    ADHD and gambling

    Most gamblers are impulsive; is there a connection between ADHD and gambling?

    I've been diagnosed with ADHD years ago, I'm not a problem gambler but these reports make sense.
    I'm prescribed 40 milligrams of Adderall a day, makes me focused like a cobra.

    60mg a day for me. A 30 ** instant release when I wake up and a floater at lunchtime. I usually only take it twice a week when I really need to get a ton done at work. I feel like crap at the end of those days and can’t enjoy food or weed. I’m usually not great company either. Zombie status

    Yes. Diagnosed with ADHD in 3rd grade.

    They gave me Ritalin.

    Doctors first started me off on Ritalin, before Adderall was approved.

    I like them both.
    Two different animals, one I use to chill, the other one I use to get things done.
    I need my Adderall though.

    Hard to correlate, however, gambling and erectile dysfunction

    I tried Adderall. It's like legal coke. And not the really good coke.

    I prefer weed.
