Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Adderal acts like a brain stimulant and that is why it helped you to complete all the pending files. But it is best to get it prescribed from a physician who after an examination will decide that you are the right candidate for the therapy.
Self medication like this can be harmful too.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
