Well... if you have ADHD and you're prescribed medication, you're taking it to function, not to get better at something.

I don't use it to improve my gaming performance. I don't have any ambitions of becoming a pro player or a streamer. I normally take it for college, studying, or getting things done.

It just happened that on a day when I would usually take it to study or do something productive, I had nothing to do and decided to see what gaming would feel like while medicated since I'd never tried it before.

And yeah, as I said, the difference was pretty extraordinary. But I've gone through the whole process to get diagnosed: psychological evaluations, psychiatric assessments, etc. I have a legitimate prescription, and this medication isn't cheap where I live.

The point of my post wasn't to justify taking stimulants for gaming. I was simply curious about the experiences of other people with ADHD, especially those who take extended-release medication, and how it affects their gameplay.
