I keep seeing comments like that on this sub, of all places! People with adhd typically don’t get high because they are prescribed a medicinal dose. Anyone who takes enough will get high and people who use stims recreationally typically exceed a medicinal dose.

Back in my 20s when I did some of my friends pills I absolutely did get high and it caused me to write off the possibility that I could have adhd despite the fact that I knew something was wrong with me and I was self medicating with all the stimulants. On top of that I always thought I didn’t have it because I could intensely focus (on my special interests) and I wasn’t bouncing off the walls (despite feeling restless inside).

Surprised surprise 20 years later I was diagnosed when I looked into it further after having exhausted every other possibility and realized I have like every fucking symptom to a T. So please let’s stop spreading misinformation on this platform, one of the few good resources online. End Rant.
