A member asked:
Is there any other "as effective" ways to get the same results as medication for adult adhd? but i mean i wouldn't see the difference between them?

Sadly, no: If you have a well-established diagnosis, stimulant or non- stimulant medications address the neurochemical basis if adhd. Medications keep your brain's own Dopamine & norepinephrine circulating where needed for sustained attention. Cognitive-behavioral therapy & environmental manipulations are also important, even ada accommodations at work. See chadd.Org for info & support.
