@MuddyBoots
The Adderall did make a difference in how well I read and thought (more linearly maybe?). I was on it a few years before having a manic episode and don't think it was the cause of the mania just normal bipolar crap. But IDK, I still wonder if I actually have ADHD or not. Right now, I've been able to concentrate to read, and I'm not on Adderall or anything for ADHD, but I have also gone years not being able to concentrate enough to read a single book. I do feel the racing thoughts I have associated with bipolar are better under control especially when I'm stable, and racing thoughts alone do a number on your concentration.
