I keep getting TikTok ads and whenever I see the shop logo in the corner or “sponsored” I scroll away. They claim to help AuDHD but I have no idea what to trust.

I’m curious about mushrooms, lions mane or whatever, and microdosing hallucinogens.

    is is the case with most health issues, certain deficiencies can cause certain issues. But, outside of having a specific deficiency, its all placebo.

    Will taking vitamin D and B12, magnesium, etc. cure your AuDHD? No.

    Could taking them make you feel better in some ways, freeing up some spoons/mental space to better handle whatever issues in your life that requires energy and focus to deal with? Yes, its possible. Assuming you are deficient, which, minor to moderate deficiencies in those three aren't uncommon.

      Yeah, those ones are definitely helpful. The non-vitamin or mineral I'd suggest is L-theanine, which is just great for anxiety

        L-dopa is worth considering too, especially if you aren't medicated for ADHD

          might try that instead of l-tyrosine when this bottle runs out. It feels like it does something but hard to say if just placebo, so moving one rung up the precursor ladder might be better?
