MODERATORS
The best way I would describe how they help me it is that they give me the ability to choose what to do or think on much more intentionally, even if that ends up being nothing because I am not motivated. So from my experience (aderall and vyvanse) they won’t give you motivation but they will let you be more in control of your mind which is always good.
Same. It almost like the volume knob of all the 'static' (random thoughts) gets turned down and you now have the peace to concentrate on something without having to shut everything out, like when hyper-focusing.
