I commit the "frequent mistakes and unfinished products" only when I'm not on medication. I take Addwize, a generic version of Ritalin available in India.

I'm one of those guys who cant function without meds.
Downsides:well...I dont know how to answer this. Cause when I was not on meds( i.e. undiagnosed as ADD) I was the same as I am today when I dont take meds.
Apart from meds, I also take fish oil supps and exercise. Exercise is a must for blowing off steam. Read Dr.Amens book 'Healing Add'. He describes the different types of ADD, something which is mostly ignored by other psychiatrists. I have what he calls Limbic ADD- that is ADD+Depression.
