I once played in two poker tournaments on back to back weekends.
Tournament 1 on adderall. Tournament 2 without adderall.
Tournament 1 my consciousness and subconscious seemed to be working in tandom. I knew what action to take, and why I was taking that action.
Tournament 2 my subconscious seemed to play a bigger role being off the adderall. I was making the right decisions for the most part same as the week before while on adderall, but I was not consciously completely sure of my reasoning for most decisions until several seconds, minutes, or even hours after I had reflected on my decision making.
A little food for thought

- skohan 8y agoI wonder if that's part of what's going on with autism-spectrum-disorders: i.e. an autistic mind doesn't set the threshold of what's worthy of conscious thought at as high a level as neurotypical people, so they get more caught-up in the low-level details.
