I would like to post this in Advanced Drug Discussion but i felt i should put it here first.

I have been pescribed several ADHD/Anxiety medications over the past year and a half.
  • Adderal 10>30mg IR/XR
  • Ritalin 20mg
  • Desoxyn 5>25mg

Adderal has helped me immensely with impulse control, focus and retention of information (especailly auditory input, an area in which i severely lack). However after 3-5 days of perscribed usage i become an emotional rollercoaster (like the ones for kids at amusement parks).

Desoxyn has helped me in a way i cant completely identify, its like i am free'd from my own impusivity, also my mental cognition is better, but the only downside is that i have absolutely NO motivation to do anything other then play Call Of Duty: Black Ops all of the time (granted that between 12a-4a im playing videogames until the stimulant induced insomnia fades away).

Ritalin is the last ADHD medication i was introduced to from not having months of experience with it, i have made only few observations. I feel more sociable in the first few hours of ingestion.

After the peak level of the medications in my system i tend to become more anxious and fear social situations (specifically classrooms) and often interacting with my family.

I am also prescribed anti-anxiety medications which "work" to ease the comedown, i do not want to become reliant/addicted to benzo's so i do my best to avoid taking them often.

I believe that a tailored diet and regiment supplements would increase the effectiveness of these medications while decreasing their unpleasant side effects.

I am asking YOU bluelighters, through your own personal experience or knowledge to help me get my shit back together.

I have TONS of different vitamins and supplements but i dont know what to take when to take them for fear of nullifying or possible dangerous side effects..
 
If i were you i'd take magnesium with those stims, it keeps ur tolerance from increasing so quickly and also some alpha lipoic acid and vitamin c for antioxidants would be good seeing as meth is neurotoxic.
 
Can this thread be moved into ADD BDD or Healthy Lifestyles for more in depth responses.

Thankyou Drpepper, i have not heard about alpha lipoic acid bore
