Adderall Advice - Page 5

I've been on Adderall for ADD for about 2 years. I took the regular for about a year and a half and switched to the XR after that. I have other issues too and take a cocktail of drugs in the morning, including 2 that make me sleepy. They are winning. I could easily take a nap anytime after the Adderall, and in fact frequently do come home on my lunch break to take a nap.
But it is working to keep my mind from wandering too much, and that's the main thing.

Alpha Lipoic Acid is an antioxidant which is also enhances energy production in the body. EFA is part of the Omega family. You can get either supplements or food sources include spinach, red meat and potatos(ALA), fish and nuts(Omegas) and peanuts are packed with magnesium.

I have been on it about that long also... I am on the XR form too. Do you mind me asking what other types of cocktails you are on.

In the morning I take 20mg Adderall XR, 100mg Wellbutrin (works well for depression), 20mg Lexipro (depression/OCD), 0.5mg Risperdal (works well for anxiety/OCD). In the evening I take another Risperdal.
It makes me tired just thinking about it.
