I have a hard time without eyeglasses. Am I also an addict? ADHD medications are quite similar in their effect for those with this condition.

Agreed. Most medications work by correcting a chemical imbalance. If I understand it correctly it kind of makes our brain work more like that of someone without ADHD. With similar balances.

So I do see ADHD medication as similar to eyeglasses or hearing aids. A correction for the way our brains work.
