[Update]: Thanks everyone for answering and caring. I wasn't expecting this reaction at all.

While I got over the panick attack quickly I really appreciated all the comfort and info you provided. <3

At the end of the day I only got a slightly worse headache and rebound effect but that was to be expected. It's been barely three weeks since I've got started with medication and next Monday I have a follow-up meeting with my doctor.

I noted everything up with the rest of my experiences just in case it's useful since I think it might be working better… xD

Anyway, thank you all again. (:

[END of Update]

I'm on Elvanse (lisdexanfetamin) 30mg I just took two pills instead of one by mistake.

I'm quite sure I wasn't noticing anything with 30mg but now I fear an overdose or some shit.

Tho here if 30mg is not enough they jump you to 50mg which is not far from 60mg…

The thing is that I'm scared and don't know what I should do.

As others have said, shouldn't be an issue, I'm currently on 70 mg in the morning and another 20 mg after lunch since I felt the effect wasn't sufficient later in the day so they gave me a second dosage for the afternoon. Here (in Sweden) it's possible to get 70+30 mg if it's necessary for a boost later in the day.

I got started with medication barely three weeks ago. Next Monday I'll be seeing my doctor again to do a follow-up and for that I've been keeping a journal of the whole thing, including this event.

Tbh I don't feel anything at all from 30mg, and for side effects I get really lethargic for a bit and maybe some headaches here and there (specially in the begging) at a regular time interval in the evenings.

I'm going to ask for something to counter that since it happens way to early for me.

I'm on Spain so at least I don't have to deal with the drug situation there.
