My subjective experience with adderall is that it makes you good at lower order, mechanical creativity and bad at higher order, "inspired" creativity. So, for example, you can write a lot, but much of it turns out to be less profound on rereading than you initially thought.

To improve the "inspired" creativity it is good to microdose with some acid and you'll be coding all night like a genius.

I've gotten mixed results. From 100% dextroamphetamine (Adderall is about 75% dextro and 25% levo, though also uses salts), I actually notice a distinct (but fleeting) increase in both kinds of creativity.

Writing, programming, and art all seem to be improved across all levels when taking it with a low tolerance.

Adderall definitely seems to hamper my creativity or have no effect, and makes me feel a bit more robotic.

It makes me great at local optimization and not much better at global optimization
