That's such a personal question - how do you feel about medications? I don't take meds for my ADHD for my personal preference but I know others who do in my personal circle.

ritalin helped me so much. i miss it every day. it contributed to Tardive Dyskinesia and i ended up having to titrate off. talk with your doctor and see if you're a good candidate!!

If you feel like it’s hampering your ability to focus to the point where you can’t complete certain tasks and that bothers you, probably. If it doesn’t bother you and you’re okay with it, then probably not. It all depends on if you want to try it out or not

Depends on how you feel about it. If you think it'll be good, do it. If you think it'll be bad, don't.
