You’ve probably heard of the drug Dexedrine, but do you know what it’s used for? It is most commonly prescribed to people with ADHD and narcolepsy, but it also has an unexpected side effect — reducing anger. As a result, many people use Dexedrine as a substitute for anti-anxiety medication or to calm themselves before bed. Of course, that’s where the problem arises.
Dexedrine is just like any other drug. Gratitude Lodge is here to tell you about Dexedrine Abuse and Anger Anxiety so that you can make an informed decision regarding your actions.

What is the Best Way to Counter Dexedrine Abuse and Anger Anxiety?
Be sure to use your brain as much as you can. You don’t want to blame yourself or others in a drug-induced episode, so you must have a support system when using any drug, especially when you can’t be yourself. When you do use Dexedrine, be sure to keep close track of your daily usage and maintain very strict limits.
Try to eat a balanced diet and exercise often. That can help your body get used to the drug and keep you healthy overall. Also, try to develop good study habits so that you don’t even need medication to concentrate.
