Summary
A Reddit user with long COVID described being given Adderall for brain fog. On the second day of taking it they reported major gastrointestinal issues and thought it might be best to quit coffee for a while. They said nothing about whether the stimulant helped the brain fog, and gave no account of how severe their illness was or how it later went.

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.
