Help please

I know I should find out the information by myself and I promess i`ve spended my last year trying to do it by my own, but there is so much information and so contradictory that i`m completly confused and hopeless; I need help to cope with adhd, I`m sure you all understand that despair, but I am unable to find a treatament that works on me. I`m from spain and here the offer of tratment and information is smaller than in the States. The only choices here are alternatives are antidepresive or stimulant drugs.

I`ve tryied stimulant drugs(even when I don`t usually like the drugs option), ritaline and concerta. At the begenning it was like traveling to a brand new world, everything was clearer and..you know, I thought "oh, so these is what life is supose to be like?" wasa complet change for me...but it only worked for two days before the secundary efects start to show out, my hiperactivity was gone but my emotions were out of control and I had to stop taking it before I killed someone. It have been the same with all stimulant medication, I feel less nervious and more focuss but much more agresive. antidepresives make me sleepy and do not help too much with atention problems and organization wherever I loock at I read about diferent wreat alternative therapys (deathly expensive too!!!) for adhd that are supose to be better than medication, adn I alsor ead big number of "expert opinions" in favour and against every single option. i`m lost. ¿is any of those alternative therapys reliable?, ¿am I wasting a good oportunity to cure myself not using any of those and just treating the synthoms with drugs? ¿are drugs as bad as everyone says?, im so feed up with theorys and people sayng everyone elses but they lie for money...i just need to know what worked on you?, how could you make your life work with the normal amount of effort?, how can I know what to trust ?I need a guide
