Don't know if you've tried it but I take Adderall XR. It's a slow release so it works through the day and because only a little bit it entering your system at a time, you don't feel like as much of a robot. I take 20 mg every day except for weekends so that my tolerance stays low and I also get a good burst of productivity at work at the start of the week. I've been on this kind of regimen for two years and it's helped me out a lot. Might be something to talk to your doctor about. In Canada at least, it would be a lot cheaper for me than smoking that much pot haha.

In the US 30mg Adderall XR -generic- runs me $120 a month. Namebrand is over $200. Crazy, huh.
