Not all stimulants are the same- dexedrine used to (I haven't taken it for decades) make me jumpy, Provigil made me feel totally weird, but I find Adderall to be relatively gentle and it helps with my mental clarity.
When Lamictal was my only mood stabilizer, I had to go up to 600mg to get fairly stable and it gave me some brain fog at that dose. I'm much better now all around with a lower dose of Lamictal and some Abilify. I'm also taking a different AD than I was back then.
