I was on Adderall for roughly 10 years, and it really didn't make me feel great. I tried taking larger doses when I was going through my 'experiment with all the new drugs' phase in high school, and didn't really get the euphoria I hear about. In general, Adderall in any dose makes me sweaty, smelly, and antisocial.
I hated taking it. Yet it would in fact improve my performance. For 3 years since my last filled prescription circa 2012 I had enough adderall to just take it whenever I felt like I 'needed it', which was rarely, because I hated taking it so much. Since I've run out, I do have issues with ADD still, but fortunately have been able to cope as an adult in my (now) 30s.
I do think having it on hand is really great for some people, but I don't think 'feeling great' is a unanimous experience.
