losing his domain and suffers brain damage after the 5th concentric domain clash. Not going into the details or else the post would be too long to read.
  2. Pile up damage before Gojo's RCT can keep up.
RCT has a maximum amount of damage that it can heal in a given amount of time. If the damage is less than the amount, RCT can handle it. If the damage exceeds that threshold, RCT will be unable to heal Gojo quickly enough, causing Gojo to collect damage, and he would eventually die from the amount of injury he would have sustained. For example, it appears that early Gojo or Sukuna heals an arm in around two seconds.
If they sustain more damage than a severed arm in 2 seconds, RCT may not be able to fully heal before new damage occurs, so at each point they would be more damaged.
Inside Malevolent Shrine, Gojo was seemingly able to heal fast enough for the damage not to progress. However, in this scenario, Sukuna would also deal damage to him. Getting shredded by the malevolent shrine and constant Kamutoke lightning strikes might after taking damage by attacks like flame arrow mean that Gojo's RCT thresholds will be surpassed. And he gets damaged faster than he can heal. This would be one way that Sukuna could beat him.
https://www.reddit.com/Jujutsushi/comments/1cqfozh/sukuna_couldve_used_flame_arrow_on_gojo/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Here's a post about how Sukuna can use Flame arrow on Gojo.
3. Force dropping Gojo's CE output
In Chapter 250, the concept of one's CE output dropping with their CE reserve was introduced.
In chapter 226, Ino responds to Yuta's argument that Gojo doesn't run out of his CE reserves only if he is using CE normally, but using RCT at maximum output while also fighting Sukuna is not normal use, so Gojo's CE reserves are dropping.
https://preview.redd.it/94htzlbjxm0d1.jpg?width=705&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0bbbbd44c367e505ce10517880e04f02e3de5fe8
Now, some of you may say, but that's Ino talking. We don't care about his thesis on Gojo.
To which I'd say, Alright, you don't believe in Ino? Listen to Gojo, then.
https://preview.redd.it/wd5jmscrxm0d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30784a8d2fdd697f551f671962558be50ec1e4de
The statement in Chapter 234 that Gojo told his students to jump in only when he became weaker than them states outright that Gojo can and is expected to weaken. You are only going to get weaker if you are running low on CE reserves and output, as you wouldn't have the output to reinforce yourself better, and so on. Lower CE output means that the CE reinforcement will be weaker, so the user will be slower, hit weaker, and be less durable. Also, no. Brain damage isn't being talked about since that came in like a total curveball. Not even Gojo knew he could sustain brain damage from continuously destroying his brain and recovering it, the method he developed on the fly against Sukuna.
https://preview.redd.it/s6vlbbyuxm0d1.jpg?width=597&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a831a2f1f47d0feae8ca15cf1b7192e76f173ea5
https://preview.redd.it/wh96um2wxm0d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a12591f388909f11b795081d011b1d9cf3141cc5
If Ino and Gojo are right, then another method for Sukuna to win is to keep Gojo in the malevolent shrine and have him expend a lot of CE using RCT, so his output gets lowered, lowered output will lead to lower CE reinforcement, meaning lower durability. Now, the slashes that previously were getting tanked will now cleave through and kill Gojo.
NOTE: In case it wasn't clear, all these attacks are to be unleashed on Gojo when he's suffering from CT burnout and does not have infinity to protect him.
Now, that we have Sukuna's win-con lets see difficult it is for Gojo to execute his own win-con against Gojo
Technically, it'd be unlimited void or HP, but Gojo can't hit Heian Sukuna with UV, nor will he be able to land a HP on Sukuna.
UNLIMITED VOID
In canon, it only happened because Sukuna prioritized adaptation, which is why he kept his DA off for the most part, which led to Gojo beating Sukuna enough that his shrine fell.
So there's a common misconception among some JJK fans who think that if not for Mahoraga, Sukuna would've lost during the 5th domain. Is it true? Short answer : No
https://preview.redd.it/8vptnkw8wm0d1.jpg?width=1603&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=52d35d5c952fd39a611bf600f364494609ac049b
LONG ANSWER:
Planning: Sukuna went into the fight with the strategy of removing Gojo's UV first. Sukuna could've tackled Gojo's UV by himself with MS, but Sukuna wanted to remove UV altogether so he could've Mahoraga adapt to infinity with less difficulty compared to what actually happened.
But that plan came with the risk of not being able to touch Gojo, as to use 10 shadows, Sukuna would have to stop using DA. DA is the technique that allows Sukuna to bypass infinity and touch Gojo.
