For those suspicious but who do not have a diagnosis (or who have a diagnosis but who can't use the usual stimulants), I've found the following supplements helpful. I'm a 5' 11", 190 pound man (for reference in regards to dosage).

In descending order of apparent impact (yes, anecdotal, though the psychiatrist recommended them based on published research):

- L-Tyrosine

- Fish oil (3 g daily)

- Pycnogenol

- general amino acid supplement (covers most of them but not the L-tyrosine listed above)

- Magnesium (500 mg)

- Men's multivitamin

... interesting to note that apart from the fish oil, this is almost exactly the reverse order of when I started each one.

Increases my suspicion that there's a cumulative effect, at least for me.
