    Would you say one’s response to Adderall is a reliable indicator to whether one has ADHD?

      No. I don’t know enough about how adderall works to speak confidently like that. I know it’s an indicator, but that’s about it

      I’d say if it just makes you kinda normal you might, but it not doing that doesn’t necessarily rule out ADHD, not every stim works for everybody.

      It’s more of a hey you should probably look into this than a confirmation on it’s own.
