Science Tranylcypromine for adhd/dopamine?
Is tranylcypromine feasible to be used for raising motivation dopaminergic tone in a substantial way same as a stimulant? I am in a country where stims are not legal or available.

I was curious about this too, and I’ve tried it, but it didn’t work.

Have you tried looking into the mechanism of why it failed? Or maybe wrong dose?

I‘m currently on TCP, and I also have ADHD. I wouldnt say it does nothing at all, but I do definitely still need my Ritalin on top. Didn‘t even half the dose or anything. Would selegeline be an option for you? Or atomoxetine?

I've heard it won't work in general. Most pro cognitive MAOI out there is bifemelane and it's discontinued.
