That's why I use nootropics instead of caffeine. Specifically this stuff. (Ingredients)

No jitters, just dopamine. Slows my brain down, takes away the depression, and allows me to actually get shit done instead of sitting in front of the computer all day. A full capsule is too much, but they're easy to open and extract the powder. I get 2-3 doses from a single pill.

The effects of this particular blend I take are extremely similar to Adderall. It feels like it literally turns off my ADHD for a few hours. Unfortunately, it's so similar to Adderall that it also has a similar comedown. But for a brief moment, it allows me to be a functional adult, and for that reason alone it's worth it.
