Caffeine? For ADHDers? Idk about the rest of you, but that doesn't help me accomplish anything. Anger in the other hand ..

    Anger helped with some things, but it usually took the sheer panic of imminent doom for my mind to agree to do the shit I needed to.

    Even on Vyvanse I can still have issues, but as long as I get myself going in the right direction, I'm usually good.

    The trick is to drink seven cups of coffee over the course of an hour. You skip straight from feeling nothing to jittery limbs and an acute awareness that you have a heart and it is straining far more than it should.

    It doesn't help anything, but you DO feel it.

    From experience, everyone else starts talking intolerably slowly, and giving you worried looks. You have time to plan your entire project between their sentences, and come up with at least three major revelations before they've finished their point, but when you escape, you're so focused on the task in front of you that you forget them all. Caffeine giveth and caffeine taketh away.
