I thought they were supposed to be stimulating

One of the things that helped me find the right prescription stimulant in my 30s was telling the prescribing doctor that I had tried cocaine in my 20s and found it very calming.
"Here's the address of my dealer, suit yourself."
Prescriptions are way cheaper!
Maybe not in the US
Yes, apparently they can do a lot with that information. I'm not sure what to say though. Coffee can make me really tired, or extremely stimulated like a cartoon squirrel.
Cocain isn't calming at all! It tastes horrible, makes my throat go numb and dry which makes me gag, while everyone else seems to be somehow enjoying themselves and wanting more.
I'll be over here smoking my 16th joint of the afternoon while daydreaming of every anime fight scene I've ever seen all at the same, while taking out only half the trash before I start mowing either only the front or back yard while 2 songs simultaneously play in my mind thank you very much
You probably don't have ADHD.
Nah babe, all our brains are wired different! Plus even a trained medical professional wouldn’t make an assessment like that over one comment, c’mon lol
I don't think it's that cut and dry. Coffee makes me jittery AND sleepy
Lol yes I told my doc I tried Adderall in high school with a friend and we were both like wow I feel so focused. She then later got diagnosed and I was like yeah, she told me I should get checked out. Turns out there's a reason I felt focused lol.
