Did anyone else feel their brain come back after starting, like you could think clearly for the first time in years?

Feeling as if your brain came back, or as if you can think clearly for the first time in years, is a dramatic way some people describe a drop in impairing inattention after ADHD treatment. It is not evidence that the medicine regenerated the brain or restored a lost organ. Stimulants are used to reduce inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. If the change is persistent, distressing, or affecting daily functioning, bring a brief timeline to the prescribing clinician rather than changing the dose independently.
