Hi.

I am a 26 yo male graduate student. I have adhd. I took a number of medications for adhd for 5 years. (adderall, dexedrine, strattera, provigil) and at this point in my life don't want to take any more medication. Yes I may study for hours but I become very addicted to the substances and forget what i study. I become a nervous wreck, anxious, depressed, and very irritable.

Its sunday and I cant get myself to study, I am so easily distracted. I can not even stay on task five mins. I have had four shots of expresso and I swear I could go to sleep right now. I am very tempted to start my dexedrine again but I am very proud of myself for not taking them for the past 3 months and plus I dont want to go through the hell of coming off again.

I just feel so dull and blah, cant concentrate... any advice.. alternatives:? Please help
