adderall helped my mood. when I needed to lose weight, I found phendimetrazine (Bontril) to be more effective than phentermine, and more tolerable.

Phendimetrazine is apparently considered more "addictive" than phentermine, but its cheap and your doctor can still give you refills, unlike adderall, ritalin, etc. It was one big capsule in the morning, and honestly...I found it to be about as effective as adderall, but smoother, somehow. And (as one might expect) it suppressed my appetite more than ritalin la, focalin, or adderall did.
