What would the "recreational" affects of stimulants be? I sometimes take it on weekends, does that make it "recreational"? If it makes me happier through better conversations, less distractions, and less hating myself for not doing the one plate that's been sitting unrinsed for a week, is that "recreational"?

This is the kind of absurd thing that people say when they know drugs from 2000s teen comedies, I fear. Just cause you've vaguely heard about people doing adderal at parties doesn't mean it's anything like meth, which is the common layperson misunderstanding. It's not a difference in degree, but a difference in kind.
