Tolerance buildup on Concerta

I have been taking Concerta 54mg for over 10 years, I know take a 10mg Ritalin as a boost twice a day. Concerta 54mg + Ritalin 10mg first thing in the morning Mid afternoon I take the other Ritalin 10mg I have developed a lot of compensatory skills (behavioral). In my experience it us 15% medication + 85% behavioral change is what manages my ADD well

I would like to hear about what supplements you take and if you feel that it is helping.
