Summary
Diagnosed with ME/CFS 14 years ago and with ADHD 18 months ago, they have taken dexamphetamine as needed and are asking which scenarios it is best used for, such as social gatherings, household chores and study. It did not help them take in lectures but seemed to help them start an assignment. They are currently not taking it because of a heart condition but may be able to resume after heart surgery in a few months.

Their path
They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
