Was your doctor reluctant to prescribe it for occasional use? As I understand it, providers typically expect you take ADHD meds daily.
I ask because my attention issues are task-dependent, but doctors tend to view even the suggestion of occasional use as a red flag for recreational abuse.

I don't think this is the case - mine recommends 5-6 days a week maximum to avoid building up tolerance, and I believe this is fairly standard advice. And occasional longer breaks are encouraged for the same reason.
Oddly enough I was prescribed it initially chronic fatigue syndrome and early onset dementia. Later figured out that Demtia was from autoimmune and other conditions
