I have to take adderall, which is an amphetamine used for ADHD, in order to have any energy to get thru my day and live as close to normal life as possible. Does anyone take or do something else to deal with overwhelming fatigue?

I also take adderall for narcolepsy. Depending on day it really doesnt do that much. I also have hypothyroidism, vit b12, and d deficiencies. I get a b12 shot and take a vit d 10000units. This entire week I have felt like a slug. I want to do alot but have no energy. What is that provigel for? I have tried coffee, mt dew, energy shots... Now I just do what can. Sometimes I get a big job done and then get all excited for the accomplishment lol
Gosh drs here would never prescribe that!
Yes, I take adderral for fatigue. I am good in morning, but after 12:30pm I cannot stay awake. I have been driving and got the feeling I can’t stay awake. Some days adderral works, others I can take it and fall asleep immediately.
I make myself go for a walk,that seems to liven me up,but i crash by afternoon.The farigue is a dreadful thing,its more than just feeling tired
How did you manage to get Ritalin? That is a miracle drug for fatigue. They took it away from me over two years ago & I miss it dearly.
