For what it’s worth, the effect isn’t miraculous for me. I don’t mean to sound preachy, but looking back on my mistakes, I should have paired low dose methylphenidate with more “self awareness” and specifically structuring my life for ADD.
And my subjective, low sample size experience was that methylphenidate worked best for the “less hyperactive” type of ADD, while newer drugs seemed to work better for friends with more hyperactivity.
