1) Starbucks Caramel Macchiato - I know it may sound a little silly, but Caffeine works WONDERS for my depression!!!! I've tried other types of coffee like Dunkin donuts, and none others work at all except Starbucks.
2) Non-XR Adderall - This is the only medication that I was EVER prescribed that actually did its' job. Unlike caffeine, Adderall is actually calming and makes me listen, pay attention MUCH BETTER, and improves my eye contact too! I am also able to read & comprehend large text passages ---- things that I am usually unable to do.I always have these nasty, suicidal, intrusive thoughts that I cannot distract myself from no matter what I do: Watch a movie, play a game, read a book ---- NOTHING gets rid of these intrusive thoughts. If I'm in a conversation with a person, everything the person says just goes in one ear and out the other because I cannot get rid of these intrusive thoughts that obstruct my concentration and attention.
