Due to the fact that I am prone to anxiety I have always avoided uppers. I am very fond of caffeine and have often intentionally consumed large amounts of energy drink and/or caffeine pills in order to get "high" and have never had any anxiety as a side-effect from caffeine.

I am addicted to Oxycodone/OxyContin but sometimes the sedation/sleepiness is just a pain when I have something physical to do or just when I need to concentrate. I have thought about this carefully over several weeks so I am not jumping into this or anything. I have weighed the pro's and cons of uppers carefully and decided to try one.

I have a decent amount of alprazolam (xanax) which I intend to keep nearby as a just-in-case I do get anxious or just don't like the feeling.

I am here basically to ask for advice from people who have first-hand experience.

I want something that will give me energy and make me more alert (and mood elevation/some euphoria wouldn't be a bad thing) but not to the extent that my family (I live with my parents and younger brother) would notice I was hyperactive/manic. I know a lot of that is dosing and I will look into doses and start out very low.

My question is: which "upper" would be best for me? Give me energy and concentration and least likely to cause anxiety? Cocaine, amphetamine, meth, adderall, etc??
