Stimulant medication is a horrible thing for me. I don't take it anymore. It turned me into a puzzled teen.

Why is the drawing for ADHD a guy freaking out on his knees? That representation seems inaccurate and a bit insensitive. Maybe a small nitpick but as someone with ADHD I'm very sensitive to the prevalent negative stigmas. Otherwise thank you all for your great videos and work!

As a person with ADHD, the way you presented the Side Effects section for CNS stimulants is atrocious. You focused really heavy on the negative aspects as if they are opiates while speaking nothing of the positive affects that give many of us the only chance to function with normal society without struggling so hard every day. No wonder getting treatment is so hard and we're treated like drug addicts for a psychiatric disorder. The pediatric section was comprehensive; for adults, abysmal. About equivalent to a male telling a woman in active labor how much pain she's in.

I take extended release medication (lisdexamphetamine) 2x per day, like the immediate release medication, because otherwise I experience a dopamine crash during the evening.

This was very helpful as a possibly adhd adult wanting to learn more about medication. My family health doctor was very concerned about the heart side effects, saying that in 10 to 20 years I could be coming back for a heart valve if I start on something like ritalin. I figured that might be a bit exaggerated but told him I wanted to learn more.
