since adhd is treated with amphetamine which is essentially a performance enhancing drug that boosts your focus/awareness/intensity. it's probably dangerous to think of your medicated self's potential as being truer than your natural self's. seems like a trap.
people can _choose_ if they want medication, how they feel on it, and what it helps them with. and it helps millions of people have normal productive lives without fear of inadequacy or ruin because of dysfunction or cognitive issues.
it's great if you or others don't believe in medication, but humanity has coped with drugs that affect performance for millennia.
the tendency to treat disorders with (often life-long) amphetamines and ssris is a relatively recent development. obviously it's your choice to ween or risk it (unless you're restrained in a facility) and it's not bullshit to advise caution generally but especially to anyone seeking "true potential" vs "normal life without suffering"
