I've seen so many people without ADHD describe taking Adderall, making it sound like the god damn drug from Limitless (and is probably what inspired that movie TBH), and then people who take it for ADHD also sound like they gained the super power of "not fucking up constantly."
So I've wanted to try the shit even before I found out I had ADHD myself, and want to try it especially now that I know I have ADHD.
That's just an ADHD thing. They can do a line of coke and all it does it allow them to feel like they don't have ADHD for a little while.
That was exactly my experience. It was the most boring drug ever, just made me focused. My friends were partying around me, and I was like "cool, I can plan my meals for the week in my head. Yay."
I guess YMMV on whether focused is boring or not. I agree that I never really found stimulants to be super interesting, but thats partly because it was too expensive to do coke just to work on whatever project was on my mind.
