I'd rate it above most, but we are not sure about the side effects since there are no long term studies on it

imo it's good for certain things like coding but significantly reduces lateral thinking / creativity

kinda gives you "mental tunnel vision"



I agree that it may not be suited for every situation, and I really, really wish there were more long-term studies, but at least the ones there are (that I'm aware of) do not suggest horrible results. Given that it produces great results for many people, I feel like we're missing a massive opportunity by focusing on "if you're not really ill, you don't need medication".
