Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you need some stimulant, that would keep you active. You would prefer modafinil or armodafinil in your case. It is psycho-stimulant and help in maintaining attention. You need prescription for that as it is not available over the counter. Better to consult a psychiatrist or physician for prescription. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
