      The furnace of feelings that is depression demands fuel - if it’s anxiety I’m running on, then so it be.

      I took speed twice in my life, and the first time I thought it would help with a presentation and I ended up researching about the dogs in the film The Duchess for three hours. My lecturer was happy with the full history of the dogs, though.

      The second time I used it to clean my house. I have no interest in doing amphetamines again, and this was nearly a decade ago, however I will say my house has never looked as clean as those few hours. I was getting into the grooves with a toothbrush at one point. 3 bedroom house cleaned top to bottom in half a day.

        You need to be diagnosed for ADHD but if coffee is only just about working then you might well have ADHD. I’m sure you can buy it on the dark web. Any stimulant medication really. Make sure it’s medication though. Stimulant drugs are dangerous because the come-up/down is much more violent than that of Ritalin is.

    Years ago I realized I was drinking six 24 oz. cups of coffee a day - which is literally MORE THAN A GALLON OF FUCKING COFFEE. One of those cups was even right before going to bed, which is a sign of how much tolerance I had built up to caffeine. Now I just drink one 8 oz. cup every morning and that’s it, and my desire to slap the shit out of every human being I encounter has gone way down.

      I think the vertical axis is the amount, and each bar represents a feeling. So euphoria or dread could also appear on the horizontal.
