A buddy of mine has ADHD is Bipolar and a bunch of other crazy shit when he smokes he acts normal, is motivated and does well in his lectures.

One day he didn't take his meds or smoke I got home at 5 am and he couldn't even talk, stomping around shirtless with his eyes bugging out of his head just making animal noises.

Sorry I'll take his baked motivated normal self any day.

For a normal person adderal motivates more. For someone who adderal is prescribed to a nice Sativa probably keeps them motivated. Motivation and focus are two different things.

So the marijuana motivates, and the adderall helps him keep focus, right?

I'd be cautious about taking two mind altering drugs at once. Who knows what the long term effects could be. And if your friend runs out of either drug, he's fucked.
 
Depends on what I need to get done. If I'm working on the creative end of a project I can smoke no problem. But when it comes to the mundane like hammering out content or coding, weed will just make me want to play TF2 for 6 hours straight.

Adderall, I've tried it and it does help focus, but I've seen people who would take it on the regular. When they weren't on it they were completely useless. I don't fuck with adderall, you'll end up acting like the bastard offspring of Keanu Reeves and Kristen Stewart.

From what I've observed this seems about right. However I've seen him do lines of adderall so this isn't exactly a balanced individual.

Trust me he'll never run out.
 
There are exceptions to everything, but generally weed does not make you more motivated or productive. Most potheads that say so are comparing his/her motivation when "baked" to the motivation after "a few hits". So yeah, you'll be more motivated if you smoke less, but you'll be even more motivated if you don't smoke at all.

Will weed make you creative and innovative? fuck yeah. Just make sure to sober up when it's time to execute.

As for adderall... it works.
 
whatever comes up must come down, so shit like this wont make you spend your hours more efficiently. But if you are looking at a chemical solution to your own laziness so would I go for the big dogs straight away since you seem to be like such "warrior"

Cocaine and heroin and when you're at it just speed ball that fucker and get t work..

Ehh.. If you are taking real high doses of adderall/vyvanse, then yes you can have some nasty side effects.

Having said that, i'd love to see a study comparing the side effects of 5 cups of coffee a day to one 30mg ER vyvanse a day. I've done both, and I feel way better on the latter.
 
There is nothing wrong with spending a day with a bowl and $100-200 on fiverr with ideas towards your site.


Lots of fun.
