You absolutely should talk to your doctor about this, like everyone is saying.

Me, I have a similar issue. I actually find that I can generate more creative ideas when I'm off my meds... but I'm incapable of following through on them. I work best when I try to write down or gather ideas during the long break stretches when I'm off them (usually in the summer, as I have SAD comorbid with ADHD -- the mild manic high that comes with sunshine helps with sticking to things) and then when I'm back on my drugs I try to follow through. I. Still get nothing done, because I'm me and a bit of a miserable failure at everything I do.

But. The point is here, that ADHD as a condition does that to you. Because you can't focus, you can't generate and hold creative ideas as easily when you're off the meds in some cases, and when you're on them that focus helps you hold onto ideas better. It's all a matter of brain chemistry and who you are.

So yeah, talk to your doctor. Also? My dad is almost 60 years old, and he still takes ADHD meds (he went on them in his 30s, when he was diagnosed around the same time I was.) So you're not alone if you use them your whole life. Some people need that, ADHD is not a condition you just "grow out of" -- it's with you your whole life.
