ADD here too with severe tics and anxiety. This resonates with me to some extent. Physical workout does wonders for your mentality while also making your body healthier.

I am on Aduvanz (Adderall equivalent) and it lifts me up an extra notch, or at least; is a good alternative when time is sparse. But being active is the single most important thing every person can do.

I hope doctors will push harder on exercising in the future as we see more and more "cures" in the form of pills in circulation nowadays which, in many cases; could be fixed by a little change in lifestyle.

This especially goes for people fighting obesity, insomnia and anxiety. Start using your body and your body will start healing - and your mind will too. All that with the added benefit of (if any) zero side-effects.

Then it makes sense that I manage to get by without meds and "just" sports. My case is not as severe as yours, in a way I needed the meds to be compatible with a corporate IT job, without them the stress and responsibilities made me really anxious etc. But the last three weeks since I started running have been surprisingly zen to handle, even though I quit the meds cold turkey.

Definitely, yes.
