Nice for My ADHD Until I Became Psychotic

I took 300mg of Adrafinil for about 3 days total. Each dose was toward earlier in the day. I decided in the first place to take it so I could get stuff done -- I suspect I have ADHD.
I suspect I have ADHD.


I felt like I was in hyperfocus all the time. It was nice. I did get some stuff done but mostly I thought about a lot of things and did whatever suited my fancy. Except for the 2nd night I had been unable to sleep -- I even wrote a really cool short story one night and I don't write.

The 3rd day I experienced euphoria (maybe just happy) and fear toward the end of the day stemming from things I started to discover about myself. I made real connections, but also false outlandish ones -- I think they call this psychosis but I can't be sure.

In an attempt to calm myself down, the indica weed I smoked lifted the euphoria and turned it into what people might call a panic attack (I'm not sure). If not a panic attack, then major anxiety. I made some decisions which allowed me to recover from this anxiety. While this was happening, I felt a burning sensation down the back of my skull. My connections turned my world upside down. In a bad way.

As of writing this during the next day I feel a light burning sensation in my skull and some things to consider but otherwise I think I will be okay but changed in some ways.
