Brief Answer:
Adrenal support is a myth
Detailed Answer:
Sorry to note how you feel. The concept of taking so-called adrenal support pills lacks credible scientific basis. Authoritative Endocrine bodies have categorically stated so. I strongly advise you to stay away from such pills. Regarding your symptoms of fatigue and diarrhea it would be worthwhile to run the following tests : CBC, CMP, TSH to get a preliminary idea of what is going on with further testing based upon a systematic assessment that should include an in-person physical examination
