Can I ask how old you are and what you were put on the Dexadrine for? the sleepiness?
Have you ever been diagnosed with Narcolepsy or Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS)??
Perhaps a combo of a stimulant (such as shorter-acting Dexadrine, Adderall, Ritalin, or Desoxyn)
+ Provigil would prove to be of help? Have you tried Desoxyn? It is technically methamphetamine and is more potent than dextroamphetamine. Maybe the time-release thing just isn't working out for you--have you tried immediate-release stimulant(s)? I'd also get checked out by a doctor if you haven't already, get some blood work done, etc.
Best,
L.> im on effexor 300mg and dexadrine 20mg time-release.
> i slept like 16 hours the other day im always exausted, i just dont get it. iv always been like this, i failed school because i was always sleepin (even on adderal). i can fall asleep after a tripple esspresso EASY. i struggle staying awake at work, behind the wheel ect...