https://preview.redd.it/db7yra9cwm0d1.jpg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01a7fc5c28b6bf7ea652455a1783f522d5d43336
It takes 3 minutes for Sukuna to break Gojo's domain from the outside; meanwhile, it also takes 3 minutes for Gojo to deal enough damage to Sukuna that Sukuna isn't able to hold his shrine. Now, the only reason Sukuna got hit by unlimited void in the 5th domain was because he was late to cast his own domain by less than 0.01 seconds as he was following an extra step of healing himself before his CT burnout, unlike Gojo, who only had to heal his CT burnout.
In chapter 228, Gojo states that Sukuna is taking a riskier option in DE fights; he's breaking the domain from the outside when he could destroy them from the inside (like Mahoraga did) as inner and outer conditions of his domain were changed, making them stronger from the outside but weaker from the inside. This is answered by Sukuna himself. He turned off his DA so that Mahoraga could adapt. Sukuna was purposely breaking Gojo's domain from the outside so that Mahoraga could have more time to adapt to Gojo's domain.
https://preview.redd.it/en3cxvvewm0d1.jpg?width=1077&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eb626953bafb20fe5eb493c51903c4d818d56871
He started running around the domain And instead of counter-attacking, he limited himself to just blocking.
https://imgur.com/a/J0bBf7z
Now, if Sukuna had destroyed Gojo's domain from the inside, Gojo wouldn't have had enough time to inflict damage on Sukuna to prevent him from holding his shrine. As a result, Gojo would never have been able to damage Sukuna enough, which caused him to be struck by the Unlimited Void.
Even if Sukuna doesn't want to break Gojo's domain from the inside, Sukuna can still avoid UV and beat Gojo by just keeping his DA on.
Sukuna using DA for the first time to counter Gojo's limitless outside of Infinity
Mind you, Sukuna never used DA inside the domain to block Gojo's red and blue. It was in chapter 233 that Sukuna first used DA to reduce red to its minimum. Sukuna tied the 3rd and 4th domain battles WITHOUT using DA to block red and blue.
(Gojo freely using BLUE and RED against Sukuna) https://imgur.com/a/gpKXkUL
As seen during the fight, once Sukuna uses his DA to fight back, he's able to hold his own. DA helps Sukuna tone down Gojo's blue and red. Sukuna, with DA, can keep up with Gojo and even LAND his own hits on him. So, while Sukuna won't be winning the H2H exchange, he won't get damaged enough for his domain to get destroyed within 3 minutes, and this ultimately will mean that Gojo loses the domain clash.
(Sukuna using DA to fight back, pushing Gojo back, Punching him to distance and outmanoeuvring him) https://imgur.com/a/XrZPlcg
Now, after the lengthy explanation about why Sukuna got struck by UV and how Sukuna could've avoided it, let's move to the main point.
This scenario (of Sukuna getting hit by UV) will never develop against Hein-era Sukuna since his priority would be to kill Gojo and not adapt. The "less than 0.01-second" lag happened because Sukuna had to heal himself first before healing his burnt-out CT. In 4-arm form, this won't be an issue since Sukuna can just directly open HWB or cover himself in DA in response to Gojo's UV. With HWB, it will neutralise the sure hit, and Sukuna will have two extra arms to fight back Gojo while also healing the CT. OR the best option being to use DA. With DA, not only would Sukuna cancel out Gojo's domain Sure Hit, but he could also bypass Gojo's infinity while nullifying Red and Blue to whatever degree possible, after which Sukuna would then just open his own domain and destroy Gojo's domain barrier from the outside.
Note : Tho Sukuna won't get into a situation where he'd have to use HWB or DA to counter UV, but if he does, he can maintain HWB and DA while he recovers his burned-out CT to open his own domain.
https://preview.redd.it/fmb1oninwm0d1.jpg?width=543&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=694ee3dc298ad4435cfafc5e37cc3d6cf1edba46
Now for Hollow Purple.
Hollow Purple tho an lethal attack but not lethal enough to kill Sukuna or badly injure him, who has a working RCT. We've seen Sukuna survive a 120–200% HP where he only lost an ARM. Besides, HP takes time to charge, which is why Gojo had to shift his tactic as Sukuna wouldn't let Gojo charge it up. Not only was it stated by Gojo himself, but it's evident when he first used it against Hanami. The build-up is long, and even the CE spark are pretty evident to others. Todo knew the purple/big technique was being launched before Gojo even finished mixing up red and blue.
As for unlimited HP, it takes longer than even normal HP. Gojo has to create a maximum blue, chant it, create a chanted red, collide them, and then make the chant for purple, which wouldn't work against Sukuna
https://preview.redd.it/mlp5rdxpwm0d1.jpg?width=453&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8bbb7a3d99c2d26e1c53a9ceadd4c05b7210e283

