My tested, tolerance resistant, heart healthy stack for mild ADHD

Goals:
Reduce ADHD symptoms like:
Poor time management, gazing out the window for two minutes (oops it was actually half an hour)
Weird emotional walls to doing simple tasks (it's just the dishes, why has a ten minute tasks given me anxiety for three days?)
General anxiety
Irritating fixations on random hobbies (I _need_ to spend as much time as possible researching orchid species, it's literally the only interesting things that exists... Wait fuck I don't want to have to take care of all these stupid jungle plants)
Intrusive interrupting thoughts (trying to focus on a conversation but my brain jumps in with a picture of a really cool castle it just imagined)
Inappropriate task fixation (I told my girlfriend I was leaving five minutes ago but first I need to do this chore I've already been putting off for months)
Weird floods of emotions (why does watching someone eating a hamburger make me want to cry?)
Occasional random days where NOTHING is interesting and I can barely feel emotions
So I've been developing a stack that alleviates all those symptoms, in a way that doesn't cause heart stress or ever increasing tolerance. And I have to say, it's been work…

I am getting a notification that you replied, and see your reply in your profile, but it is not visible in this thread. You seem to have the impression that sabroxy is a GABA agonist, and relieves anxiety. Sabroxy is actually a negative allosteric modulator, and causes anxiety. I have no concern that long term sabroxy use is frying my brain.
Hey /u/misteryouaresodumb, am I cooking my dopamine and gaba receptors by taking 300mg sabroxy a day?

No you are not. In fact, Sabroxy increases BDNF in the brain and is neuroprotective.

I actually combine Sabroxy with things that help positively modulate the GABA system, to balance out the anxiousness.
