That’s just a myth. Studies show that the drugs increase focus in everyone regardless of disease state. Surveys show that people with adhd take higher doses to get high as well.

I'm referring to the prescribed doses. I never intentionally tried to take a higher dose to "get high" , so I wouldn't know about that. But my point is non-adhd people who take normal doses prescribed for ADHD people likely feel something that ADHD people do not. The prescribed doses don't get us high.