But....but Gojo is superior in hand-to-hand
While I'm at it, let's talk about this as well. Gojo only looks superior when Sukuna isn't fighting back and is totally focused on adaptation.
Whenever Sukuna has tried to fightback, he has always shown relativity to Gojo. Sukuna, with a weaker body, has shown that she can match Gojo. With a Heian-era body, Sukuna can even dominate Gojo.
https://preview.redd.it/bmvzq1xyzm0d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cfbeb43c3e33a31eeb46828c47850863fe912bef

A great example to show Heain Era body advantage over Meguna.
https://preview.redd.it/nl8cjqq11n0d1.jpg?width=1027&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=35f5dd391f1a7046363a973a288f8fd091539c11
Just like Gojo, Kashimo also blocked Sukuna's punch, but because of Sukuna's extra arm advantage, he managed to hit Kashimo and send him flying. The implication is that if Gojo were in the same situation as Kashimo, the outcome would’ve been the same due to Sukuna's extra-arms.
Adding an extra advantage over Sukuna's 4 arms is his muscle mass, which works as an additional boost while fighting in close H2H combat. This should go without saying: Sukuna Heian's body > Megumi's twig body.
https://preview.redd.it/hle6i07o3n0d1.jpg?width=554&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aca25460e5e4aee8fa31f1ecec9003a1e6ea19e8
Now, before some of you say, " but Gojo fought Mahoraga, Sukuna and Agito at the same time...so he would be fine against Heian Era Sukuna...
My brother in arms;
It was ..
A 3 v. 1, which lasted only 1 chapter.
A 3 vs. 1 in which Sukuna was in shadows for 80% of the fight A 3 vs. 1 in which Agito and Sukuna couldn't even touch Gojo until Mahoraga first disabled Gojo's infinity by touching him.
Not to mention, Gojo also got amped by Multiple BF going into this so-called 3 v 1
So yeah, Heian Era body mixed with DA will dominate Gojo in H2H.
NOTE: DA will cancel Gojo's Blue amped punches. Sukuna with DA managed to minimize red to its minimum which uses double the amount of CE.
Red >> Maximum Blue > Just blue orbs > Blue used for inifnity/punches/teleportaion and high speed
https://preview.redd.it/gct2dy534n0d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7025d1f068faecd159e48d1bec313631da21161a

In conclusion, Sukuna has a higher probability of winning the fight than Gojo does.

2024.05.15 20:08 ladysmithgirl New to stimulants and I'm confused

Why did this happen? I started Vyvanse yesterday. 10mg. I always need low and slow titrations on meds.
Day 1 was perfection. Even up and down, no side effects, no hard crash. Exact amount of energy and focus I was looking for.
But....
Day 2 now is a total flop. No energy. Slight focus. Tired. Irritable. Napping midday.
Is this normal when starting a stimulant?
I had the same tea both mornings. I didn't sleep super well the 1st night (last night) between doses. 2nd day I took my vitamins/zertec with it vs 1st day I took my vitamins 1 hour after the stimulant.
Thoughts about why it's such a drastic difference? TIA!

2024.05.15 18:39 kayisbadatstuff How to stop feeling like I’m going to puke when I eat on my stimulants

Hey y’all! So recently started my medication journey. I was taking adderall 5mg 3x daily but that gave me so much anxiety I felt like a different person. Have now switched to Focalin XR 10mg 1/day and have been feeling unable to eat when I’m on it. I can only take a few bites before I feel like I’m going to puke if I eat anything more. Does anyone have any tips for this?? If I don’t eat my anxiety gets worse so I need to figure something out 🙃 Thanks in advance y’all!!

