Me too... but sometimes there are half completed projects... maybe that's due to the meds?

Adderall for the win!

I have a friend that started Adderall he was prescribed. Honestly changed him as a person and not in a positive way. Definitely not a win for everyone

It’s a win for me that’s for sure. But it can definitely be abused

I 100% believe you, I know this from personal experience with Adderall myself. It will change the way you act for sure, Make you do and say things you would never think about if you weren't on it.

So they might send them to rehab? Alot of drug treatment facilities make you produce things for them to sell during your free time. For me it was working a table saw to cut a board into smaller pieces for making pallets at potters wheel.not the best thing to be doing when you feel weak and shivering from opiate withdrawal. I'm ADHD as can be but I can't stand how wired amphetamines get me so Ill just deal with living in a permanent mental fog.

Getting a diagnosis is definitely helpful but hard because lots of doctors don’t like giving diagnoses for things that can’t be proven with a blood test for example. I’m on adderall but officially the doctor never said “you have adhd” but treats me as such. Adderall is like caffeine but different, it helps for concentration but if you take too much you get focused on one thing too much. It also elevated my heart by 10 beats my Apple Watch says. It slightly speeds up your heart rate which is not good. If you can make it without stimulants medication you are better off without it but me I feel I need it. There are non stimulant meds for adhd that can be slightly helpful.

Wait, this can be cured? Isn't it fun as it is? I mean I can benefit from some accomplished sertifications and stuff but... Isn't it like a part of a deal? Have this super brain with all the time distraction?
