How does meditation effect or interact with ADHD medications such as Adderall?
Darawaba
I have been diagnosed by Western doctors as having bipolar disorder, and I have been taking various meds over the years. I am also a meditator, with fifteen years experience. I can tell you, with no hesitation, that meditation is *fantastic* for people with a higher energy state. In my view, both the manic phases of bipolar and ADHD are examples of this state.
As a person learns to watch the mind, feelings, and physical sensations, s/he gains the ability to catch inappropriate or harmful behaviors in the first instants that they arise. One gains the ability to see things as they come up, *before* one acts on them, so one has more choices as to how to move in the world.
Also, meditation has been shown in many studies to induce calming effects on various sections of the nervous system.
I would suggest finding a meditation which feels right, and going for it.

There is still little known about the interactions of ExtenZe but I have found through research that it is designed to be taken like a multivitamin.

Is it ok to mix Diet Coke with Adderall?
This question has two answers. Diet Coke has caffeine in it and caffeine works on the brain the same way Adderall works on the brain. Therefore, the initial effect of mixing the two may be to increase the effect of Adderall. However, caffeine is also a diuretic and diuretics have the effect of washing Adderall out of your system. Therefore, drinking any significant amount of diet coke will decrease, if not totally eliminate, the effect of Adderall.
