Buy some supplements that contain Vitamin D and Iron. Most people are deficient and it affects their mood. I got some meal replacements that basically contain everything and it's kept me in good spirits while everything is going to shit. I should be depressed, but I'm not.
EDIT: Iodine too. The over-the-counter stuff is called "kelp" and the reason they don't put it in multivitamins is because it metabolizes into a substance that in excess will give you gout. Iodine is hard to get from your diet so having supplements every now and then is important.
Tyrosine. It's a dopamine precursor. By itself, it mildly increases focus just enough to get non-preferred tasks started. It also makes completing tasks much more rewarding, which can start a positive feedback loop that leaves your space much more livable/less depressing.
Supplements suck that way, sorry. I've found a couple brands that work for me (Nature's Way, Horbäach), but I'm no supplement expert. I'd try to find a mid-price option that didn't seem too sketchy.
As for nootropic stacks and whatnot: never heard of them, although they seem interesting. I personally take 2g of tyrosine along with vitamin D and a vitamin B complex (plus a couple medical rx). I would start at 500mg-1g, and add more after a week if you felt you needed to. I have taken tyrosine with omega 3s but never regularly; I didn't notice an interaction at the time.
