That's how I felt until I discovered low therapeutic doses of extended-release amphetamine.
Now I'm 26 and take a pill 1-3 days each week I'm working. If you experiment, I wouldn't take more than 20mg of Adderall XR or 50mg of Vyvanse, and I'd start lower than that.
Best thing to happen to me.
If the reactions of "Just do it" and "Just be more disciplined" and "Just try this one weird trick" feel worthless to you, it's because they are. Everyone seem to has a judgmental opinion on this subject.
That really scares me. For one, these drugs are usually relatively new, known to be abused, known to lead to cases of addiction etc. And I'm scared it changes who I am even if it would radically improve my life. I mean don't get me wrong, I know these are edge cases, exceptions, and that for many people including yourself they have been a blessing.
Beyond that, it's not something I can get (without risk of getting something wrong) without getting diagnosed first. And while I'm glad for that, I'm also really apprehensive to go through the whole process, of months of talking and self reflection and filling out personality forms and keeping diaries and speaking to psychologists. The lack of motivation I have is such a stupid problem because it kills any action towards solving it.
Really appreciate your post in any case, I've written it down and will look into it more.
