there was a time these substances energized me and I would be alert and awake the whole day. now if i take any of them I turn calm and sleepy. why is this happening?

Neuroadaptations? Try something with generally more of a calming action, you may find energizing effect. Adaptogens may work.
Schisandra, Ashwagandha, Ginseng and Rhodiola are few options.

Khemix,

Do you have more input or just asking a question that is about as vague as posting on Facebook "why do I have a headache?"

There are hundreds of answers, and several common reasons.

1.You're a drug addict with a high tolerance and the depression from not getting "high enough" is causing a mental exhaustion.

2.You are trying too hard with too many uppers. Sometimes, they just don't work.

3.Combining Adderall and Modafinil is a horrendous idea. Your body knows this and could put you into a state of subtle panic leading to exhaustion.

4. The world's an imperfect place.

5. You should always eat fatty foods and slow dose the caffeine with steady intake of the stronger drugs. Smashing up a handful at once kicks your ass.

6. You have a terrible disease and you may implode.

I agree. If you want serious answers you'll need to give us more details such as when they stopped working, how often you've been taking them, when your last break was, what your diet is like, what your sleeping habits are.. ect

like CACREW said we need more input.

What dose/brand of schisandra do you use. I’ve got Solary 500mg caps says to take 3x/day fat soluble. It’s a pain spacing them out wondering if you can just take all 3 at once.

Nature's Way Schizandra fruit 2 x 580 mg, twice a day. Pretty sure you'll get the benefits just dosing it all once a day. I did that too when feeling lazy.
