Anybody had crazy thoughts/was very irritable on days you don’t take adderall? I take IR and wondering if XR would help or another type of medication?

Additional Posts in ADHD Consultants

Anyone combine ADHD meds with Nootropics? I do a lot of work in the startup/VC community and it seems everyone in that world is obsessed with nootropics. They have private message boards, meetups, etc., just to discuss the topic. I know at least a half dozen companies that have very active Slack channels on the topic where everyone from the CEO on down debates various cocktails, programs, brands.

Am I missing something? Last I read the research was VERY inconclusive.

Hello- new to the group. I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and felt like I had everything pretty under control until recently. I have been feeling so uninspired it’s hard for me to stay focused even with my meds. I can’t tell if it’s burnout or something else. My confidence has plummeted and feel like I have no passions anymore. Any advice would be more than welcomed!
