Many of my friends are programmers, and I have pretty open conversations with most of them. I know a few of them who have or still use various recreational drugs. I don't know anyone who uses Adderall.
Maybe it's different where ever you live, but in my neck of the woods "using Adderall to stay on top of things" seem virtually unheard of.

The tone you're using here seems quite judgemental to me. If I had to, I'd bet anyone working near you detects the same and is not going to be open with you about their use of such things.

If you only knew how ridiculous that statement is you wouldn't have made it. I don't understand why you keep insisting that everyone in the world must have the same habits as the people you know, or that there must somehow be something wrong with people ("no programmer friends", "judgemental attitude") if that's not the case.

In the US ADHD meds are commonplace, without even considering knowledge workers using them for increased performance.
