Getting bitchy
Yesterday I was very anxious and irritable. Every chore and decision was excruciatingly painful. However, I was able to get the cover off the pool and hooked up the pump and filter. My mood was dark because I stopped taking my Adderall Saturday. I temporarily suspended use of the drug because even with the higher dose it was not very effective and I was experiencing headaches; and, I just hate taking it. I want to feel "good" without the aid of a stimulant. Given the stressful nature of my life lately I don't expect to realize that goal anytime soon. I took a smaller dose today and while it does not work great I am at least productive. I hit the weights hard and I will try to get a decent nights sleep.

Just like with anything else, you're going to have your good days and your bad days.
Hope you're on the upswing now.
A pill will never help you, so writing about the pills you take is just furthering the illusion that they will do anything, and is making your obsession over their debated effects a bigger part of your life than it should be. Plus, the writing is boring.
What you need is a lifestyle change. That's all anyone really ever needs. To "feel good." To "lose weight." To "be happy and productive."
Pills won't do anything to produce those natural things... Lifestyle changes are the only thing people, with the exception of those with inherent disabilities, really need.
