I originally started taking the drug holidays two months ago to help ease my insomnia problems. I then started becoming worried about tolerance and hypomania concerns. My doctor supported me taking as little as possible due to not being thrilled about me continuing to take them under these circumstances (even though I had been taking them for 3 months at same dosage without any problems).
I do think the inconsistency is irritating my brain. Actually seems to balance out my weekend sleep schedule, albeit, in an annoying manner. I hate feeling drowsy. I have always been extremely morning groggy, but I am an energetic person by nature. The added drowsiness encourages a semi-reasonable (ie 1-2am) bedtime. No difference in sleep quality. My boyfriend likes that the drowsiness makes me more bed activity oriented. lol. the lack of arousal is bad for anything that is not bed.sit around and relax-related. focus and motivation to do anything exerting non-recreational effort is out of the question.
I am wondering whether the drowsy is solely a sleep-wake regulation thing. no mood change.
my sleep is improving greatly. eeeeeeeeeee… so maybe this will change the situation? I’m an obsessive person so… well.. i am obsessing that I am becoming some kind of speed freak. somehow the thought train gets ridiculous and I end up shooting up roaming the streets. i already have the pale skin, underweight, and bad skin going for me. i have a very active imagination lol. *sigh* the wild and crazy life of vyvanse, work, and school lol. it is never in my system for social events. but the tolerance is real. I’m not sure if it is ok that 50mg Vyvanse is no longer cutting it and I cannot even feel less than 15mg of dextroamphetamine (never take them together of course). and that drowsiness I feel on day two without is real.
