I'll be honest, I feel like Dexedrine is the best and its also cool to have such an obscure med aha. Why did you settle wherever you did and share your thoughts on the comparative basis

I’m on Vyvanse, a slow-release dexy. It’s better than the three-a-day dexy.

You know you can just dissolve it volumetrically in a choice beverage and get similar benefit with Dexedrine Spansules eh, I like it better cuz I can self-adjust based on how I'm feeling and if I'm overstimulated (happenz) I can modulate that so as to sleep better and have less overreaction

Edit: 3/day, u talking 10mg spansule, thats a lot if its 15mg... could never handle that on the reg

Australia literally ran out of 30mg tablets for a while and I had to get 40mg. It’s a leeeetle too much but I’m not sure I can be bothered trying to bust open the capsules and remeasuring the teensy bits of powder.

~~Adderall or Dexedrine (dextro)? You guys have that, I thought it was only straight dexamphetamine?~~

What are all the meds available in Aussie (like methylphenidate, dexamphetamine, maybe modafinil)?

No idea, sorry. I know very little about the range of available stuff.
