It was hard to sleep but awake/alert without the side effects of true stimulants. I don't know how to explain it, it's milder and non pleasurable, but certainly noticeable. The lack of euphoria makes it less addictive, almost non addictive. |

I've never heard of a doctor not prescribing a stimulant due to bi polar disorder... I could see if you had heart problems otherwise, get some and be awake... Usually if I take 1 pill, I'm up for 2 days... |

Ephedrine used to work but it is no longer over the counter Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72613194 Try a homebrewed tea, strong blend. Take 6 black tea bags, 6 green tea bags. Boil a pot of water, add all the tea bags, let it sit. Add to a gallon pitcher with a shy one cup of sugar and keep in frig. After three weeks you’ll be calm and very active. My two cents. |

No more foods with huge lists of ingredients you can barely read or pronounce. No artificial colors, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, no HFCS. No More Garbage Toxic Food. I'd also recommend avoiding certain oils, canola, and cottonseed being the most common. Colon cleansing. Toxins build up, fester and cause all sorts of illness and fatigue. Try P & B shakes (do a search). And enemas or colon hydrotherapy if you're brave enough. I understand the aversion, they are kind of gross, but they really do wonders for people with a toxic colon. For someone with chronic fatigue, coffee and sugar for energy is a bad idea. It just tends to make things worse. 5-htp can help with mood. And last but not least EXERCISE. Even if it's just walking around the block. It makes a huge difference, and helps your body function properly. |

Ephedrine used to work but it is no longer over the counter Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72613194 Can purchase ephedra tea anywhere online legally. It comes in whole stems that need brewed. Natural stimulant. No chemicals. Just drink a half cup in morning like coffee. |

[link to selfhacked.com (secure)] Started taking it hoping it would provide a mood lift and later realized I really felt like doing stuff. Things you just don't feel like doing when you're down all the time (and drinking). But I've suddenly been in the mood for getting things done that I've put off for way too long. |
