I found that my ADHD med (Vyvanse) helps me function for about 8-10 hours, then I crash. It is better than nothing. I have wondered why there has not been research on this. I know that now every one can take these medications due to heart issues. I just know that without it, there are days I would not be able to do anything. There are still days, even taking the Vyvanse, that I am so fatigued and feel so poisoned that I can't do much. Thanks for bringing this up.

Thank you for that. Yes, any number of stimulant meds used for ADHD are what I'm considering (subject to PA's approval, of course).
I've long suspected that I am ADHD as a matter of fact. My understanding is that it's not unusual amongst welder/computer programmer/jeweler/chocolatier/video editor/sculptor/multi-instrumentalist music producers like myself.
In terms of the "crash", I'm considering whether Adderall, which is more of a time-release drug, if I'm correct, might be better for me. I know there's been some discussion of that drug on this forum.

Thank you so much for your valuable input!

I was put on ADHD meds to control my brain fog and help me focus on a day that I will be stressful or if i start going all over the place in my thanking but
