    There's little information on how modafinil works - it is a DRI, but it's an exceptionally weak one. There's a 7% increase in extracellular dopamine (amphetamines can be up to 600%, for reference). Labeling modafinil as a DRI and dismissing it because it ever so slightly increases dopamine is incredibly reductive and while factual, untruthful.

    Someone had to say it. He says dopamine reuptake inhibition is its main mechanism of action which is not true at at. It’s a eugeroic aka wakefulness promoting agent. I’ve taken plenty of both and trust me, modafinils effect on dopamine is weak if even noticeable. Although it does come with other concerns for me so I don’t use more than once per week.

    Adult ADHD, in my research/experience, can be differentiated best by the executive dysfunction and working memory issues. More strongly inattentive and hard to diagnose if long-term depression/anxiety. If you don't show dopamine deficiency you don't have it. It's extremely legit in adults, and often overlooked because it's so over and misdiagnosed in low-IQ kids who have no impulse control.

    I've taken adderall plenty of times, IR & ER, and I've been on both Provigil and Nuvigil for over a decade. My job demands it, being on call 24/7/365 and never going to sleep or work at the same time twice. Adderall initially, works wayyyyyy better. Much stronger, but after 4, 5, 6 days of it, you don't get that same "hit". I find Provigil and Nuvigil to be much better in that area, meaning I can take it daily for awhile and I still get results. Also, Adderall, being an amphetamine, is physically addicting and you will notice withdrawal if you take it for awhile and stop. Never felt any withdrawal from stopping Provigil or Nuvigil.

New hires say the same exact thing, and yet the 5 year retention rate is less than 30%. So many quit within the first 2 - 3 years. No time off, work every weekend, holiday, always gone from family, miss all your childrens games, birthdays, etc.... For most, by year 2 or 3, the same new hires that said "OMG.

    Amphetamines are neurotoxic and Aderal is a combination of 2 amphetamines, but four amphetamine salts. AlphaGPC is a true nootropic, but it's most often used together with racetams like piracetam, aniracetam, oxiracetam, pramiracetam or phenylpiracetam.

    Please don't listen to this clown, go see a psychiatrist. It could be chronic depression , ADHD , SCT , Aspergers syndrome, all of which can be very subtle, but the hard times add up over time and give you this sense of demotivation. They will run a few tests on you, and MRIs are usually a good indicative of neuro-divergence, that in turn prevents you from studying. After that you'll have to take a few tests to try and narrow down the search and then finally get a diagnosis. It can be a lengthy process but mental health should always everyone's be the #1 priority. Good luck!

    As someone prescribed pure dextroamphetamine, I agree that stimulants aren't *real* nootropics and don't help noetically. That said though, various psychedelics (especially psilocybin) can be and are incredibly powerful nootropics. Psilocybin is like straight up brain food and probably the most powerful nootropic in existence.

    @@coled1218 I can even break it down how it works. Shilajit is 60-70% fulvic acid. Fulvic acid is the final form of decomposing organic matter. Hence why pesticides, herbicides and germicides are horrible for our crops. Because they don't let the fungus and mold grow and break down the organic material. And then the dirt doesn't make any of these good acids that we need to transport minerals and nutrients into our body. So we can add minerals out the ass to the soil and they have no way of making it into our body. And if they do make it into our body through supplements we have no way of absorbing these supplements without humic, humus and fulvic acids. Fulvic acid is a micro nanoparticle that can penetrate any cell in the body. It can carry 70 times it's molecular weight into a cell and puts the nutrients where it needs to go. Without fulvic acid we are most likely mineral deficient.

In people with ad(h)d they affect the production and uptake of neurotransmitters in a manner that makes it possible for ADHD brains to function more like normal people's. TLDR: It's not going to massacre your braincells or anything. Just don't abuse it. Take the minimum you need to fix your problem. Be aware that taking stims for long and suddenly stopping will cause withdrawals. Good luck and godspeed

Of course it's good to be skeptical and there's always the possibility of secret illegal deals but you gotta be realistic.