2024.05.15 18:18 ssid_broadcast increased heart rate on vyvanse, doctor doubled my dose

I just recently got diagnosed at 21, and have never taken antidepressants/stimulants before except for adderall a couple times.
My doctor prescribed me 20mg Vyvanse XR and 75mg Welbutrin which I have been taking for about two weeks now. The initial headaches and dry mouth from the Wellbutrin went away by now but I felt like it wasnt doing anything for me.
The vyvanse feels like its barely working, it helps with my executive dysfunction a fair bit and I am able to do the little admin tasks like emailing, calendar scheduling, filing timesheets, organizing etc.
I still feel like I get distracted/trouble staying on task where focus is actually needed (academic/creative work) and during class.
To these effects, my doctor told me to double both my meds to 40 mg XR and 150 mg Welbutrin.
The issue here is that I feel a bit overwhelmed on the Vyvanse, my heart rate goes up, and I feel anxious. I was supposed to take two Vyvanse pills today but was scared to take the second one because of this issue. Has someone been through this, can give me advice? Adderall also has this effect on me, the crash is worse but I feel more dumbed down/robotic on vyvanse? My friends are able to tell the difference as I am more locked in, my personality feels duller.

2024.05.15 16:25 Delicious_Ground4905 Finding the right med?

I'm a 41yo mom, and I have struggled with executive functioning for years. It felt like I got pregnancy/mommy brain (with my first pregnancy 11 years ago) and then it just never went away. My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD a few months ago, and many of the questions her psych asked about her seemed like they also applied to me. I know that I was much more functional prior to having children - but I also avoided or quit anything that was particularly hard, and dug hard into extreme organization. Now, I feel like my brain is fractured, constantly jumping between all the things I have to handle for my kids and my family, and I struggle to mentally settle down.
I was officially diagnosed with ADHD myself about a month and a half ago, but I haven't found a med that seems to make a difference. I started on Concerta, but it gave me a spectacular migraine on the second day and a constant low-grade headache (manageable but never went away) on the second day, so I stopped taking it (and the migraine was bad enough that I don't even know if it helped with focus). My doctor switched me to Adderall XR, but I didn't feel anything at all until we hit 30mg, and even with that it's side-effects (jaw clenching, minor heart racing) but no noticeable focus improvement. We tried Vyvanse, but the second day I felt like a zombie and then had a total energy crash in the early afternoon (again, with no focus improvement) and the third day it made me angry and depressed and then also the energy crash, so I stopped that and went back to the Adderall since I still have it.
I guess I'm wondering if it's normal for people not to have any positive reaction to the primary meds, and if I should keep cycling through options? The fact that all I'm getting is side effects makes me question my entire diagnosis. Maybe it's not ADHD, and I just can't handle my life and need to find better tools? How many meds should I try before I give up on this?

2024.05.15 04:50 Adventurous-Egg3118 Rapid metabolizer’s of medication, What was the solution?

Long story short I’ve been trying to get my meds dialed in for 12 hours of coverage. It’s been about a year.
So far… 10-15mg adderall 2.5-3 hours max. 7.5-10mg of Dexedrine 2.5-3 hours max. Adderall XR 2.5-3 hours max. Or it does absolutely nothing. Dexedrine ER 2.5-3 hours max or it does absolutely nothing. Vyvanse. 30-40 mg. 3 hours.
I just seem to burn these guys up fast.
I want to be clear that I am referring to the cognitive benefits of the medication and not a particular feeling. I also take 2 days off on the weekends. Along with a week off every 3-4 months. I dont necessarily notice a difference in the duration of effectiveness when I do this.
In general I know I have a really fast metabolism. I can eat whatever I want and not gain a pound. I’ve always been like this. I just burn through everything. Even ibuprofen.
I’m working with a new psychiatrist to try and work the kinks out. Was interested in seeing if anyone’s been down this road before.
I avoid acidic foods and have plenty of protein with breakfast. Drink lots of water and get my normal 7 hours of sleep.

2024.05.15 04:25 Othersideofbroad Where They Hiding the Generic Vyvanse?

It's been a couple seconds since we've had an ADHD meds hunt thread, so I've decided to do my part by posting this.
My doctor is switching me over from Adderall XR to Vyvanse XR. Insurance only covers the generic stuff, but I'm having trouble locating a pharmacy that has it in stock.
I talked to Costco and a couple Walgreens and they're saying they don't ever get it in stock, which is fun.
Any hot leads would be greatly appreciated!

