Does anyone have any experience using research chemicals to treat ADD or ADHD? I'm assuming most of the stimulants would work, but I wanted to know if there are any that are particularly effective.
 
I recall hearing that MDPV can help with ADD/ADHD, but it is extremely important not to re-dose on it.
 
maybe DMAA? Though it's not a research chemical..

Might not be strong enough for some, but i enjoy it once in a while. I dont have add/adhd.. im bi polar so strong stims are bad for me lol.

Love your name. If you're from the UK, then the best no-frills stimulant RC I can think of is camfetamine. It won't provide much euphoria, but it will sharpen your senses and hopefully help you concentrate. From my own experience and from what I've gathered, it's pretty forgiving, but it is a relatively novel compound and as such nobody really knows what will happen if you use it long-term as an ADD treatment.

There is also methiopropamine...ie methamphetamine's bastard cousin. It ought to do the job but methiopropamine's physical side effects are really quite unpleasant (vasoconstriction being the main offender). Again, long term therapeutic use hasn't really been documented, but I wouldn't want to be the heart that had to deal with daily methiopropamine use.

If I personally had to choose between the two, I'd pick camfetamine. Are you currently prescribed anything to help tackle ADD?

^ I am also wondering if they are currently prescribed something for this. It wouldn't be a good idea to resort to ordering RCs to try to treat ADD. You never know the purity of RCs, so they can be very difficult to dose.

Yeah I was going to say boardsofcanada that if you've already got a prescription for ADD, you really shouldn't need any DIY medication. If the drugs you're prescribed aren't working, talk to the GP and have your prescription changed.
 
I actually have not been diagnosed with ADD. I was tested for it when I was ten or eleven and the doctor said I might have it. I would consider myself borderline ADD. I can get along okay without medication, but I need it every once in a while to study. JSPete, thanks for mentioning camfetamine. It sounds promising, but I am going to look into it more before I order it. Also, if I do order it, I will only be taking it 2-3 times a week tops.

Something about recommending mdpv for medical use on a harm reduction site just seems wrong to me, but yeah unless you think amphetamine psychosis makes you focus more, I'd say don't use mdpv for add or adhd.

That's why I said not to re-dose it. Re-dosing Ritalin, Adderall, Dexedrine, or other prescribed ADD/ADHD meds can a just as well lead to stimulant or amphetamine psychosis.

A single small dose of MDPV is completely different than binging on it. About a year ago I did a lot of research on this because I was wondering the same thing as the OP. That's when I came across reports of people having positive results using MDPV to increase focus/attention/alertness in order to study, but they also said that if they re-dosed they would experience adverse effects that were not conducive to studying, as well as a worse comedown. Erowid has a lot of reports on MDPV being used as a study aide. It also has a lot of reports of bad experiences from using this drug impulsively, so tread lightly.
 
Guanfacine. 1mg or higher. It works for both Opiate Withdrawal, ADHD, Alcohol Withdrawal, Benzo Withdrawal.

I am currently using it as a dual purpose drug. Anti-Axiety and Opiate Withdrawal. I must admit it works splendid for the Opiate WD!!! I took 3mg (or three pills...) this morning at around 10AM. It is now 1PM and I feel FINE!

Keep in mind I also took 6 Immodium (generic) at around 3AM last night. However, here is some information sourcing my claims. I hope it helps.

try MXE, the afterglow seems to be able to relieve all sorts of things, look into it

really? this works for opiate withdrawal? what about suboxone withdrawal? my boyfriend is on suboxone and if he gives me some he sometimes runs out before his next doctor appointment, i have guafacine so if he ever runs out taking 3mgs or so of it would really ease it for him?
 
As mentioned before, using RCs or street drugs to self-medicate for ADD will not end well.

See a doctor and get prescription medication. That way you know what you're actually getting.
 
The future of ADD/ADHD treatments, lie in nicotinic receptor partial agonists, with varying affinities for the different sub-receptors of the nACH complex.

The kind of RC stimulants (the ones overly available on the black market) are not going to work well you are correct about that.
 
Don't use MDPV. I tried to use it in place of adderall, didn't work. Crack is more effective than MDPV for ADD, which also sucks for ADD. MDPV is purely a party drug.
 
4-fa is an interesting suggestion, but it really is more of a serotonergic amphetamine, both pharmacologically and IME, and had little effect on my personal ADD symptoms. You can try it, it most certainly is a stimulant, but it's a really, really odd one - kind of like d-methamp in Desoxyn, but without the "speed." Almost as if the 4-FA energized you in a similar fashion to LSD - in a loose sense, of course!

Also, as a result of my own personal adventures... I REALLLLLLLY recommend against attempting to utilize MXE for any therapeutic purposes. That was my intention back in March when I first began ordering it... a destroyed relationship, failed employment, thousands of dollars, fifteen ounces and 10 months later I find myself in a very, very dark place in my life.
Obviously I cannot blame these consequences of my own behavior on an inanimate object such as Methoxetamine, but it truly acted as a profound catalyst for the total implosion. Steer clear. Also, ADD treatments are theoretically going to help you focus and be 'normal.' Things are anything but normal, both in reality and cognitively, in an MXE (or other like-street drug) haze. I'm in agreement with others here, using research chems to medicate a legitimate diagnosis is not prudent.

Maybe Pentylone? it feels pretty strong tho. I dunno. research chemicals def suck for treating add. they kind of suck just in general anymore. its not worth the risk of finding ashitty vendor.....getting gross product and ect...
