When people that don't have ADHD?

take ADHD medication, they get really happy and hyper
but when people that do have ADHD take their medication, they get somewhat depressed
why is that

Because one has a chemical imbalance in their brain and the other doesn't. The ADD meds stimulate the brain equalizing the brain function. In someone who doesn't have the condition, it would be like hooking up a car battery to a flashlight.

It's not "depressed" so much as just slowed down.

I've taken lots of non-prescribed AD-HD medicines, and none of them have ever made me feel "happy", just hyperactive.
And since it works in an opposite fashion for people who DO have AD-HD, it'll just calm them down.

If it makes someone you know seem sad, then it's probably just because hyper, get-up-and-do people are just happier in general.
