so i have a long-winded question for anyone that has some advice. i’ve been prescribed stimulants for narcolepsy & ADHD for about 7 years with long stretches off that severely interfered with work, school, & my mental health leading me back to them again. i was titrated up to 70 mg of vyvanze a day previously & now i’m prescribed up to 60 mg of IR adderall a day. i can’t bring myself to take something every day bc i feel like i have to recover from them a few days a week which i plan for & overall, my life is very functional. i got prescribed a new drug called XYWAV to take at night which basically is supposed to knock you out into a very deep restorative sleep & allow you to function off stimulants. i’m eager to find a way to get off stimulants entirely but haven’t decided if i want to try XYWAV yet. anyway, my question is are there supplements you guys would recommend to take in addition to the adderall to keep my brain healthier? i lead a pretty healthy lifestyle, don’t drink, eat healthy, regularly work out and get enough sleep (lol). or in the case the new medication works for me, are there supplements that will help my brain/body recover from using stimulants long-term? i have an appointment w/ my sleep doctor to ask the same thing & decide about XYWAV but if y’all have things that have worked for you, i’d really appreciate the input!
