I am halfway between agreeing with both of you. There are many symptoms of ADHD that I consider severe impairments - especially the short term memory loss. However there are symptoms of it that I prefer over my state of my mind while medicated. The freedom of direction of thought is much more pleasant than the drive to focus intensely on one task - but is simply at odds with the world around me driven by productivity.

That isn't an issue for me when I am medicated. When medicated I have the ability to choose whether to focus or not, unlike when I am not medicated and focus is elusive at best.

  Different experiences I suppose. When medicated, focus is forced upon me. I have to be very diligent about setting alarms lest I end up working long past the time I have designated.
