Hmm… I don’t drink coffee. Maybe I should start.
It really depends on your flavor of attention deficit.
My personal brand never really came with the hyper activity. So while stimulants like caffeine sort of help, they mostly just don't seem to do anything.
My hyperactivity is mainly mental only. Brain going a million miles per hour without really being able to focus on any of it and never any downtime.
I drank eight cups of coffee every day for like six years at my last job. Then COVID hit and I didn’t drink much because I took a couple years off. Now I CANNOT drink coffee because it makes my body feel like my heart is going to explode. Adderall is fine, cocaine is fine. But caffeine RUINS me for hours of horrible unpleasantness. It’s wild.
