ADHD meds unlocked a new dimension of -social, normal people- fun previously inaccessible. Hanging out with people without annoying them, not being late to events, remembering to call friends.
But the -crazy- fun is still accessible. I'm more risk aware, but still get the unconventional ideas. And I can always drop meds for a day and have a "high" day with less productivity and more "crazy" ideas. And I don't mean crazy as a negative, more like an adjective that describes it well.
However, it's important to love yourself (and this can be practiced and trained) and all your aspects. Even your ADHD self without meds, even your depression and dark thoughts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9s9PbBfwDfo
Also, I went through a lot of meds, and one I ended up with was because the first one made me a little too much "robot" like for my own liking. I'm too used to being "me" and didn't like how much the first one changed me. But I'd rather people try for themselves than have an opinion based on mine.

What meds did you go through and then settle on if you don't mind sharing?
