Reply to comment by [deleted] in ELI5 - Why do people react differently to adrenaline? by Replehsnatas
stimulants do not necessarily increase the levels of norepinephrine, and they most definitely don't on a systemic level. Drugs nowadays can be fine-tuned to work only in specific parts of our body.
if you are interested i would be happy to break down the mechanism of the drugs commonly used to treat adhd.

i apologise if that came out as rude, i didn't mean to. i am just a medical student and had the chance to develop a good understanding of how our body works, and i would have been genuinely happy to explain in easier terms, to the best of my abilities, what does drugs do.
I'll keep up the research :)
