Weaning off adderall with the help of supplements.

Right, so, stupid adderall. I don’t have a problem with it, not addicted, taking it as prescribed, but I wanna be off. But I recognize that it changes and has changed my brain chemistry, and I can’t afford to deal with a week or a month or more of feeling lethargic. So, attempting to research how to transition off with the help of supplements.

Documenting my learnings in the hopes of someone being able to use this someday, because DANG has it been hard to find solid resources on this.

I guess it’s because supplements and prescriptions – that should probably be a regimen with doctor intervention. I will call out here…I am not a doctor.

Here’s the baseline you need to be working on:

Drink a ton of water, eat well, get 7-8 hours of sleep. Exercise, do yoga, do meditation. Eat things like sage, bone broth, cocoa, black currant, lime/lemon in water. Want a double whammy? Try drinks like Lokai Focus. Be kind to yourself. Etc.

Here’s some supplement options you can take in the morning on an empty stomach (probablyyyy not all of these – this is just what I’ve researched and found most people referencing):

Iron
Zinc
MCT oil
ALCAR 500 – 1000mg (BEFORE)
NA-R-AIA 150mg
B12, B8 (~300)
L-Theanine if edy, 200
Mag. L-Threonate
Vit D
L-tyrosine (500-1000) then CDP Choline (250-500)
Theracurmix
Vit. B
Ashwaganda – 1.25 g. daily
L-Theanine 200 mg
ALCAR
Cordyceps – before/after exercise
Citicoline – 425 mg., up to 90 days
Mucuna Pruriens – 200-500 , 4-5 days/week
Vitamin C – 10 g spread
Vitamin D – 5000IU
B12, B6
L-Glutamine
Adapt-232
NAC
Zinc
DLPA – 500 mg
Lion’s Mane
Min Chex from Standard Process – 30 min before meal

Then here is our list of what we can have with food/fat:

Omega-3
Theracurmin, 2 x day for 1 year
CoQ10
Noopept

How to supplement at night:

NALT
Magnesium
GABA
L-Tyrosine 1 hour, 500-1000
If under 25 mg. of B6, take 25-50 Pyridoxal
Magnesium Glycinate

And then here’s some I’m unsure how to fit in so far:

Rhodiola + Schisandra (ADAPT-232)
Gaia Adrenal Health
ALCAR – 2g for 3 weeks (hard on liver)
Reseratrol – no more than 2.5 g/day
Just Blue by Troscriptions
Crystal Clear Supplements – Adrafinil
Smart Mode + Unfair Advantage – Bulletproof

Now, vitamins get expensive. So I am trying to focus on what I have at hand.

Here’s my current morning list: Mucuna Pruriens 1000mg, L-Theanine 200 mg, Recoop Balance, NAC 600 mg, Saffron Mood Boost from Life Extension, L-Tyrosine 450 mg, Garden of Life Brain Health, Bonafide Ristela, Huperzine-A 200 mg, Genius Burn (again…not all of these, and many are getting pretty near empty.

And my afternoon/with food list: Vitamin D, Athletic Greens, Hello.me, Bonafide Multivitamin, Adrenal Support by 1 body, Adrenal Restore by 1st Phorm, Calm Day by Nutritional Frontiers, 5-HTP, and Omega-3.

And my night list: The above listed magnesium, 200-400 + some CBD 🙂

I’m eating a banana before I workout, and Club EarlyBird preworkout upon waking. Keto coffee around 10, bone broth around noon, veggies and hummus for daily snacks, and protein based meals for dinner. I’m still not eating enough calories, yet.

I’ll be updating you all as I test and try stacks, timing of medication, and food stuff. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
