As someone with ADHD, that's really interesting. You describe the effect I get from amphetamines - focus and ability to ignore some distractions - your withdrawal, scatterbrained, that sounds familiar! Maybe dopamine levels are taking a little while to reset to normal and you get a day experiencing temporary ADD. At ADHD amphetamine dosages I've never noticed withdrawal effects.
So I went looking to see if it was being studied with ADHD. Despite showing effectiveness in several studies, it wasn't FDA licensed for ADHD because of "serious dermatological toxicity" {1]. That seems a bit odd.
