ADHD medication and Psychedelics

[Jannes]

I recently started adhd medication and it seems like I am staying on at least a low dose. Not sure how I go about psychedelics now though.

Any resources or good ideas about it?

Just a simple and friendly reminder to not mix pharmaceuticals and psychedelics. 

I used to take Vyvanse and it’s not something I found I needed to take daily. On days off when it was out of my system I could take other substances.

At the proper dose it can be a meditative experience. Finding that balance is tricky, though. Good luck!

Depends what medication. Strattera goes with shrooms, HO-MET, 5-MEO but they seem a bit weaker.

Would not try to combine it with Aya (MAOI's , harmalas)

Also, taking a day off is a good idea.

For stimulants, I have no personal experience.

Never heard of those before. In Germany the gold standard is medicinet (Methylphenidathydrochlorid) and Elvanse (Lisdexamfetamin).

Yeah taking a day off might be a good idea, although the brain chemistry is still different, for one because the momentum of the previous day and second because the brain recovers to baseline. Also with medication I could direct the trip better.

Same here. Do not mix with ADHD drugs. I have smoked weed while on Vyvanse, and the vibe was really weird. Vyvanse makes me serious and angry, i would not mix it with more serious psychedelics.
