I'm sorry that me sharing my experience left you feeling furious. It was not my intent. I did not claim to have an ADHD diagnosis. I stated I was taking off-prescription and shared the dosage - well below a typical adult prescription amount. It's entirely possible I do not have ADHD, but I did see significant benefits, the ones you describe like a silent mind, attentiveness, patience, for a period of time. Then those things faded away, I stopped taking, and experienced side-effects as my body normalized to not taking. Is there a way I could've shared my story that would've been less upsetting?

> I did see significant benefits, the ones you describe like a silent mind, attentiveness, patience, for a period of time. Then those things faded away, I stopped taking, and experienced side-effects as my body normalized to not taking. This is exactly how someone without ADHD is affected by Adderall. The medication has two functions: increased alertness and focus, which you build a tolerance to, and improved executive control, which is only relevant for folks with ADHD, and your body generally doesn't build a tolerance to.