2024.05.15 03:54 Palpateenieweenie Using other substances while on meds (Focalin XR)

I've recently been diagnosed and have been on Focalin XR for about a month now. It has been rough, and I'm worried that my habits are limiting the effectiveness of the drug.
I have cut back significantly on caffeine and alcohol intake, and have not done anything else like weed or other drugs since starting meds (except for Zyn, which I use several times a day). Does anyone have experience with substances like nicotine or small amounts of caffeine or alcohol severely limiting the effects of their ADHD meds? I'm having a really hard time adjusting to the medication and using these other substances occasionally really helps me take the edge off but if it's severely hindering the effectiveness of the drug I will make an effort to stop.
Also, does anyone have a resource or tips on consistently doing other things that will enhance the medication's effectiveness (getting good sleep, drinking a lot of water, eating a lot, keeping a schedule, etc)? I have a lot of trouble with that too.
Thank you for reading and for this community.

2024.05.15 03:46 ledbetteral14 ADHD meds is a big trial and error so far with my demanding life (marriage and kids)

I have been on/off ADHD meds for almost the last two years with mixed success (I was not diagnosed before that), and I’m coming to a bit of a crossroads and wondering what the best way forward is.
I’ve had the most success with Adderall IR (20mg total) in that it really helps with motivation and getting things done around the house and at work, but I feel like I lose a bit too much of my personality and this can hold back my connection with my wife most importantly. I’ve noticed this because in some short periods of being off it I’m just more enjoyable to be around and connection happens way easier. With my kid, it’s a little harder to be patient and I’m less spontaneous than I’d like to be, but overall it’s fairly manageable and a plus is that I’m better at problem solving kid issues now.
I’ve already tried Vyvanse generic (which was kind of awful for me TBH), Adderall XR (couldn’t sleep) and Wellbutrin (felt very depressed after starting it). So I feel like my options are down to Ritalin or Straterra. I’m talking to my psych about Ritalin this week, but I’m not super hopeful and honestly feeling like meds just might not be worth the downsides for me. I don’t feel like I’m a train wreck without meds, but I have seen enough benefit mostly with career advancement and better personal organization/decision making that I feel it’s worth the trial and error..as long as I don’t have to sacrifice much of my personality for it.
Can anyone relate or share an experience switching from Adderall to a different class of stimulants (or Straterra) that was still effective and actually allowed you to still feel like yourself?

2024.05.15 03:46 Palpateenieweenie New to diagnosis and medication (Focalin XR), feeling very discouraged... maybe I don't have ADHD. Advice?

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD at age 27 and started on Focalin XR about a month ago. I have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder since middle school and have been on antidepressants for about as long.
My experience with Focalin has been pretty negative so far. At 10mg I experienced all the side effects that I had heard that I might - headaches, tunnel vision, bouts of fatigue, irritability, initial euphoria, etc. Now that I've been on 20mg XR for about a week, I'm not having those side effects but things just... aren't what I was expecting. The euphoric, energetic, motivational effect that I get 45 minutes after taking it is great, but that lasts for only 2-4 hours. After that I crash and often have to take a nap. Even while I am having the positive effects, I don't get much done, it just feels like a mood booster more than anything, and I really don't want to feel like I'm using a drug recreationally. I very much want to feel what I've heard people talk about - The peaceful, quieted thought process, the clear thinking, the focus, and an easier path to achieve things that I've never felt like I could...
Anyway, all this is to say, my response to the medication makes me think that maybe I don't have ADHD after all. Has anyone had this experience? What did you do?

2024.05.15 03:08 SpeakerOptimal8537 Adderall XR having unpredictable effects

Hi I am 31m and recently started taking Adderall for the first time. It seems to have varying effects between doses/days and I can’t pinpoint the reason.
For context, my psychiatrist prescribed 30mg of XR twice daily (morning/afternoon). I know it’s a lot, but I metabolize these stimulants so fast it’s ridiculous.
I previously took 50mg of Vyvanse once a day but ended up switching because of the shortage and it only lasted approximately 5 hours. Vyvanse was the best medication for me and I would have stayed on it, if only it wasn’t so hard to get and it lasted long enough, but alas.
But back to the Adderall… The morning dose seems to be extremely strong one day, and then not as much the next day. The second dose affects me differently each day. For example, today it put me to sleep, but did wonders for me yesterday.
I’ve tried to track how I take it (w/food, w/out food, etc.) but I’m totally stuck. Does this happen to anyone else? Any ideas on what I could try to make it more consistent?

