Best one for motivation?

[Tyler Stephenson]

Hey hey I was diagnosed with inattentive adhd and I'm currently taking vyvanse and while it does improve focus, still easy to fall asleep. I take 40 then 30 later on in the day since it wore off too fast with just one dose in the morning.

Would adderall or some other stimulant be better for wakefulness and motivation? Just trying to find the right one for me.(modafinil does not work on me)

Adeline tends to help with focus, but motivation is an eternal situation. It helps with attentiveness, but finding a purpose assists with motivation. If you don't want to do it now, then having a stimulant isn't going to make you want to do it.

My understanding is some medicines are noepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitors which increase the amount in your system but don't directly simulate their release. This makes you more focused and feel less impulsive but doesn't do anything for motivation. Some medication directly stimulate the release of these things which then give you an association with dopamine for completing tasks, which leads to motivation.
