Could long term use of meds actually restore your brain to work like a NT brain?
In: Chemistry
Not a researcher in this area, but just read up a lot about ADHD. If it is a reduction in the brain’s ability to produce dopamine, medication won’t really fix that right. What ADHD medications really do is allow the brain to produce more dopamine which helps control the symptoms of ADHD. I think for a more ‘permanent’ cure we would have to have a way of fixing the brain’s ability to produce dopamine and I don’t think we know how to do that.
