As the brains of those with ADHD mature, some individuals may repetitively engage in strategies that compensate for symptoms. These repetitive behaviors may result in the brain changes seen in those who went into remission. by Wagamaga
There’s no issue with hyper focusing, there’s a brief initial adjustment period. Like on Concerta you’ll get hungry less, there was a bit of eye tingle at the start and some people report a headache. But after about a week your body adjusts.
If anything I find that that it feels hard to move my focus away and find interruptions more irritating on Concerta than without.
I got it when I was 34 and it’s a literal night and day difference in how well I handle my job. I can sit down and just do work, and procrastinating is a deliberate choice rather than a doom spiral.

It’s very country dependent, I can’t answer that for you. It took me 1 visit to a private doctor and then it was just about finding the right dosage, it’s a regulated substance here so I have to go back every 3 months or so. It’s different in every country.
