 yeah I was close to failing out of college, got on adderall and was getting straight As.  I miss it a lot, but it's definitely not good to be running yourself on overdrive like that for more than a little while.  I would never put my kids on it.

100% agree. I took it once I was an adult. A lot of my childhood ADHD symptoms were boredom and being a boy. I grew out most of them, other than not having a decade of practicing studying and the meds helped me have a bit more motivation.
