minus-squarewhogivesashit@lemmygrad.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 months agoI mean stimulants are what they give you to treat ADHD. Adderall, Vyvanse etc. Many undiagnosed adhd people self medicate with smoking and coffee. In my experience caffeine does help, but not as much. I find tea to be better than coffee. Nicotine was honestly the most effective outside of controlled substances, but a nasty habit so I gave it up.
