I first heard about Adderall from a friend who does 70-90mg every week or so, and says he does amazing in school because of it. For him, that may be true, because off of Adderall, he's not too bright. For me, it completely messed me up during school. I don't know what factor contributed to the bad reaction I had to it, whether it be my weight or what have you, it was bad.

I went through a period of Math first, not on Adderall. Then I had to do some homework in study hall, and decided to go to my locker to get the 30mg pill. Now, my locker is on the other side of the school, and so it took me a while to get there. When I got there, I ran upstairs and got to a hallway where no one was, and took it from a water fountain. It did not kick in very quickly at all. My study hall perod had ended, and I went to Phys. Ed. We went to the weight room and I was sitting with a female friend of mine. We were lifting weights and suddenly I got this weird light-headed feeling...almost as if I were high, but it felt a lot better than any high I've gotten before. That amazing feeling lasted about 10 minutes altogether.

Then I went to see a girl who I am together with the next period, and I was feeling like shit. I told her what I had taken and how terrible I was feeling. She did not know why I was reacting how I was to it, as I just kept telling her I was nauseous. I then went to lunch and only ate a little bit, as I new I was nauseous, but also knew that if I did not eat I would likely pass out later on in the day.

After lunch I went to Science class and I was able to pay attention somewhat well, but I was feeling so terrible that it was kind of hard. Then this is where it really started to kick me in the ass. I received a 70% on a test we had taken 2 days prior, and I got really upset. The Adderall had made me very emotional. I felt even worse.

After Science I was off to History, and I saw my girl before that class. I was still feeling somewhat bad, her face made things a lot better but still, I was not right. I basically hate going to History besides the fact that SHE is there, and the whole period I was just pissed off at my teacher because she always gives me crap. I was more pissed off than usual though, and most of it was for no real good reason at all.
I was more pissed off than usual though, and most of it was for no real good reason at all.
The kid I had gotten the Adderall from was in my class this period, and he didn't know why I was reacting to it this way either. I started to calm down a little bit when I went to Computer Science, and nothing really happened there.

Afterschool, I told my Track coach I couldn't run, otherwise I would pass out or throw up. Thank God for that, because I really would have. At this point I was sitting in a hallway with the girl I had mentioned earlier and I was basically just feeling weak and nauseous again. I also was very thirsty. That basically sums up all that happened, and how I reacted to the Adderall. With the experience I had, I think I would do it again, but not in school. It seemed as though the people around me would get me very upset and piss me off and make me feel even worst than the drug already did. I would do it again for home use or something of the sort. I hope this is useful for someone else.
