I am confused by this post. Aren't stimulants the most common medication prescribed for ADHD?

Coffee is the wrong kind of stimulant, it is a band aid. It is like eating sugar to try to dampen cravings for protein, causes you to overeat sugar.

Yes, but they also can have side effects, some worse than dealing with ADHD. There are various non-stimulants like Atomoxetine which are also approved for ADHD and work for some that can't use the stimulants safely.
