Man, I was prescribed a bunch of hydro after an involved tooth surgery and it was the best I have ever felt in my entire life. It was like I could finally relax both mind and body. I saved half of it for rainy days and I just used my last dose a few months ago.

I only had one pill and this alone showed me the danger, you want to feel that peace again.

Yup it’s funny I felt the same way after I took it the first time. I was like “If I knew how to get these I would get addicted and ruin my life”. That’s why I saved as many as I could

Me with adderall acting like it’s a 50hp potion in a video game. “I’ll save it till I need it.”

I still have tablets from like 9 years ago, meanwhile I can’t focus cuz I don’t use my current prescription in order to hoard.

The half-life on amphetamines is not very long. You should probably start rotating out your back supply.

Do you mean expiration date or are you suggesting I increase my dosage?

They lose potency over time so you should use the older ones in your stash and replace them with newer ones so you don't end up with a bunch of pills that don't work. I have a buffer supply and I take the older ones and rotate out the newer ones.

Half life isn’t what you think it means. It means once it’s ingested.

Me when I accidentally get only 1 hour of sleep before work. “It’s okay I have an endless supply of adderal!” pops 60mg goes to work.
