Disastrous formula : for health. That's a lot of medications and MJ to be taking together for psychic stability of your mind. Please have your psychiatrist evaluate your medications additive effects that could be a posing a danger that you're combining together. No time to worry about relationship until this is taken care first! You can't be drinking alcohol or OTC weight loss meds while on this lethal combination.

Therapy?: Have you yet tried any form of psychotherapy? Typically, the optimal combination of things to treat emotional issues such as depression is medication (which, on your best day, is supposed to take the edge off symptoms) but the real gruntwork takes place in psychotherapist's consulting room.

I would say, that the chemical imbalance is a priority. Then, psychotherapy might be a choice if the person gets motivated to explore his behavior through that approach.

Are the amphetamines: all prescribed? Seems odd to have both Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) (which has two amphetamines) and "other prescription amphetamines" on board at the same time. Check with your MD and be careful not to overdose. You need this many stimulants to manage two jobs? Do you use pot to come back down? To sleep? Seems like the girlfriend is the least of your concerns.

See MD: You can not take amphetamines and adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine). Not good for you. Please review your meds with your doctor and follow their advice. Stimulant medications need to be properly prescribed. I recommend against use of Marijuana, especially with other drugs in your system.

Amphetamines: Amphetamines aka "speed" can be addictive and dangerous. I would see a good psychiatrist and get reevaluated. Are you seeing more than one physician for your meds?

Very risky: You have very risky behaviors. It's best to sit down and honestly talk with your doctor about the prescription and non prescription drugs you are using. Once you are better situated you can pursue relationships.

Perhaps the use of Amphetamine, Marijuana and having two jobs may actually be the reasons you can't find a girlfriend.
