Hi. I suffer from ADD and depression, which results in extreme lack of motivation, brain fog, confusion, mental slowness. I desperately need to be much smarter and more organised. I would appreciate any reccomendations of what to take and how much. Anything to help my mood would also be beneficial as half of the time I feel despair and the other half i feel numb. I am 19, eat healthily and dont drink or smoke.
I take royal jelly, ginseng, strattera (60mg). I dont take ginko because it improves circulation and I have a problem that sometimes my hands and feet will be purple and cold, and at others hand feet and face (especially nose) will be bright red and boiling hot! I can cope with the coldness but I don't want to risk increasing the red-nosed look! I used to take fluoxetine but stopped as the effects were short lived - i was as depressed as before after a month or two of taking it. I also take digestive enzymes and probiotics for IBS.
I am in the UK, so I don't know if some nootropic drugs are not allowed over here.
I would really appreciate some advice. Also try to keep answers relatively jargon-free - I am totally new to nootropics and I confuse easy!
Thanks!
