The secret is to take in enough mild stimulant (coffee, pre-workout or whatever) that it becomes so unpleasant to do nothing that you’ll do whatever to make it stop.
Honest question, do depressants give you energy? Like if coffee makes you want to sleep, can you take 2 benedryl and feel like you want to run a marathon?
For some folks it actually does, my dad gets that kind of response from some usually sedating meds. He may or may not have ADHD but I do and it runs in families... my mom is undiagnosed but probably has it though.
Same for me, but if I exceed 5-6 cups of coffee in a very short time my whole body starts tingling to the point where I need to take my mind off it to not go insane.
Listen I spent all last night recovering from the shit you didnt have energy for yesterday and if you want me to make energy for today too we are gonna need at least 30% more sleep
yeah then i don't care. i'm drinking it for the flavor mostly. my runner up is whole milk and oh crab lordy let's hear the whinge y'all have about that.
This morning I woke up at 5 am (consequences of summertime) watched the finale of daredevil, used my computer for the remaining hours then went back to sleep and eventually back to bed - woke up with so much mental clarity it felt like I'd died.
The last two hours of sleep are clearly the most important and I wouldn't shame anyone for taking a nap right after waking.
Funny thing is exercise helps with that (barring disability in which case talk to a doctor), but in general the less you move the worse you feel and it takes a bit to kick in

doesn't work :( stimulants make me sleepy :(
ADHD ftw! I'll never be able to enjoy cocaine like normal people.
Upgrade your stimulant to cocaine. Note I am not that kind of doctor
i had medikinet for a while, which has some deit-metamphetamines in it, it made me so sleepy it was difficult to get through the day :)

nope 😭 those also make me sleepy
the only things that give me energy are the lame af healthy diets, good sleep, exercise, and sunlight

Just do amphetamines
Won’t do that again until it is my doctor who prescribes it.
i don't think Doctor Who actually has a medical license
But I will trust him with my life mere moments after meeting him!
Pretty sure at least 6 and 12 are willing to work around that.
No good. I can’t pay attention to anything for more than five seconds, and I can’t sit still.
And then I get horny
Throw in "also, we're having an anxiety attack and everything hurts for no good reason!" and hey, it's the past 30+ years of my life!
"Well actually, not so much 'forgot' as uhh... How do I say this... I never intended to make the energy. Just didn't feel like it. Sorry, not sorry."

my "cup" of coffee
Sugar gives you energy
I don’t like sugar in my coffee
I do oat milk because it is milky and carby and it tastes good
If it’s fermented, it’s also higher in sugar afaik
a teaspoon of oat milk is higher in sugar than a teaspoon of sugar?
no, just compared to other milks

Shit, I woke up at 5 AM and didn’t watch the finale of daredevil!
Watch? Daredevil? You monster
Depends on your timezone whether it was even possible

How do I fire my body?
