Alternatives to ADHD Medication
i know many have said that you won’t find anything that compares to adhd medication like adderall or vyvanse but that’s specifically what im looking for. whenever i would take adhd medication (whether stimulant or non stimulant) not only would it increase my brain fog (even at the lowest possible dose) because i have a super sensitive nervous system that disregulates pretty easily but i also feel like it dimmed my sparkle )):, i would almost feel like a robot, and everyone would know when i was on it because i wasn’t as chirpy and giggly as i normally am. i want to feel like my regular self except im able to concentrate and understand things more easily like my peers but naturally. i would argue im a pretty healthy person (eat my complex carbs with lots of veggies and lean meats, 10k steps per day, 9 hours of sleep, consistent sleep schedule), so energy wise im pretty okay but the problem just seems to be up there in my brain.
edit: i also want to clarify that physically demanding jobs are super easy for me, i can work out, clean and do other physical chores easily. its not the same for mentally demanding jobs (like writing emails, doing homework, etc.) so all i really need are some mental aid supplements.
