I didn't know - but I was adaptively self-medicating.

At one time it was Jolt Cola ("all the sugar and twice the caffeine!"), then energy drinks came along. I can drink 10 a day, because I genuinely function better that way.

But Adderall works really well now, and unlike caffeine, it doesn't set me up to lose sleep.

I did that for a bit, for the same reason. now couple of years developed issues with high blood pressure, so be carefull with that approach.
