I mean, it's a neurodevelopmental disorder that makes it hard for people to accomplish tasks. And what you're describing just seem like all the symptoms people with ADHD would have.

This isn't a perfect analogy, but it's kind of like saying a guy isn't a great runner because he tore his ACL and surgeons fixed it but it's still messed up, and saying he should've just never gotten the surgery.

You're blaming the medication when people with ADHD are already predisposed to not being able to complete things, have normal careers, and are at high risk for anxiety, depression and other things. You're just seeing what ADHD looks like.
