two of my friends at different times called me and spoke for an hour each, how they suddenly realized that they have ADHD, got diagnosed, got meds, and how their life is completely different now. Sounded almost like they joined a cult or something, but I've been happy for them. In half a year initial joy subsided. I guess they got their new normalcy or something, it doesn't sound like they're having any adverse side-effects.
I still don't want to go this route, I had my ups and that was glorious. Also I hope to get a pilot license one day.
I've heard that a lot, to the point where the advice was not to listen to the advice of people who have been on their ADHD medication for less than a year due to the initial boost.
It's usually more helpful to base decisions on actual studies instead of random anecdotes where you have zero verifiable background information about the patient cases.
