For the last 5 plus years I have researched neurochemistry and the role neurotransmitters play in the ADHD brain, and what we can do in order to help the deficiencies in lower levels of these specific neurotransmitters that give us problems. Stimulant medication only works with 2 of these neurotransmitters, but there are multiple other neurotransmitters that are of vital importance that are not being addressed, and this causes there to be quite a bit of negative symptoms/habits. I created an updated video on my ADHD YouTube Channel detailing this information in a comprehensible manner and share my current supplement/nootropic stack regimen, along with sharing info on how it helps those of us with ADHD. If you click my profile pic, it will take you to my profile, in which in my bio section, you'll see a link to my ADHD YouTube channel (the website will not let me link it in the post). Video on the youtube channel is titled "ADHD Supplements and Nootropics". Hope this helps.
