What a lot of people probably don't realize is that stimulants like Coffee (or even Speed) depend on the brain's structure. ADHD Brains work differently and they respond different to stimulants. And people don't like it when ADHD people self-medicate with coffee because they think it would make it worse (Heck, I've gotten detention for consuming coffee because I had ADHD. "Concerned teachers" they called it).

It’s a nightmare when dealing with doctors.
Another example, Benadryl makes me insanely hyper. One of my kids is same way.
Telling a doctor results in being labeled a liar.
At least a dozen medications that I respond in weird ways to.
A 4 hour adderall (20mg), lasts me about 30 hours.
