I suppose the other interesting part was the conversation around the placebo vs adderall study they did where there was no difference between the scores other than the question 'do you feel the stimulant helped with this test?'

At the same time, it was very limited in scope and had a general negativity toward stimulants as a treatment for ADHD, which More
