>>19562009I don't take Adderall mate, we can't get it here, and nobody said it makes you smarter, for me personally it lets me stop overthinking and overanalysing every tiny little thing and just focus on whatever is present. I can focus on what people are telling me in work now and explaining to me, I can absorb things better because I'm focused on whatever is being discussed/explained.
In uk we can get Elvanse(Vyvanse) which is a slow release or Concerta/Ritalin which is a quick release and still nowhere near Adderall.
I don't know about physiology differences between people I haven't looked it up or researched it but what you're saying is that basically all drugs should affect all people the same way which is just not true, it's why there's many variants of any given drug plus the variance in dosage prescribed.
And yes, Elvanse absolutely calms me down, I bite the skin on my fingers way less, am way less anxious, and I can concentrate better/focus better on whatever I'm doing at work without going down 1000 rabbitholes of random tangents. I can also speak better because my mind is racing less and I'm more easily able to focus on the topic at hand instead of having a million different thoughts flying through my head at once.
I don't know the science behind any of this and I don't pretend to. My basic understanding is that because I have abnormal/less of the 3 neurotransmitters (Dopamine, Norepinephrine and Adrenaline) my brain is basically trying it's hardest to find stimulation and it's why I was emotionally unstable, craving junk food 24/7, binge eating etc. The stimulants give your brain the stimulation that it was lacking and allows it to focus since it's not craving the dopamine etc that it's missing. This is my very basic/rudimentary understanding of it. Of course this could be wrong, this could be oversimplified by doctors to sell meds and pad their own career, it could be pushed by big pharma kikes, I have no idea. But I can def say it's helped me.