2024.05.14 21:50 Resident-Witness3456 I feel like a difficult patient

I feel like a difficult patient
I have a couple mental health condition including depression, anxiety, ocd, and adhd. I have tried a ton of medications in the last 10 years or so that either only worked for a short time or have given me bad side effects. So far I've been on Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa, Lexapro, Propranolol, Clonidine, Clonazepam, Adderall XR, Adderall IR, Clomipramine, Effexor, Wellbutrin XR, Vyvanse, Hydroxyzine, Naltrexone and Buspirone. I've had some weird side effects from some medications like tremors and involuntary limb movements along with all the normal stuff like weight gain, sweating, sexual dysfunction and dry mouth. I'm pretty sure the clomipramine even gave me the very beginnings of serotonin syndrome.
My psychiatrist has been amazing and is very knowledgeable. Im worried he thinks im being picky when i come in saying im experiencing a side effect and asking to switch. He is always willing to work with me, giving me several options and letting me pick which medication I am most comfortable with trying. The only problem is that I feel guilty, like I am a difficult patient to treat. Some people are successful with their first medication but I am not that lucky. Has anyone else ever felt like this?
Tldr; I've tried a lot of anti-depressants and I feel guilty that it makes me a difficult patient to treat. I feel like I'm being picky, but none of these meds have felt "right" yet

2024.05.14 21:12 VegasBedset ClearStream MAX-XR vs ClearStream 4MAX: Worth the upgrade price?

I just hooked up my ClearStream MAX -XR just for a test, it's not up in my attic yet just sitting on the bedroom floor, and it gets some decent channels, not 6ABC which I suspected, and some other channels are spotty. I am going to attic mount it this weekend which I am hoping will improve reception a little bit. I also do not have an LTE filter or amplifier installed yet, both have been ordered and are on the way.
Just curious, can people familiar with these antennas say whether or not the 4max is worth the extra $70?

2024.05.14 19:23 Prestigious_Ad6325 PCP

My PCP said he ideally would put me on Vyvanse since I’m not getting the best result with adderall, but he said with the shortages and insurance company approval- he thinks it will be a pain. Thoughts?
I’ve tried Adderall XR 20mg and Adderall 20mg twice a day.

2024.05.14 17:00 jordan_yeo Aerojet irons vs Steelhead XR

Last year I got a great deal on a used set of steelhead XR irons and have been enjoying them. Locally, there's a pretty solid sale on Cobra Aerojet irons- 42% off. Would I notice much of a difference between sets if I picked up the Aerojet irons? I know the lofts are a bit different, but curious if it would be worth the upgrade. thanks!

2024.05.14 16:37 Bulkman12 Ballistic Helmet selection

Looking for a new helmet to replace my old one. Already have a bump and now looking at an ops core XR vs SF. The price right now between the two is only about $200 in difference. I know the XR is v50 rated and haven’t seen too many reviews about it and watching the YouTube video.
Any inputs?

2024.05.14 16:10 2023Onward $5000 more for Club Car Lithium

Looking at Onward pricing, it is $5000 more for an XR lithium cart vs. the standard FLA batteries. Has anyone just gotten the FLA version and done a lithium upgrade separately? It must be way cheaper and I would imagine you could get better range than the XR version Club Car offers.

2024.05.14 05:44 SyrrKMHall Best time for TV Sales? Sony X90L vs X85K?

Requirements- 4K 120Hz / 75in / Gaming / Home Theater
What time of yeaholiday yields the best deals. The X90L is currently at $1,600 how low could it reasonably go down if at all?
I also heard the X85K has a worse processor, the X1 vs the XR. So gaming isn't real 4k 120fps. Is that true? Is it even noticeable? Should I save money or be 100% secure with the X90L?

2024.05.14 05:43 jakeoptions Day on Generic Focalin XR 20MG - do side effects go away?

I posted this on /ADHD reddit, so I won't go through everything again here.
In a nutshell - Trigen Generic for all the shit people talk, really wasn't that bad compared to my Day 1 on generic focalin xr. Dude I felt nasty, headachy, symptoms were worse, I felt jittery and fatigued at the same time, just not good.
For anyone that successfully found their sweet spot with compatible formulation - did you have side effects that you had to get through or did it just work immediately and you dialed in from there?
Any commentary appreciated.
