In regards to the actual "function"/effects...like the best energy/focus
I'd say this stuff right here, "Aqua-Dopa".

Pretty much all other "energy drinks" out there, and almost everything in this thread, are nothing more than an enormous amount of sugar, tons of caffeine, and a shat load of b-vitamins...None of which actually gives me "energy", they just keep me mentally awake/wired and usually end up making me all scatter-brained and then crash after.
Aqua-dopa doesn't actually contain much caffeine at all...rather it is based off of the herb mucuna-pruriens, which contains the dopamine pre-cursor L-dopa...So the "energy" from this drink is dopaminergic based rather than caffeine, more similar to a classic stimulant...This drink also contains green tea extract (helps with the bio-availability of the l-dopa in the mucuna pruriens), ginseng, and ginkgo.
It's much better than any other so-called "energy drink" that I've had....It doesn't just give me a scatter-brained caffiene buzz like most other drinks out there....It makes my head clear and awake, lots of sharp focus, an uplifting & motivating buzz, and it makes me suuuuper horny. The stuff cranks up my sex drive so much (because of the mucuna-pruriens), just like stimulants do.
I've always called mucuna pruriens "herbal adderall" or "herbal amphetamine" for a reason....that stuff gets me ziiingin' with such a smooth energy/focus and a buzz that's almost euphoric (reminiscent of adderall/amphetamine) and cranks up my libido/sex drive just like amps do....No crash, no jitters or feeling scatter brained, no dumping stupid amounts of sugar and b-vitamins into your system....just smooth & focused energy.
It's the only "energy drink" I've come across that isn't the same as all the others out there...everything else is just caffeine, sugar, and b-vitamins...which again, doesn't do much of anything for me in regards to true mental/physical "energy".

If you end up trying, report back. I looked that aquadopa stuff up but I don't want to spend $5 a drink when bought in bulk.
Also I know you can buy that help independently for a fraction of the price. Though I have not myself.

1. Black Coffee 2. Yellow Red Bull
I drink about 15-20 cups of coffee in a 24 hour period so I have to drink it black. Between that and being on adderall I'm sutprised my heart hasn't exploded. I only snag a yellow red bull if I dont have time to make coffee on my way out the door...the headaches I get for not having it at this point are insane, so I brew a couple pots at work to get me through the night.
Ive never drank so much caffeine before, but I actually have to drink a little bit when I am sleeping to not get a headache. Usually I drink some cold when I get up to piss....or if my head pounding against the pillow wakes me.

That is pretty pricey.
I was getting it from my local grocery store for $1.99 a can, sometimes $1.49 when on sale. I haven't bought any in a while though.
You can always just purchase the mucuna pruriens beans/powder by itself (mucuna is the main component of that drink)...It can be found online pretty cheaply.
Mucuna is best taken with some strong green tea or green tea extract though (or something with a lot of EGCG, Epigallocatechin gallate), otherwise the L-dopa in the mucuna isn't all that bio-available

Dude the sounds so terrible.
Why do you have to drink so much coffee even while you are on adderall!?
That's gotta be several grams of caffeine per day.
How do you sleep at night after consuming amphetamine and multiple grams of caffeine every single day!?
How much water do you drink?...Even just a couple cups of coffee will dump out a lot of hydration for me, I can't imagine how much hydration one would lose if they're drinking up to 20 cups of coffee per day.
How did you end up in the situation of having to drink up to 20 cups of coffee every day even while on adderall?....Do you have any plans or desire to stop consuming so much coffee/caffeine ?
Just thinking about that much coffee makes my head hurt, and in combination with amphetamine, that's just crazy lol ...to me, that sounds like nothing but a migraine and a heart attack and a loss of sanity and sleep....Coffee/caffeine throws my entire system out of balance, even at just 2 cups per day. I do looove coffee though, but for me it is super addicting and gives me lots of side effects so I only drink the stuff occasionally.

A physician I worked with told me studies show coffees diuretic effect only makes you pee out the amount of the coffee on average. I think most assume it is a net negative. That sounds like a net neutral.

Working 45-60 hour weeks on midnights only. Night managing 2 hotels. Some shifts up to 14-15 hours, with my daily commute being taxis that take forever to pick me up and drive slow as fuck. I barely have time to sleep. I gotta make sure Im up for a while when I get home because I have 3 dogs and 2 cats. I need to interact with them and feed them before crashing so hard the main thing that wakes me up is having to piss with a pounding headache.
I brew 7 cups with my percolator at home before my cab comes, and then I brew a 24 cup pot at work. Theres nights ill kill the whole lot ( and since its hotel coffee I put 7.5 ounces of grounds to a 24 cup pot ). I consume roughly 10-12 ounces of grounds in a 24 hour period, give or take.
I pee constantly. Smoke way too many cigs. And take 45 mg of adderall a night. With my caffeine tolerance, the only energy I get is from the adderall.
Usually about mid shift I have a full on wave of depression and a lot of manic crashing. By 6 am I feel like my body just accepts I wont be sleeping and gives me a second wind.
Once I get home I take a kpin, belsomra, melatonin, chamomile tea, and about 2 grams of valerian root. Takes almost 2 hours for it to work, but it knocks me out hard. I spend a few hours cuddled with my dogs having extreme nightmares and rinse repeat.
I need to make some changes in my life. Everything I take is either natural or prescribed and not abused ( aside from coffee, I am abusing the fuck out of it. )
A good part of me is so absolutely depressed, that a heart attack would be a blessing. Without my pets Id be non functioning/imprisoned.
Cant sleep on the job. Cant let the animals down. Gotta pay the bills. Trying to save up for a car aswell.Night

P.s I also eat A LOT despite. I dont know how, but I've gained 10 lbs since this all started. They have incredible food at one of my hotels and I get free meals when theres banquets. Between that and the junk the food pantrys give me when I can make it over there, im getting by and overall I feel healthier....until I realize Im aging faster than I can percieve.
Maybe it is the age ( turn 34 a few months ago ) but I have crows feet and hair greying faster than ever...and ive never been so stressed. At least Ive been off opiates for over 2 years. That's huge to me.
