Its impossible to make a general statement, since your supplement intake should be based on your diet (what you lack in your diet, you supplement)
Most people (except those eating fish almost every day) need more Fish Oil.
Whey Protein is more or less a convenience thing, since its simpler and faster (esp post workout) than a real meal. Also, if you like a particular meal very much, but it doesn’t contain enough protein you can still eat what you want and simply add a shake in between. Its usually not really ‘needed’ except when you’re cutting, since a proper diet should contain enough protein.
If you do eat lots of meat, eggs, fish and poultry you don’t need additional creatine, otherwise you should supplement it.
That goes for every ‘mainstream’ supplement you can buy, you need to check your diet, if you lack it you supplement and if your don’t, you don’t need to.
Yeah, well I manage to eat a decent amount of eggs/chicken/cottage cheese.
I do take protein shakes as I really struggle with work and feeling full to get all of the protein I need from normal foods. I’m also not very organised. A load of shakes that I can throw together is easier than remembering to buy more cottage cheese or boil eggs etc.
Red meats I like, but I’m not a fan of eating too much so creatine is a possitive option for me.
Fish oils - really dont like seafood and so omege oils again are a good option for me. I do eat nuts which give the fat/oil but I dont eat enough.

Looks like you aren’t getting a great deal of fruits and vegetables in your diet. Try to eat more and use Superfood one scoop in on of your shakes a day will help with this imbalance. Flameout is essential as well.
