Should I be getting generic medication, or search for specific brand names? I live in Australia, and the one time I got a brand name med it did literally nothing whilst the next time I got generic and it worked.
What gives?

Most of the time there is going to be minimal differences between brand name & generic versions of a drug. Occasionally differences in the pill coating and/or 'inert' fillers used can cause the drug to absorbed differently.

Luvox, brexpiprazole, ritalin and Armodafinil are the best mediations.

It doesn't matter, whatever is cheapest nigga, Australia has tight regulations on medications and their filler ingredients. I take generic luvox and it works fine

Obviously it's not the bloody same though, otherwise the med would've worked. Even when I upped the dosage I felt nothing

What med are you taking about? Brexpiprazole and luvox feel very neutral for me but decrease my rumination and hypochondria.

Honestly depends on what drug. Some formulations (branded or patented) can have different effects on some people. Although generic companies and branded companies claim there is bioequivalence, it actually depends on the makeup of the pill itself.

I am on Adderall, but everyone who has been on Ritalin tells me it lets them "stand" stuff more.

Like, imagine doing some mind numbing wagie work, you want to leave, get out, etc.. You can't stand it. Take Ritalin, and you can stand it.

Sounds reasonable/true

Like why would Adderall be any different though?

I prefer ritalin to amphetamines because the effects aren't killed by a1 blockers like brexpiprazole, vyvanse does nothing for me but ritalin gets me high af, some research also shows ritalin can be more rewarding than dexamphetamine when abused. Ritalin is also a sigma 1 agonist, I dont think dexamphetamine does that.

And ritalin DECREASES cytosolic dopamine while amphetamine increases it which leads to enhanced ROS formation damaging dopamine terminals, ritalin is neuroprotective
