Hello,

I have a very demanding job and I have rather severe ADD which impedes my work.
I am waiting for my official assessment so I can obtain a script for the typical pharmaceuticals, but realistically, I'm in the back of the line, so it could be over a half-a-year.

I'm currently experimenting with ephedrine (I'm taking a lot, I should probably cut down, and thus I'm looking for alternatives)

I also have a supply of the Russian nootropic stimulant phenylpiracetam (aka carphedon or phenotropil). It works okay, but not as well as ephedrine.

I buy what I can get illegally. Dexedrine and Vyvanse.

I'm located in Canada and I feel like all this ephedra is damaging in a cardiovascular sense.

I'm just wondering if anyone else can suggest anything here?
Ideally I'm looking for something that is non-euphoria inducing.

I am very resourceful, have no drug allergies and do not succumb to addiction easily.

This is a very serious issue for me, as without stimulants, my productivity suffers literally -1000%. (I can complete in a day on meds what regularly takes me a week).

Thanks.
 
Strattera (Atomoxetine) is a newer drug approved for the use of ADD. It is a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. It does not have any real abuse potential, and I doubt it produces feelings of euphoria as amphetamines, and other ADD medications do. Something to consider perhaps.
 
Thanks, unfortunately I'm looking primarily for non-prescription stuff.
(when something prescription wise becomes available to me, I usually stock up on it)
