Peace

This morning I took 15MG of adderall and at this moment am enjoying a peaceful moment.  I like my job and feel intellectually challenged with a high degree of interest and motivation.  I would welcome the opportunity to socialize with others and I feel generally content.

I expect this will last for a few hours then I will be back to my miserable self.  Perhaps this afternoon I will again indulge myself with some additional artificial joy.

I am not looking for euphoria.  I simply would like to feel the passion, interest and motivation that will help me to live a life worth living.  I suppose the very act of looking for what I am missing is positive.  Let's hope that I can find that elusive screw in need of adjustment.

Have you tried yoga or tai-chi? I know my question sounds stupid, but whenever I get really, really down in the dumps, or whenever I am feeling lost and in need to find myself, I immerse myself in exercise and meditation. The highs that you can experience during a physical workout beats any drug or pill out there. It's natural and self-induced and there's no greater feeling than that.

Just a thought...

Good luck. I would definitely say that your looking is a good thing.

Life is good. It's the little things that are best to concentrate on I think. I think they give us the most joy.

I work out most days and try to meditate when I can. I agree that a natural high is much better then one induced by drugs. Just seems like I am not getting better though.
