MODERATORS
I benefit most from the amphetamine/dextroamphetamine ones, which give me an energy boost (e.g. vyvanse, mixed salts). Methylphenidate ones (e.g. focalin, concerta) give me only focus and it feels like everything else slows down, making for some long and tired days. I can’t speak for the strattera/guanfacine/Qelbree type stuff. But essentially if one particular category of the three types works, that’s your lane.
