That is exactly why I always carry some around with me. The difference is though I use it for emergencies, not daily or even weekly.

I guess I would like to take it everyday, but I am so afraid of a probable tolerance setting in. In addition to that, I am very underweight. A stimulant is not good for my appetite.

The dose that does it for me is a silly 2.5mg. I take a 10mg and break it in quarters.

I'm excited you felt such goodness! You deserve it. It will require more responsibility going forward than a reuptake inhibitor would, but I'm sure you are aware of that.
