shammers – you’re not alone! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I found that with just the right dosage of stimulants, it slows me down, but in a good way. I’m slowed down to where I can think straight.
Too much, and I’m a zombie and at the same time tense and anxious – I get frozen on one activity and can barely make any progress on it, but can’t move onto anything else.
You know – Adderall is a dextro/amphetamine – and there’s different stimulant med that, for some reason seems to work better for certain people. Have you tried any methylphenidate type med like ritalin, methylin or concerta?
There’s a sponsored video on this site that goes through a list of different meds and some of their strengths and weaknesses – you might find that interesting if you haven’t seen it yet. http://totallyadd.com/sponsored-video-5-medications-alphabetically/
Hang in there!
